Version 1.23

We’re excited to announce Cinapse 1.23, one of our biggest updates yet. It's packed with powerful upgrades to customization, layout control, speed, and data logic. Whether you're prepping a studio feature or managing an indie shoot, these new features give you more precision, flexibility, and speed at every stage of the schedule.

As part of this release, we’ve completed a major 6+ month project that focused exclusively on improving Cinapse’s data syncing infrastructure. This project delivers a dramatic boost in performance and reliability across the platform. Our new syncing system ensures that data is always available offline-first and built to handle even the largest episodic files and most complex crossboarded schedules with ease.

We are using the the same core technology trusted by hospital networks and global corporations, engineered for maximum security, resilience, and scale.

The result? A faster, more stable Cinapse, built to grow with your production and the industry.

Import & Export Layout and Color Templates

The #1 most requested feature. Now, you can quickly move your visual and structural preferences for Layouts and Colors between productions from the Layout Manager or Color Palette Manager.

Account Preferences

Personalize your Cinapse experience with:

• My Layout Templates to build and save your preferred layouts
• My Color Templates for faster color setup across productions
• Date formatting (American MM/DD/YYYY or European DD/MM/YYYY)

‍

DOODs. Rebuilt from scratch.

We rebuilt the Day out of Days algorithm from the ground up for better accuracy, speed, and reliability, especially on crossboarded, multi-unit schedules.

On one of our largest projects to date (a 170 day production for Warner Bros.) we reduced the DOOD report generation time by 98.3%, cutting it down to just 3 seconds to generate a 200 page PDF.

Customize every single category color.

Now you can completely customize your colors for every category, bringing more clarity and visual control to your schedules.
