The Stellar Photometry Assistant, SPA, is a stand alone software package for time-series photometry reduction and analysis slated for an initial test release in spring 2008. The goal of SPA is to be simple, powerful, and intuitive. SPA was born out of complications in studying the pulsating DB white dwarf EC20058-5234 (QU Tel) due to the proximity of its nearby companions. SPA also addresses the Whole Earth Telescope's (WET) demand for large scale rapid data reduction from multiple sites. SPA is being developed in Matlab by the Delaware Asteroseismologic Research Center (DARC) in collaboration with the University of Delaware and the Mount Cuba Astronomical Observatory. The need for SPA is addressed, and key features of the program are listed and discussed.
