- Title: Kitsu on Cloudron - Collaboration Platform for Animation And VFX Studios
- Main Page: https://www.cg-wire.com/kitsu
- Git: https://github.com/cgwire/kitsu.git
- Licence: AGPL 3-0
- Docker: Yes (not for production) https://github.com/cgwire/kitsu-docker
- Demo: 1 month free trial https://account.cg-wire.com/signup
- Installation docs: https://kitsu.cg-wire.com/installation/#cloud-hosting
- Summary: Kitsu is a collaboration platform designed for animation and VFX studios, offering a range of features to streamline production processes.
Team Collaboration: Keeps everyone on the same page with seamless communication and collaboration tools.
Production Tracker: Provides a 360° view of your data, helps schedule work, and sets expectations.
Review Engine: Allows for reviewing consecutive shots, comparing versions, and performing team reviews.
*Casting Management: Manages breakdowns, links assets together, and exports casting information.
Studio Database: Shares data across the entire studio, boosting the pipeline with a simple Python API.
- Notes: I'm developing a non-profit animation studio as a hobby. This tool is a jewel to organise and track an animation production with a team. I know it's niche and the chances of it being picked up and available on Cloudron one day are slim. However, I submit it here mainly as a reference and to possibly find a freelancer willing to take on the packaging job.

@osobo the self-hosting plans are extremely expensive - https://www.cg-wire.com/pricing . This seems to target large enterprises, or did I miss something ?

I think those prices are for them managing stuff on your own servers.
If you look at https://www.cg-wire.com/self-hosted it says:
Kitsu is free and open-source software, meaning you can install and use it at no cost.

Yes, correct. Self-hosting is free but you need to install and manage yourself the setup and updates.
