TIK Manager is community driven

Tik Manager has become my go-to Project Management platform for my side hustle.
As a rigger, I struggled with asset management, but this tool has completely transformed how I handle projects.

Tik Manager is incredibly focused and, therefore, lightweight, intuitive, and a joy to use. It's powerful out of the box but also allows me to build custom extensions to refine my pipeline. I prefer this over large, bloated tools that can confuse my team.

Switching between different software used to slow me down, but Tik Manager keeps everything in one place, no matter the DCC. It’s made collaborating with artists from different departments so much easier.
