documentary, film, multi-camera scripted
Run-of-show built by a documentary studio — for documentary and film crews.
CueHound was built by 10 Lives Studios — a documentary, TV, and film studio in London — and the documentary surface gets the founder-team-uses-it-daily treatment. Call sheets, shot lists, and on-set rundowns share one source of truth across the producer, AC, scripty, and DP. The mobile prompter doubles as a clean handheld read for talent on location. Offline operation is the default, not an edge case — most documentary shoots happen where Wi-Fi doesn't.
problems we hear
What documentary + film crews tell us — and what CueHound does about it.
"Call sheets, shot lists, and the day's run-of-show all live in separate Google Docs and someone is always looking at a stale copy."
One canonical rundown. Call sheet view, shot-list view, prompter view, and director's run-of-show view are projections of the same data. Edit once.
"Talent on location uses a clamped iPad with a janky free prompter app that won't auto-scroll at their delivery pace."
CueHound's native iOS and Android teleprompter has voice-paced auto-scroll using on-device Whisper.cpp — no internet needed for the pacing logic itself.
"We're shooting in a remote location with no signal and the producer's tool needs the cloud."
Local Show Engine first. Eight-hour offline operation by design. The cloud is for backup and the AI proposals; the cue path stays local.
"The production company has eight active projects and none of them justify a full-team SaaS subscription."
Each project can run on a $49 Event Pass for 30 days, scoped to the active production. When the show wraps, the seats roll off automatically.
built for the documentary + film workflow
What you actually get.
Offline-first by design
Every cue, every rundown edit, every prompter scroll runs from the local Show Engine. Eight-hour offline operation guaranteed for the longest documentary shoot day.
Mobile teleprompter for talent on location
Native iOS and Android prompter with mirror, flip, three-tap zones, and voice-paced auto-scroll. Run it on a clamped iPad behind the lens or on the talent's own phone.
