Cuelora Pro is a theater captioning system for venues that need accessible performances without a hardware budget or a technical team. It runs on one Windows or Mac laptop on the venue's own Wi-Fi, so no internet connection is needed during a show and caption data stays on the venue network. Patrons scan a QR code and read along in their phone's browser; there is no app to install and no loaner device to charge, hand out or collect. Each patron picks a text size and, on the Pro plan, a language.
One operator runs three caption modes from the same show file: closed captions on patrons' phones and tablets, open captions on any screen with a browser, and scrolling LED surtitles over HDMI or serial/USB. Import a script from PDF or Word and Cuelora Pro builds the cue list; Script Follow can advance captions as the actors speak. Program Audio lets patrons listen to the printed program with their own headphones, and Audio Description can be recorded against script cues or narrated live. Between shows, Rehearsal Mode reads the other roles aloud and prompts an actor who drops a line. Local reports and CSV exports cover caption, program and description usage by show, season and fiscal year for grants and the board.
Cuelora Core ($895) delivers PowerPoint caption slides to patrons' phones and a shared screen. Cuelora Pro ($3,500) adds script import, translation, LED surtitles, Script Follow, Program Audio, Audio Description and Rehearsal Mode. Both are one-time perpetual licenses per show computer with a year of updates and email support. A free demo license is available.
