“We built CueTime to make stage timing cleaner, faster and more efficient—for both the production team and the presenter.”
In this Technology Reseller News podcast, Eyal Simko, founder of CueTime, discusses how the company is modernizing stage timing and presenter communication for live events, corporate environments, education, government and AV integration.
CueTime combines a confidence monitor with an integrated stage timer, giving presenters a single line of sight for notes, timing and messages from the production team.
The system can display count-up and countdown timers along with discreet instructions such as “speak louder” or “roam the stage,” allowing offstage teams to communicate with presenters without interrupting the audience experience.
Simko says the platform was developed from more than two decades of experience in event production, where traditional timer systems can create unnecessary cabling, setup time and stage clutter.
CueTime can be deployed in as little as 26 seconds from its flight case to an operational system.
“It’s about streamlining the process for the people behind the scenes while enhancing the experience for the presenter,” Simko says.
The company offers several configurations, including its Elite, Elite LP low-profile model and standalone Pro timer. Devices support touchscreen operation, Power over Ethernet, HDMI output and over-the-air firmware updates.
CueTime can also integrate with platforms including Crestron, Q-SYS and Bitfocus Companion, opening opportunities beyond traditional event production.
Universities can use the system for classroom timing and examinations. Government organizations can deploy it for meetings and voting sessions, while enterprises can use CueTime in conference rooms, auditoriums and executive presentation spaces.
The platform can operate over wired networks, Wi-Fi or its own internal hotspot, enabling use even where internet connectivity is unavailable.
Simko says that flexibility also makes CueTime an opportunity for AV integrators, MSPs and other channel partners looking to expand into collaboration and presentation environments.
“Any space being used for meetings or presentations needs some way to stay on track,” Simko says.
