About // Backline
For those in the Backline of events...
Backline is one login for the people who run the show; crew, production and admin tools in a single platform. We built Backline because touring, events and live production run on scattered spreadsheets, group chats and paperwork that goes stale the moment something changes. Backline keeps all your tools in one place with an active community and ever improving features. One place, one login, one version of the truth.
What we do
One platform, one login, many uses
Technical tools, admin tools, project management and more live behind a single login instead of a folder of spreadsheets and group chats.
Built for the road
Fast on bad venue Wi-Fi with our progressive web app offline feature, readable in a dark backstage corridor, and usable with one hand while you are carrying a case.

Our stance
Our AI Statement
We believe AI should assist the people who run the show, not replace them. Read how we build AI into Backline with transparency, privacy and human accountability in mind.
How it was built
Built from the road
Backline started as an online community and evolved into something more. Backline was born on 16th October 2025. Our philosophy is to build something for those in the backline of events, to make lives easier and to unite the industry.
Made by live people
Backline was built by Kamron Beheshti, a UK based lighting designer, programmer and technician. But it was not a solo effort, the community help with the beta build and encouragement is the foundation on what we stand for.
Powered by you
Our users shape what comes next. Feature requests, beta and live feedback and real show-day problem solving drive the roadmap so Backline keeps getting better for everyone on the road.
