Senda beta

Senda

A local pipeline for small creative projects

Senda helps artists, freelancers, and small studios organize creative projects from a single local interface. Scan project folders, review renders, track versions, log work time, and create invoices without depending on external pipeline services. Available in English and Spanish.

Overview

Your project folder, turned into a control panel

Most small creative projects live inside folders: renders, source files, outputs, previews, notes, versions, and deliveries. Senda reads that structure and turns it into a clear dashboard where you can understand what is happening in each project at a glance.

Project Insight

See what your projects are really using

Senda gives you a visual overview of your projects folder, including how much space each project occupies, which projects have been active recently, how much free disk space remains, and where potential review items or warnings may need attention.

View project storage usage at a glance.

Spot large projects before they become a disk problem.

Check recent activity, renders in review, warnings, and available space.

Software Launcher

Open your creative tools from one place

Senda can detect the creative software installed on your workstation and show it in a launcher inside the Home screen. From there, you can quickly open the tools you use most often without searching through folders or shortcuts.

Detect installed software such as Nuke, DaVinci Resolve, Maya, Blender, Photoshop, After Effects, Unreal Engine, OpenRV, and more.

Launch configured applications directly from Senda.

Open detected work files from each project using the right software, so you can jump from project management to production work faster.

Project Scanning

Scan your local projects folder and see project size, activity, recent files, warnings, renders, outputs, and available disk space.

Render Review

Group renders by shot and version, detect image sequences as a single render, generate thumbnails, and open media in OpenRV.

Output Tracking

Organize deliverables by shot, sequence, version, status, and artist assignment.

Work Files

Detect work files from Nuke, Fusion, Maya, Blender, Photoshop, After Effects, Unreal Engine, and more.

Time Logs

Track working time by project, task, or shot. Start timers, edit entries, and review logs by date.

Billing and Bids

Create PDF invoices and bids using project data, time logs, taxes, client information, and editable templates.

Review shots and versions

Keep renders, plates, outputs, sequences, artists, and approval status organized in one place.

Track working time

Log time manually or with the built-in timer, then use that information later for billing.

Create invoices easily

Use a guided workflow to prepare professional PDF invoices and bids.

Visual Themes

Make Senda feel like your own workspace

Senda includes several visual themes designed for different moods and ways of working: clean system themes, darker interfaces, playful styles, retro looks, cinematic sci-fi layouts, and more expressive designs.

Themes do not change how Senda works. They simply let each user shape the interface into something more comfortable, personal, and enjoyable.
