I build production software between gigs.

Because the tools I needed on show day didn't exist. Mantaglow is eight of them, sharing one account and one org — truck packs that hand off to pixel maps, pixel maps that hand off to QC, everything in the same place instead of eight tabs and a spreadsheet nobody else can open.

Invite-only while I talk to the first fifty people. See the tools first if you want.

The toolkit

One account, one org. Free during beta, founding pricing after. Each one started as a problem I couldn't solve with anything else on the market. Hover a card to see what's inside.

How it fits together

One inventory. Three productions.

LoadOut is the source of truth for every piece of gear you own. Live event, broadcast, and film crews pull from the same catalog — then run the chain that fits the job.

The hub

LoadOut

Your gear catalog — every panel, every cable, every serial. Every other app pulls from here.

Live event

Load in. Call the show.

Pixel map the wall, pack the truck, QC the panels on the floor, then call cues from front of house.

  • PixelGrid
    Map the wall
  • Pack'd
    Plan the truck
  • QCheck
    QC the panels
  • ShowCall
    Call cues
Broadcast

Lock the clock. Run the show.

Sync timecode across every camera, deck, and audio chain, then plan the broadcast to the frame.

  • TimeLock
    LTC timecode + sync
  • ShowBuild
    Camera + program plan
Film

Pre-production, end to end.

Scripts, shot lists, storyboards, schedules, breakdowns, and call sheets — all linked, all AI-assisted. A modern alternative to StudioBinder, built for how film crews actually work.

  • StoryForge
    All-in-one pre-pro suite

Built for show day, not for the enterprise.

Every tool here came out of a real problem on a real show. I built them because nothing else fit the workflow — the options were either too simple to trust or too complex to learn between cues.

  1. 01

    Your tools, talking to each other

    Pixel-map a wall in PixelGrid, send it to the truck pack in Pack'd, QC the panels in QCheck — without re-entering anything. One account, one org, data that flows.

  2. 02

    AI that knows production

    The assistants in these apps are tuned for load-ins, cue sheets, and runs of show — not marketing copy. They learn how your shows are built and get out of your way.

  3. 03

    Built by someone who does this for a living

    If a workflow feels odd, it's because the workaround with pen and paper also felt odd — and I'm fixing it. Direct line to me for feature requests and bugs.

  4. 04

    Premium tools without the enterprise tax

    Eight apps, one price, founding-member pricing locked in. Built for working pros and small shops who shouldn't need a separate license for every corner of a show.
