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.

Transcript

This video explores CueCall's powerful AI assistance and how it helps you bring your theatrical vision to life. You upload your script, and CueCall's AI analyzes it to suggest a scene breakdown for your review. This saves you time by creating all your scenes with a single click.

The AI can also generate inventory items like props. From just the show title, it suggests a list of props needed for your production. You can review the suggestions and add them directly to your props list.

For visual elements, CueCall's AI can generate projection images. The AI Prompt button helps you describe the scene's backdrop, and the AI then creates the image. This is how AI assistance enhances your production workflow in CueCall.
