CrewCue digitizes the analog schedule for live productions. Whether it's a concert, festival, theater, or tour - your entire production schedule becomes an interactive live ticker. Use CrewCue solo for your own events or together with a crew. LIVE TICKER FOR YOUR PRODUCTION Follow your production schedule in real time: What's happening now, what's coming next, how much time is left. With timers, weather forecasts per timeslot, and delay indicators. The live ticker doesn't just run in the app – it automatically extends to your lock screen, the Dynamic Island, and Apple Watch. REAL-TIME COMMUNICATION Send urgent messages to your entire crew - directly into the live ticker of all checked-in members. Whether it's a schedule change, announcement, or weather warning: Everyone is instantly informed. DELAYS & SCHEDULE CHANGES Delays happen. CrewCue shifts affected timeslots in real time and notifies all crew members via push. CREATE EVENTS Create events manually or scan existing schedules. The built-in document recognition extracts timeslots, times, and event details automatically. Fill in missing details in the form. TEAM MANAGEMENT Optional: Invite your crew via email, manage roles, and keep track of who's checked in. Teams are created on our website. CHECK-IN SYSTEM Crew members check themselves in - up to one hour before the event starts. Automatic checkout after the last timeslot keeps things organized. SOLO MODE Use without a team. Scan schedules, start the live ticker, and manage your documents - all on your own. Available as a monthly subscription.
