The Problem We Solve
Rigging teams waste hours wrestling with spreadsheets, manual calculations, and inconsistent documentation formats.
Scattered Data
Point coordinates live in multiple spreadsheets, CAD files, and emails. Finding the right data wastes time.
Manual Conversions
Converting between feet/meters, calculating offsets, and reformatting coordinates for different crew members.
Inconsistent Outputs
Every production creates documentation differently. Crews struggle to read unfamiliar formats quickly.
