AI Assistance & Credits
AI help across the app — look and inventory image generation, song and schedule extraction, import assistance — paid for with prepaid credits or run on your own API key.
What it helps with
- Where AI genuinely saves a production team time, and where it does not
- Paying for AI by the generation rather than by the month
- Design references when there is no budget for a rendering
How AI Assistance & Credits works
- Premium Features: How AI Credits Work — AI generation is paid for with credits. Every account starts with a batch of free credits, and you can buy more at any time from the Billing page. Credits never expire.
- Premium Features: Using Your Own API Key (Unlimited AI) — If you generate a lot — or just prefer to be billed directly — you can add your own Google Gemini API key in Settings
- Premium Features: AI for an Organization — An organization has its own AI billing, separate from every member's. Which one pays depends on the show, not on who is working:
- Premium Features: Which Features Use Credits — These AI features are paid for with credits (or run free on your own API key):
- Premium Features: What's Available Without Credits — All core production management features work without credits — and so do the AI helpers that assist with importing your own data:
- Premium Features: Running Out of Credits — When your balance can't cover a generation, you'll see a dialog offering two ways forward.
- Premium Features: Subscribing to the CueCall Blog — The CueCall blog publishes practical writing for directors, stage managers and producers. You can have new posts emailed to you — an account is not required, and the list is separate from product…
- Premium Features: CueCall Webinars — We run occasional live webinars — walkthroughs of auditions, scheduling or the production paperwork, with time for questions. When one is scheduled, a sign-up form appears on the CueCall home page…
- Managing Inventory: AI Image Generator — Generate theatrical rendering images using AI for Costume, Prop, Set, and Projection items.
More in AI & Import
- Smart Import & Bulk Import — Existing spreadsheets, folders of files and documents read in and mapped onto shows, people and inventory, so a season already recorded elsewhere does not have to be retyped.
