For Crew, By Crew

The complete show. One platform.

From the production office to the breakout room, video village to the client post-con, CrewCall unifies your event management on a single platform. Build sessions, track speakers, version content, manage travel, and protect your margin – with unparalleled intelligence built-in. Say hello to one source of truth. Say goodbye to spreadsheet sprawl across multiple apps, versioning errors, late night crew letter writing, and unexpected hour burn.

CrewCall was built by actual show producers and crew staff who have spent 20+ years in backstage hallways and dark ballrooms. We’ve built the tool we always wished we had.

The CrewCall event dashboard

Two looks, one app

Small details make ALL the difference.

Work Mode for front-of-house and the production office. Show Mode for behind the curtain.

One tap switches the whole app, and CrewCall remembers your choice on every device.

Everything your event, crew, clients need.

And when we say everything, we pretty much mean it. Most tools pick a lane – the rundown, or the crew, or the budget – which leaves you to reconcile the rest in a spreadsheet at 1am. CrewCall is a complete solution, capturing all aspects of your show in an integrated way. Enter “it”, whatever “it” is, once and let it do its work across your show.

Your labor budget reads from the hours your crew actually logged. Your content library knows which cue plays the file. Your estimate freezes the wording the client signed.

Getting to show day takes a thousand small details… this is where they live, intelligently.

Run of Show

Build sessions, segments, and cues in one hierarchy, then run the day against it. CrewCall tracks actual times as you go and shows variance live, so everyone knows if you're over or under – while there's still time to fix it.

  • Sessions → segments → cues with drag-and-drop ordering
  • Live time tracking with running variance and smart alerts
  • Follow mode so the whole crew sees the current cue
  • Cue presets, types, and validation to catch mistakes early
  • Rehearsal planner and teleprompter scripts built in
  • Import your existing rundown from a spreadsheet

Crew, Hours & Labor

Manage teams, roles, and per-resource permissions, then track every hour against budget. Planned versus actual, burn by team, and labor cost roll-ups – the numbers your producer asks for, without the spreadsheet archaeology.

  • Crew teams, role assignments, and org charts
  • Hour budgets with planned-vs-actual burn tracking
  • Labor cost calculation with rates and overtime rules per person
  • Crew letters and granular per-person permissions

Show Budgeting

Build the budget where the show already lives. Hard costs, passthroughs, and labor in one worksheet, with markup that inherits instead of being retyped on every line. Labor reads from Crew Hours, so when the hours move, the budget moves with them.

  • Multiple budgets per show, with an all-budgets roll-up
  • Hard, passthrough, and labor lines with inherited markup
  • Labor costed from Crew Hours, including overtime rules
  • Estimates freeze as numbered snapshots – terms and branding copied in, never re-referenced
  • Change orders carry delta lines and a cause, and approving one cuts a revision
  • Receipts and vendor invoices parse with AI, then post to a single ledger

Travel & Lodging

Every flight, hotel block, and reservation for every person on the show – with live flight status and per-person itineraries. Forward a confirmation email and CrewCall parses it into structured travel records for you.

  • Flights with live status tracking
  • Hotel blocks, reservations, and confirmations
  • Per-person itineraries and travel reports
  • Paste-from-email import for flights and hotels
  • Crew enter their emergency contacts and dietary and health considerations to keep in the emergency binder

Communications

Send branded email from templates, let crew opt in to text alerts for the updates they choose, and keep event chat in the same place as everything else. Batches, scheduling, and delivery history included, so "did everyone get the call time?" has an answer.

  • Branded email templates with batch sends and scheduling
  • Opt in text alerts for schedule, travel and assignment changes
  • Built-in event chat with your team
  • Full send history and delivery tracking

Content & Media

Track show content from first draft to screens – with version control, categories, and a media tracker that shows what's received, what's approved, and what's still missing a week out.

  • Content library with version history
  • Media tracker for received / approved / missing status
  • Categories and event resources for crew documents
  • Cloud storage integrations

Cloud Sync

Mirror an event's content into your own Dropbox, Google Drive, or Box on a schedule you set. CrewCall tells you exactly what it is about to move before it moves it – so nobody starts a 40GB transfer on venue wifi by accident.

  • Mirror into your own Dropbox, Google Drive, or Box
  • Pick the scope: latest version, one previous kept, or final files only
  • One flat folder or a folder per category – your call
  • See the plan first: files to add, update, remove, and total size
  • Runs automatically as content changes, with an hourly catch-up sweep
  • Or take the whole show offline as a ZIP with a browsable index that needs no network

Portfolio

One event is a production. Twenty of them is a business. Portfolio sits above the shows and answers the questions a single event never can: where the margin actually went, which venues cost you, and what the pipeline is really worth.

  • 10 headline figures across every show, each drilling into the report behind it
  • 14 reports – budget summary, hours and overtime, utilisation, pipeline, vendor spend, estimate accuracy, client profitability, and more
  • A client book and venue registry shared across events, with house notes on every venue
  • Board deck out to HTML, PDF, or PowerPoint, and saved views emailed on a cadence
  • A client portal where the client sees the price they agreed to and nothing about your cost

CrewCall AI chat assistant

Ask your event anything

"Who hasn't confirmed their flight?" "What's left in the audio budget?" The AI assistant answers from your live event data.

The last button of the show

Archiving that eliminates the rage.

Archiving is definitely not the fun part. That's why once a show is closed, you can push a button (ONE BUTTON!) and CrewCall archives your show. Literally everything. Export every ROS, every session, every calendar entry, speaker, budget, crew meal, email, everything. And files? Yep every file (you choose ALL files, or FINAL files), along with an AI review of your production for insights you may have missed.

It isn't glamorous, but it's got to be done, and now it's painless.
