The problem

Casting is stuck in the 1990s — and it's costing billions.

The casting workflow is pre-digital in a digital-first content world. Every audition is reviewed once, then disappears. No memory. No learning. No compounding.

Lost in the pile
70%+

of submissions never get reviewed. Talents waste hours; productions miss great fits.

Backstage 2023 · Casting Networks 2022

Manual everything
80%+

of casting decisions are made manually. Filtering thousands of profiles by hand → bias + human error.

CSA Insights 2023

Time bleed
2–6 wks

per casting project, mostly in admin time. Producers and casting directors lose 50–70% of that to digital workflows.

PGA Workflow Report · Deloitte 2023

Casting is not just inefficient — it is non-cumulative. Every audition disappears after a single decision.

Think in dual mode

Two complementary control panels.
One real-time arena.

Our moat

We don't sell software.
We build a non-reproducible dataset of human performance.

Every audition on Let it Cast is structured the same way: same scenes, same prompts, same comparable conditions. Casting decisions — feedback, shortlists, outcomes — become labels. Over time the dataset compounds. It cannot be reconstructed retroactively.

01

Standardized human performance

Same scenes · same prompts · comparable auditions at scale.

02

Human decisions as labels

Feedback · shortlists · casting outcomes captured natively.

03

Compounding over time

A growing dataset that cannot be reconstructed retroactively.

Acclaimed by world-class directors & studios
