Hyss

For AV freelancers · Free

Get back behind the console.

Hyss does the whole business side: your availability, your invoices, your gear. And for you it’s completely free.

Free for freelancers. Every feature, every device, no card. The companies that hire you pay for their side.

Availability

Never answer that text again.

Set your month once and send one link. It updates itself, synced both ways with Google and Apple, so the page they bookmarked is right without you touching it.

They see the hours you are free, never who booked you or why. And events your own calendar marks Free never block you, so dinner with a friend does not make you look unavailable.

Invoicing

The invoice is already written.

A week of shows wraps and there are nine invoices to write. You do not write them. You approve them. Hours, rate and overtime come off the shift you worked and your saved rate card, and you never touch a keyboard.

Including the gigs that never came through Hyss. Your rate card works for every company you bill.

Your gear

That camera in your closet.

The company hiring you needs one anyway, and it does not have to come from a rental house. Put it on your profile with a day, three-day and week rate, and it earns on days you are out on somebody else’s show.

Agreement, deposit and proof of insurance are handled. You approve every booking.

Also included.

  • A public profile with your positions, competencies and reviews
  • W-9, COI and certifications shared on request. You decide who sees what
  • Every offer in one place, with conflicts flagged before you accept
  • Call sheets on your phone: dock, parking, contacts, run of show
  • Two-way sync with Google and Apple Calendar
  • Stripe payment links on any invoice: cards, ACH, Apple Pay
  • QuickBooks-ready CSV export
  • iOS and Android, and it works offline on a show floor

From a customer

“What used to take a week to accomplish has now been reduced to an hour or less, because now I can have everything in one place without having to write a million emails or make a million calls.”

It’s free. All of it.

Every feature, every device, no card. The production companies that hire you pay for their side.

Referral program

Introduce us to one, and we’ll pay you for it.

Tell us the company before you make the intro and we’ll lock it to you. When they sign and stay, that’s $200 plus 5% of their bill for twelve months, and their offers to you stop arriving as text messages.
