Read full descriptionHide full description
Built around how theatre actually works. Not a generic project tool in a curtain-print skin. Every screen is designed around the rhythms of rehearsal, the relationships between roles, and the moments that matter. Announcements your cast can't miss One feed for your whole production. Pin announcements so they stay at the top. Mention a person, a role, or an entire group. Everyone tagged gets a push notification, not a message lost in a thread of 200. - Mention by role group: @Cast, @Band, @Crew, @Creative - Pinned announcements always stay visible - Push notifications so nothing gets missed Callsheets that build themselves The production manager enters the running order once: which scenes, who's in them, how long each takes. Callboard works out everyone's individual call time and sends each person only what they need to know. - Call times derived from the breakdown automatically - Each member sees their own call and estimated release - Mark scene coverage live during the rehearsal Notes on the fly Capture notes as they happen, tagged by type, while mentioning whoever needs to see them.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Casting Co at none against Callboard's 7. Callboard's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 9 days). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
