Connected to your project.
See how it connects
Less spreadsheet upkeep. More time for the project.
When the brief changes, your numbers need to keep up. Tally brings the plan, costs and quote into one connected workflow.
One plan.
Daily, weekly or monthly.
Get into the daily detail or step back to see the month. Each view draws on the same plan, so you spend less time keeping separate sheets in sync.
- Allocate full days or fractions
- Move between detailed and wider views
- Keep the total planned effort connected
The resource plan moves between daily, weekly and monthly views. Daily shows the first week; weekly and monthly show October. The complete project remains 36 planned days.
See what a change
means for your budget.
An extra day has a cost. See it in the forecast as you adjust the plan, with your remaining budget and projected margin in view.
- Work towards a fixed fee or build an estimate
- Use internal costs and selling rates
- See resource time and allowances together
Fixed fee example: an extra producer day at £350 increases forecast cost from £14,400 to £14,750. The £24,000 budget stays fixed. Remaining budget becomes £9,250 and margin becomes 38.5%.
Your quote.
Connected to the plan.
Bring your planned work and allowances into a clear client quote. When the estimate changes, the numbers flow through without rebuilding a separate document.
- Present the scope by project stage
- Choose how to show allowances
- Print or save the quote as a PDF
Estimate example: increasing an allowance selling price by £600 updates project allowances from £4,000 to £4,600 and the draft quote total from £24,000 to £24,600. Previously exported PDFs do not update.

Why I built Tally
From one producer
to another.
“I built Tally from my own experience planning and costing creative projects. I wanted a clearer way to keep the resource plan, budget and client quote connected as projects change, with less time spent maintaining separate spreadsheets.”Founder of Tally
