ShowSpec
Easy to build technical briefs for non technical people. Get precise quotes and compare AV vendors with confidence.
Vague AV briefs lead to hidden costs and wild quote variations. ShowSpec turns your event plans into a precise Production Rider with zero tech jargon required.
Just follow the step-by-step flow. If you get stuck, leave it as TBC and let your vendors handle it. But the clearer you are upfront, the fewer expensive surprises you'll face later.
Quick start
You know your show. ShowSpec helps you capture it in a format production companies can quote from — no AV background needed.

Work through the 8 sections
Your details, the show overview, each room, production needs, logistics, crew welfare, then export. It saves as you go.
Not sure? Leave it as TBC
You don’t need every answer on day one. Mark what’s still to be confirmed and add context in the comments boxes.
Download your Production Rider
On the final section, export as PDF, Excel, or Word and send it to your chosen vendor.
