Get vs Unabase

You are choosing where your creative business will live: budgets, clients, projects, and what you ultimately hand to the client. Unabase is a financial specialist for LATAM audiovisual production companies. Get is a broader platform for creatives in general, designed for client delivery and built with a fast product pace.

If you are here, you have probably outgrown spreadsheets, landed on something like Unabase, and now the deeper questions are showing up: people on the team who are not audiovisual production cannot find where to plug in, the quotes you send to clients do not quite look the part, and every time you ask for an improvement the answer is "it is on the roadmap." Unabase is a solid, mature tool for a specific world, and the honest question is not which is better in the abstract, but which fits the way your creative business is growing today.

What Unabase does best

Unabase has years of mileage specifically in LATAM audiovisual production companies, and it shows. Beyond budgeting, it runs purchase orders at scale — they cite 1,000+ POs daily on their larger accounts —, projects estimated final cost per line (EFC), delivers formal accounting information (chart of accounts, general ledger, balance sheet), and includes native iOS and Android apps for capturing expenses on set. If your business is purely a mid-sized or large audiovisual production company and the priority is operating money, not just estimating it, that depth is real and worth it.

Where Get is different

Get starts from a different question: how do I run my whole creative business in one platform, not just the budgets of one production company? That is why clients and projects sit at the center of the product, not as a side tab, and why Get serves production companies, photographers, designers, agencies, and studios equally well. When it is time to deliver, Get includes a visual PDF editor with several branded templates (your logo, colors, typography) and a public share link so clients can open the budget without creating an account. This is where the difference actually shows up: Unabase exports financial reports designed for internal use, not client-ready proposals. And underneath, the interface is built so anyone on the team can step in and move on day one, without a heavy learning curve.

A platform that keeps moving

This is hard to show in a table but it matters: Get is in a very active product stage, shipping new features almost every week — templates, editor improvements, AI, new export formats, team management — with a tight loop with users. Unabase is a stable, mature tool, which has its advantages, but the pace of change is different. If you want a tool that grows with you, that difference matters.

Pricing and how you start, honestly

Unabase starts at USD 40 per month on the Freelance plan with a 3-month trial, moves up to USD 250 per month on Team (3 users) and USD 550 per month on Business (10 users). There is no permanent free plan. Get has a free plan you can start on today, no credit card, plus paid plans for teams that need more. If you want to actually try the tool before committing budget, that difference matters.

Which should you choose?

Choose Unabase if you are a mid-sized or large LATAM audiovisual production company and your priority is operating the money deeply: purchase orders, EFC, general ledger, accounting reporting, and mobile apps for capturing expenses on set. Choose Get if your creative business goes beyond an audiovisual production company, if you care about what you hand to the client, if you value a platform that improves every week, and if you prefer to start free with a modern interface the team understands without a manual.
