We are opening up early access to CadenceOps, a new operational system built specifically for live events, festivals, venues, and event production companies.

Apply in 30 seconds: https://cadenceops.app/early-access

Limited spots, reviewing weekly.

What CadenceOps.app does

CadenceOps is designed to replace the fragmented mix of spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, staffing tools, ticketing systems, and shared documents that most event teams and production companies currently rely on.

Instead of juggling multiple disconnected tools, CadenceOps brings everything into one operational system:

• Crew & Staffing Management – assign roles, manage availability, and coordinate onsite teams in real time
• Event Run Coordination – centralise run sheets, schedules, and live operational updates
• Site & Production Planning – map venues, zones, and production layouts to align teams and logistics
• Task & Workflow Management – assign and track production tasks with clear accountability
• Live Operational Communication – keep comms tied directly to the event, not lost across chat apps

How it works

You build your event inside CadenceOps, structure the production plan (crew, zones, schedule, tasks), and then run it as a live operational control system across build, show day, and pack-down.

Everything is connected to the event itself, so when something changes on site, the whole team stays aligned in real time.

We’re looking for beta testers from:

• Event production companies
• Festival and live event teams
• Venues and operations managers
• Agencies running complex multi-crew events
• Anyone responsible for coordinating live event delivery

What you get:

• Early access to the platform
• Direct influence on product development
• Priority onboarding support
• Free access during beta

If you’re interested, comment below or message me directly and I’ll get you set up.
