Lens camera at Harlow Antiques shooting a pair of lamps for prop 06, with Front, Side and Detail ticked and an “Offline · saving to phone” badge.

Prep week runs on group chats, camera rolls and one person’s memory.

PropLens puts it all in one list your whole department works from.

01Source

Questions

Who is PropLens for?

Art departments on commercials, film and TV: prop masters, set decorators, buyers, coordinators and the crew working with them. You sign up and start yourself, with no studio contract or sales call.

Does the AI file things without asking?

No. PropLens suggests groups and categories for your photos, and every suggestion waits for you to accept, edit or ignore it.

Do I need the phone app?

No. Everything works in the browser. Lens is an optional iPhone app for photographing props on location. With no signal, photos save to the phone and upload when you’re back in range.

What does it cost?

Basic is R499 ($29) a month for your prop library, with you and up to four crew. Pro is R999 ($59) a month and adds tasks, scheduling and the calendar, with unlimited crew.

How does the free trial work?

Both plans start with 7 days free. We take your card when you start and charge it on day 8, then monthly. Cancel before then and you won’t be charged.

Do my crew need to pay?

No. Whoever owns the project covers the crew. Anyone you invite works for free, and viewers are always unlimited.

What happens to a project after the shoot?

A week after a project’s end date it locks and becomes read only, so the record stays as it was on the day you wrapped. Anyone can still view and export it, and an admin can reopen it by moving the end date.

What happens if I cancel?

Projects you own become read only for 30 days, so you can still view and export everything. After that they’re deleted.

Who owns my data?

You do. We use your content only to run and improve PropLens, and we don’t sell personal information. The privacy policy has the details.
