The.Team provides payroll, business affairs, and talent management services for advertising, music, and live entertainment. It handles employer-of-record payroll for union and non-union talent, crew, musicians, and staff, and offers cloud-based production accounting for cost management, job costing, and profit analysis. For talent and rights holders, it processes payments (session fees and residuals), manages contracts, and tracks licensed content and publishing administration. Its goal is to help productions pay talent accurately, stay compliant, and manage costs and rights, supported by its 2021 acquisition by Cast & Crew to expand reach.
