Where Object & Order pulls ahead
Orders track themselves
Programa has no email integration and no automated order tracking. When a vendor ships a product, you update the status by hand. Object & Order's AI reads your inbox, finds the confirmation email, extracts the PO and tracking number, and updates your schedule — all without you lifting a finger.
- AI monitors Gmail and Outlook for order updates
- PO numbers auto-matched to schedule rows
- Carrier tracking from FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL
- PDF attachments parsed for order details
Edit together. In real time.
Programa offers multiple views (Kanban, list, timeline) but doesn't support live multi-user editing within a schedule. Object & Order lets your entire team work on the same document simultaneously, with presence indicators and instant sync.
- Simultaneous multi-user editing
- Live presence shows who's viewing
- Full edit history with revert
- No version conflicts or stale data
Stop paying per seat
At $47–59 per user per month, a three-person studio pays $140–$177/month for Programa. Object & Order is free for your entire team — unlimited users, unlimited features. You only pay a transaction fee when you purchase through the platform.
- $0/month for every team member
- No feature tiers or gating
- AI order tracking included
- Transaction fee only on purchases
