Sessions
The timer starts when your DAW opens and pauses when you go idle.
Versions
Roll back to any version, see what changed in it, and restore it in one click.
Sharing
A waveform player in the browser, with comments pinned to the timeline.
Sync
Back up on one computer and the new version is one click away on the other. Open the project on both and you're warned, and both saves are kept.
Financial
See which work actually pays, and who still owes you.
Desktop app
Back up a project once (new ones start on their own) and every save after that is a version. It spots your DAW and updates itself on Windows and macOS.
Each project lists its plugins and flags the ones missing on another of your computers, for Ableton Live, Cubase and FL Studio.
In an Ableton Live set, Prodboard spots samples played from outside the project folder, which a backup would miss, and can back them up with the project.
When Ableton Live, Cubase or FL Studio crashes, Prodboard keeps a copy of the DAW's own recovery files, so declining its recovery prompt is not the end.
Clients approve a mix or ask for changes, and can leave a voice note at a moment in the track. A finished mix or master sent back lands in the project as a new version once you accept it.
Record an idea on your phone, in the browser. File it into a project and it is waiting in that project's folder on your computer, ready to drag into your DAW.
One minute, on Windows or macOS.
Prodboard times your sessions. Back up a project once and every save after that is a version.
Versions, shares and budgets in one place.
The desktop app does the heavy lifting: it spots your DAW, times your sessions and keeps a version of every save once a project is backed up. And it updates itself.

Not unless you ask. Backing up only reads and copies; the one thing it adds is a tiny .prodboard ID file, so your other computers recognize the project. Prodboard writes into a project only when you ask it to, for example when you restore a version or accept files sent back to you. A restore first saves the current state as a version and moves what it replaces into a _prodboard_trash folder rather than deleting it.
14 days with 100 GB and 2 computers, and no payment details. Sync between the studio and the laptop and share analytics are included. The AI summaries and covers come with a paid plan; the trial gets a one-time preview of the AI-written Today's plan on its third day. Pick a plan when you're ready and it all carries over.
No. Identical files are stored once, Git-style, and only changed files upload. A new version usually adds megabytes.
