The features that set it apart

Beyond a shared rundown: a live timing engine, screens for every wall and breakout tracks nothing else has.

One price. Your whole crew. No seats to count.

Everyone else charges per seat, then makes you do the maths before every show. We don’t. Pro is a single flat $100/month per team with unlimited editors and every feature included — no per-seat invoices, no add-ons, no four-figure annual lock-in. Start free, and viewers are always free.

The per-seat trap

Per-seat tools grow with your crew. We stay flat.

Questions

Do my collaborators need an account?

Only editors who sign in do. Viewers can use a read-only PIN or public link with no account — and guests can even edit via a public link without signing up.

Is there a free plan?

Yes — Free covers small shows with up to 3 rundowns and unlimited viewers. You can also try Pro free for 7 days, once per account.

How does pricing work?

Simple: Free, or Pro at one flat $100/month per team — unlimited editors, every feature included. No per-seat maths, no add-ons. Want to try it first? Every account gets a free 7-day Pro trial.

Who handles payments and tax?

Lemon Squeezy is our Merchant of Record — they collect and remit VAT/sales tax globally, and card data never touches StandbyCue.

Is there a teleprompter?

Yes — designate any column as the script, and a full-screen prompter shows it big and scrolling, following the live cue automatically. It has adjustable speed, mirror mode, and a no-login link you can hand a guest presenter (they see only the script, not the rest of your rundown).

What about my data?

You can export everything you hold and request deletion at any time. See our Privacy Policy and Sub-processors list.
