Bespoke software for theatre & live events. Built by a small technical team.
Greyframe writes show control, cue logic, scheduling, and ops software for productions that need something the off-the-shelf stack can't do. Systems you own, changes that never surprise you, every performance on the record.
Software written for the show, not the deck.
- 01
The script, annotated in layers — lighting, sound, video, stage management — and run live across devices, offline fallback included.
- 02
Scheduling and workforce management for theatres. Productions, rehearsals, calls, timesheets — and the people behind them.
- 03
Inventory for live production. Serialized assets and bulk stock in one catalogue, a QR registry on everything, service, loans, reservations.
- 04
Version monitoring for the theatre & AV rig. Knows what every machine runs, tells the team when updates land.
- 05
Deviation reporting people actually file. Scan a QR poster, report with a PIN — handlers triage and close corrective actions.
We write what your production needs. Nothing more.
Four principles. The rest is taste.
- 01
Self-hosted by default.
It runs on your infrastructure and you hold the keys. If we vanished tomorrow, your show wouldn’t.
- 02
Changes are versioned.
The old way keeps working for a full season after any change. Nothing breaks the week of opening.
- 03
Runbooks ship with it.
Operating instructions live with the software — not in someone’s head.
- 04
Every night replayable.
Every action is logged. Tuesday’s matinee can be replayed exactly, to the millisecond.

Andreas Braa.
Greyframe started in 2017 building unique solutions to large. Most of the work has stayed close to that original brief — bespoke systems for productions that need something specific, written by someone who reads the score.
Before Greyframe, I spent years writing and maintaining systems and software at the boring, deterministic end of the industry — netowrking, telemetry, deployment infrastructure. Theatre is a system with a hard deadline of 19:30, no failover, and a live audience. The constraints sharpen the work.
Engagements run from one-week consults to season-long builds. The shop is small on purpose.
If your show needs something the stack can't do, write.
