The problem

Built because the tool didn't exist.

"You're in prep, someone asks how much media you need, and you're reaching for a spreadsheet you built three jobs ago — hoping the numbers still make sense."

Every DIT and technical manager knows the moment. Broadcast Storage Calculator was built to fix it. One tool. Every camera. Every codec. The right number, instantly.
