Built to save time, streamline the budgeting process, and give you clarity and control at every stage.
Drop in a brief or a past budget — Piper turns it into a structured draft with categorized line items, ready to edit.
The blank page is the worst part of any new event. Piper reads your brief and generates a structured starting point. Drop in last year's file and it adapts. You're editing within minutes, not hours.
Enter numbers and line items yourself, or drop them in from an email, a vendor estimate, or a written or verbal prompt.
No single way to get costs into a budget works for every situation. Paste, upload, type, or dictate — Piper places it in the right category and moves on.
Piper holds your per-client context — markups, preferences, past structures — and surfaces it the moment you need it.
Piper retains your past budget structures, client details, and the context that makes each relationship different. When you're starting something new or want a recommendation, just ask — it pulls the right context forward.
Switch between clients and projects from one sidebar. Each one comes with its own saved rate cards.
House Accounts gives each client their own space — preferences, rate cards, and history that belong to them. Switch from one client to the next in a single click. Nothing bleeds across.
A dedicated, view-only space for clients to review, comment, and approve. No more email chains or formatting headaches.
Client Side gives your client a clean, read-only view of exactly what you want them to see. They comment in context, approve with one click, and the signed-off version is locked in Piper permanently.
Discuss any line item without leaving the budget.
Piper puts the conversation directly on the line item. Comment, reply, tag a teammate, resolve when it's handled. The full context stays with the number — forever.
Freeze to stay in sync. Lock a section — or the whole budget — so overlapping edits can't introduce errors while your team works in parallel.
Get one anytime: Piper flags missing contingency, markup gaps, and scope holes.
Piper's Second Opinion runs a quiet review whenever you ask — or automatically before you send to a client. It catches the things that are easy to miss when you're moving fast.
Every change tracked, with live and approved states you can roll back to.
Piper logs every edit automatically — who changed it, when, and what it was before. Live versions keep moving; approved versions are locked. Roll back to any state at any time.
Your margin, recalculated in real time with every change.
Costs shift, scope expands, headcount moves. Piper recalculates your gross margin with every edit — you always know exactly what you're working with, before the invoice goes out.
Every project, client, and margin in one place. A view from the top of your whole studio.
Top Line pulls every active project into a single studio dashboard — budget totals, margin percentages, approval status, all live, all in one place.
