StageBuilder Pro

StageBuilder Pro is a free, browser-based 3D stage plot builder designed for touring production teams, bands, and venue crews.

Unlike traditional 2D stage plot tools, StageBuilder Pro renders your entire rig in real-time 3D — orbit the stage from any angle, check sightlines from FOH or the wings, and toggle instantly to a clean 2D plan view. Every spatial conflict that's invisible in a flat diagram is obvious in 3D.

Key features:

• 100+ production items across 5 departments: audio, lighting, video, staging, and instruments — from line arrays and moving heads to drum kits and pedalboards
• AI stage plot builder — describe your rig in plain English ("2 line arrays each side, 4 subs ground stacked, FOH console 60ft out") and it places everything automatically
• Smart snapping — configurable grid snap, edge snap to truss and deck surfaces, and automatic stacking on risers and platforms
• Auto-generated I/O list — every instrument populates your input list with channel, mic type, and stand requirements
• One-click PDF export — 3D perspective view, printer-friendly 2D overhead, and full I/O list in a single document
• Real-time collaboration — invite your crew to edit the same plot simultaneously, or share a view-only link with anyone (no account needed)
• Cloud save — access your plots from any device
• No install required — runs entirely in your browser

Stage presets for concert (60x40), theater (50x35), arena (80x80), and club (24x20) stages, or enter custom dimensions. Department layer toggles let you isolate audio-only, lighting-only, or any combination for cleaner views.

StageBuilder Pro replaces the PowerPoint-and-email workflow with a purpose-built tool that understands how live production actually works. Free tier includes the full editor with local save. Pro ($5/mo) adds cloud save, unlimited plots, and collaboration.
