Know the real supplier market, award with confidence and automatically generate the documentation investors, tax authorities and auditors need — from day one of the project.
Market budget, estimated cost, variance and award progress — for each active production, at a glance.
In many productions, procurement decisions are made by email, phone or message. When a tax review, audit or investor arrives, reconstructing why each supplier was chosen and at what price can take weeks — and in many cases is simply not possible.
Visualnet structures the process from the start. Documentation is generated automatically, with no additional effort.
Without Visualnet
Scattered emails, informal comparisons, decisions with no documented justification. Manual reconstruction for any review.
With Visualnet
Structured process from day one. Sealed real-market benchmarks. Complete, exportable history, ready for any review.
130,000+ film and TV companies in Spain, Europe, the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada. The benchmark is real because the market is complete.
From the first request for proposals to the final award, with documentary evidence at every step.
The production company administrator creates the project, defines the production type (feature film, series, documentary...) and assigns one or more Production Managers to manage the requests for proposals. The history begins from this moment.
Production company → creates and delegatesThey select the activity from the catalogue (106 categories), describe the technical requirements and publish. The integrated AI assistant suggests improvements to the description to maximise the quality of supplier responses. On publishing, the system automatically notifies 100% of qualified suppliers for that activity and geography.
AI assistant · Automatic notificationEach supplier sees only their own bid — no competitor can see another's proposal. Bids can be edited until closing. The Production Manager receives real-time notification of each bid received.
Confidential process · No cross-visibilityThe platform automatically calculates and seals the market range: minimum, below average, average, above average and maximum. The Production Manager accesses the comparison view. The benchmark cannot be modified after closing — no administrator can alter it.
Sealed benchmark · ImmutableThe Production Manager selects the supplier. If the awarded price exceeds the market average, the platform requires a written justification before confirming. The award is immutable and recorded in the history with its justification.
Immutable award · NISR 4400Every action in the process is recorded with an identifier chained to the previous event. Exportable as PDF for auditors, tax incentive bodies, investors or any third-party reviewer. Valid before AEAT (Spain), HMRC (United Kingdom) and IRS (United States).
Exportable · NISR 4400 · IRC §482Visualnet is designed for the Production Manager to work with order from the start of the project, not to add approval layers. The flow is fast, the system does the heavy lifting and every decision is documented automatically.
✦ Integrated AI assistant
When drafting the request for proposals, the assistant suggests improvements to the technical description to maximise the quality and comparability of supplier responses.
Automatic notification
On publishing, the system automatically notifies all qualified suppliers. No searching for contacts or sending manual emails.
History always available
Each project has its complete history accessible at any time. Exportable with one click to share with finance, the production company or third-party reviewers.
Real comparison view: bids ranked by market position, sealed benchmark and documented award.
Service producers working for major US studios in Spain and the UK operate under growing tax scrutiny. In Spain, the AEAT has intensified inspections of Art. 36.2 LIS deductions on international productions. The risk is not theoretical: a demand to repay an incentive already received — with interest and penalties — can far exceed the initial benefit, with consequences that reach the American studio financing the production.
Visualnet is the evidence that demonstrates every euro of the technical production budget was contracted at market rate, with a documented competitive process and full traceability. Not a manual report prepared after the fact — an immutable history generated in real time during the process.
The Spanish film and TV production deduction requires evidence that technical production budget expenditure is real and at market price. Visualnet's sealed history — line by line, with market benchmark — is exactly that evidence.
BFI tax credits (High-End TV, Film Tax Relief) require arm's length pricing in service procurement. Visualnet's documented process satisfies HMRC due diligence requirements.
When a US studio finances a production in Europe, service procurement falls under the scope of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and SOX internal controls. Visualnet's history provides the documentation studio compliance teams need.
Visualnet's Tech Fee is an eligible production expense for the Art. 36.2 LIS deduction. The platform that protects the incentive is included in the incentive.
The cost depends on the number of requests for proposals you publish and the eligible awarded technical production budget at project close.
For projects in development. Indicative market benchmark, without binding award.
For real pre-production. Binding award, sealed benchmark and full NISR 4400 certification.
Applied at project close, on the sum of the eligible technical production budget awarded in Phase B. Calculated exclusively by the system.
Minimum Tech Fee per project: €5,000 + VAT. Studios and broadcasters have a differentiated rate — see pricing for Studios. Visualnet's Tech Fee is an eligible expense for the Art. 36.2 LIS deduction.
For a project with €150,000 of eligible technical production budget, the cost equals 3.28% of the total — with full traceability and NISR 4400-certifiable history. For higher-volume projects, the Tech Fee decreases progressively to 1.50%.
Prepaid wallet model
Platform access is free. The minimum initial deposit is €500 + VAT. Requests for proposals are automatically deducted from the balance on publishing. Unused balance can be requested as a refund.
Payment methods
Visa, Mastercard and American Express. Bank transfer for amounts over €500. Processed via Stripe with PCI DSS certification.
No. The model is entirely pay-per-use: no monthly fee, no minimum commitment and no sign-up cost. You only pay when you publish a request for proposals and when you close a project with a Phase B award.
It is the sum of all winning bids in Phase B requests for proposals within the project. It is calculated exclusively by the system at closing — it is never a user-declared or estimated figure.
Fees are only deducted at the exact moment of publishing. If a request is created but not published, there is no charge.
Certification does not depend on a minimum number of responses. The system notifies 100% of qualified suppliers. If the market responds with one bid, the process is certifiable. If it responds with twenty, the benchmark is more complete. In both cases the process is beyond reproach.
All prices shown are exclusive of VAT. Applicable VAT is added at the time of charge. EU companies with a valid VAT number may apply the reverse charge mechanism.
