It’s finally here

The crystal ball you’ve been waiting for.

Know how your audience will respond to your production – before you spend a single day on set.

Finding a story you love is hard.

Finding one that everybody else loves is even harder. And really expensive. Because how can you be sure before you…produce it?

Of course, you’ve found ways to minimize your cost. If you’re making a series, you try out a pilot first and show that to a few people. Only if they love that do you fully invest.

But by that point, you’ve already spent a ton! What if it still falls flat?! That could be up to a few million down the drain…

Isn’t there a way to know earlier which stories will work?

So…it’s a podcast?

If a highly-produced audio drama with actors, music and sound effects is a podcast, then sure!

Making podcasts to prove concepts on the cheap isn’t a new idea. Companies like QCODE have mastered the art of distributing their stories as podcasts first – before selling them to streaming services. Their track record is impressive.

But of course, not everyone has established audio distribution channels like them or even wants to get into the podcast business. You have shows and movies to make! You don’t want to run a whole other company.

That’s where we come in. You come to us with your screenplay, and we turn it into a unique audio experience that can be tested on audiences at a much lower risk that traditional pilots.
