Frequently asked questions
What ShowOps.AI is, and how it works
The short answers to what teams ask before they start: what the platform does, who it is for, how the AI is kept under human control, and how your data is handled.
What is ShowOps.AI?
ShowOps.AI is an operating system for live show operations. It brings 13 connected modules — production scheduling, crew, budget, logistics, and more — into one platform, with a per-module AI assistant that works under human approval. It replaces the scattered spreadsheets, docs, and one-off tools that production teams juggle across a show.
Who is ShowOps.AI for?
ShowOps.AI is built for the teams behind complex live productions: executive producers, production companies, broadcast operators, and event agencies. It is designed for multi-venue, multi-vendor shows where the coordination overhead is the hard part.
What can ShowOps.AI do?
ShowOps.AI covers the full production lifecycle across 13 modules. These include production scheduling and rundowns, crew scheduling and staffing, budgeting and margin tracking, logistics, vendor management, dispatch, spaces, sales, and rehearsals — every phase connected so data flows between them instead of living in separate files.
Does ShowOps.AI replace the tools we already use?
No — ShowOps.AI enhances your workflow rather than forcing a rip-and-replace. Modules are configurable, so teams turn on what they need and keep the tools that already work for them.
Is ShowOps.AI event management software?
ShowOps.AI is event operations software for live productions — the back-of-house operations layer covering production scheduling, crew, budget, logistics, and vendors. That is distinct from front-of-house event management software, which handles registration, ticketing, and attendee marketing. ShowOps.AI complements those tools rather than replacing them: the two cover different halves of an event.
What is the best software for event operations?
The right event operations software depends on the kind of events you run. ShowOps.AI is built specifically for complex, multi-venue live and broadcast productions — the back-of-house coordination of schedules, crew, budgets, logistics, and vendors — rather than single-track conferences or attendee-facing event management. Teams running high-stakes live shows, where the coordination overhead is the hard part, are the best fit.
Does ShowOps.AI handle event production and logistics?
Yes — production planning and logistics are two of the 13 modules in ShowOps.AI. The Produce module covers production schedules, rundowns, call sheets, and conflict detection; the Logistics module covers trucks, docks, freight, and equipment across the event footprint. Both connect to crew, budget, and vendors, so a change in one updates the others.
Does ShowOps.AI train AI on our data?
No. ShowOps.AI uses per-tenant learning only, with no pooled training across customers. Vendor language models are called under strict no-training terms (Anthropic under zero-data-retention), and any patterns learned for your organization are deletable on request.
Is the AI autonomous?
No — ShowOps.AI keeps a human in the loop by default. Every consequential AI action is produced as a proposal for a person to review and approve, never an automatic change to your data.
How much does ShowOps.AI cost?
ShowOps.AI is priced at a flat rate per team, with all 13 modules and AI assistants included. See the pricing page for current plans.

No — ShowOps.AI is a separate and unaffiliated company. If you are looking for the live-production platform at showops.ai, this is it.
