About

RigDoc

Features
Read full description

RigDoc is the rigging document, start to finish. Import the point list, lay it out on the stage, verify it against the venue grid, and walk out with paperwork the crew can actually use. PLOT AND MARKOUT Place rigging points and see where they land. Check them against the venue grid before the truck shows up. Print the markout at Letter, A4, A3 or 11×17 — measured, not eyeballed. GEAR LISTS Motors, spansets, shackles and steel, calculated from the points in the show. Pull sheets that match the plot instead of a guess. WEIGHT AND LOAD Weight tables per point and per position, so the numbers you hand over are the numbers on the plot. EXPORT Rigging plots, weight tables, labels and cover pages as PDF or Excel, with your company details on every page. YOUR FILES, YOUR DISK Import from CSV. Projects are files: save them where you want, send them how you want. Nothing lives on someone else's server, and RigDoc collects no data. ONE SUBSCRIPTION, EVERY DEVICE Mac, iPad and iPhone. SUBSCRIPTION RigDoc requires a subscription, and a free trial is included. After the trial, choose monthly or yearly. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings.
