Cuelight is the operating system of the music business. Talent buyers, agents, artist managers and tour managers run every show on one system: booking, advancing, touring, money and tickets.

Every show you've ever been to was booked over email. Four companies put it on: the talent buyer, the agency, the artist manager and the tour manager. They work together every day. Their software doesn't, so every offer, contract, advance and settlement leaves one company by email and gets typed again at the next. Cuelight puts all four on one system. Every seat at the table, from the first offer to last call.

Every seat at the table.

Drawn from the product's own screens, with sample data. One show, Amelie Lens at Knockdown Center, seen from all four seats.

01 · Talent buyers and venues

Write the offer once. Run the whole show from it.

Offers, holds, contracts, checklists, deposits, advancing and settlement build from the offer you send, and the agent opens the same deal.

The night · Lightix

Then it sells the tickets.

The show you booked goes on sale on Lightix, Cuelight's ticketing, without anyone typing it again. Tickets land in Apple Wallet, the door scans them, the bar takes Tap to Pay, and the night's numbers become the settlement.

From the first offer to last call.

See Lightix
The market · Cuelight AI

Know the market before you make the offer.

Who is touring where, who is rising, and what you paid last time, next to the offer. Cuelight AI builds a shortlist for your room, reads the contract and the settlement PDF, and drafts the email.

It drafts. You decide.
