Inside the pack14 documents
Where this starts
The opportunity on one page: what it is, what checked out, and what we do not claim.
What you would be selling
The thing that changes hands for money, written as an offer a buyer could accept today.
The field: who is already there
The people already selling into this, what they charge, and where they leave the door open.
The numbers
Pricing and the numbers behind it. Anything we could not verify is marked missing, never made up.
What would sink this
The case against, at full strength, so you meet the objection here rather than from a customer.
What you build
What to build, in what order, on what stack. Includes the non-goals for v1 and what would kill this.
How the first customers find you
Where your first customers come from. Named channels, the beachhead to start in, and the signals that say stop.
How it runs once it works
How it runs once someone pays. Delivery, capacity limits, the compliance you cannot skip, and where the manual work sits.
Your first fortnight
Six steps for days one to seven: confirm the buyer, size the smallest paid offer, pick one channel.
The toolkit
The named tools, services and suppliers this runs on, with what each one is actually for.
Copy you can paste
Launch copy you can send today: listing page, outreach, social. Claim-checked like the research.
How to know in 30 days
The one month test: what to run, what number to watch, and the reading that says walk away.
Everything we read, once
Each check, what it found, and the source behind it, without hunting through the plans.
Every check, in full38 sources
Every check this pack faced, each verdict, and a clickable source behind every claim.

Who pays
Line producers and production company owners wrapping Georgia shoots, reached through the Georgia Production Partnership's events and workshops and the Georgia Sourcebook directory.
How we tried to kill it
Each check is an attack, not a rubber stamp. An idea dies on the first check where cited evidence goes against it. This one survived all 8. Finding nothing is not the same as finding a green light; see how each check works on /how-it-works.
The 6 below run on every idea, whatever it is. This one's lane ran 2 more on top, for 8 in all.
Exactly what this pack covers, plus a blurred look at the document you receive.
GA film production compliance AI for indie producers
01 · A plan for a tool that reads a production's wrap report and vendor invoices, then builds the per-vendor and per-employee Georgia spend tables the Department of Revenue asks for in its audit procedures
Every project certified on or after 1 January 2023 must go through a formal audit to get paid.
Week 3, withholding and loan-outs. Payments to loan-out companies are subject to withholding unless the payment reimburses expenses.
