Laminated timeline
Perfect at 8 a.m. Wrong by 2 p.m. The card on their Lock Screen moves when the day moves.
Cue Mode · For planners & coordinators
The timeline slips.
Your vendors keep up.
Portraits run long. The limo is late. The toasts move after dinner. You change it once, and your DJ, photographer, catering captain and venue lead see the new cue and the same countdown on their Lock Screens. No laminated schedules. No frantic group texts. No one cueing the band too early.
Your vendors only need the free Startr app. No account, no setup.

The 16-hour day
You're paid to make sure the timeline never shows.
The couple should never feel a delay. That only works if every vendor finds out about a change at the same moment, and right now that depends on you texting five people while you're steaming a veil.
Vendor group text
Buried under photos and "on my way." A Cue card is silent, glanceable, and always the current step.
Walking over to tell them
The DJ is across the ballroom and the caterer is in the kitchen. One update reaches all of them at once.
How it works
Set it up the night before. Run it with one word.
1
Paste the timeline
Give your connected agent (Claude, Grok or another) the day's timeline and what each vendor needs at each moment.
2
Invite your five key vendors
Send the Cue invite from Startr. Vendors open it in the app and they're following. Read-only, and it expires on its own.
3
Say “next”
Your agent advances the cue. Every vendor's Lock Screen changes together, with the countdown to what's next.

Showtime, 3:45 to close
From “places” to the send-off, everyone's on the same page.
Illustrative cards. Each time the coordinator says “next,” every vendor's Lock Screen changes at once.

Picture this
The DJ is crushing it. Give him fifteen more minutes.
The dance floor is packed and nobody wants to stop for cake. With a paper timeline, that's five conversations across a loud ballroom. With Cue Mode, it's one message, and the rest of the night moves with it.

Your agent holds the full timeline, so it re-times everything after the change and can warn you before anything runs into the venue's 12:00 close. Every vendor sees the new next cue and countdown at the same moment. Illustrative scenario.
Built for a 16-hour day
Two cards cover the whole day.
A Live Activity lasts up to eight hours, and a wedding day splits almost exactly in half. Each card ends by telling everyone what comes next, so nothing falls through the gap.
Getting ready
Hair and makeup, florals, first look, family portraits. Built for the vendors on site early.

Prompt · works with a connected Startr agent
Here's the wedding timeline: [paste it]. Start a Startr Cue card called “Showtime” for the ceremony through the send-off. Headline is the current moment; status says what the DJ, photographer, catering and venue need to do; include a countdown to the next moment. When I say next, advance one cue. +10 pushes the countdown ten minutes. move toasts after dinner reorders the timeline. Keep every line short enough to read in a glance, and never put the couple's private details on the card.
For the planner who sweats the details
What your vendors get, and what it doesn't do.
Five key vendors per card.
DJ, photographer, videographer, catering captain, venue lead. They need the free Startr app and your invite. Nothing to sign up for.
Only you move the timeline.
Vendors are read-only, so nobody works from an old version. You make the change, and everyone sees it at once.
A glance, not a buzz.
No phone ringing during the vows. The card sits quietly on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island until someone looks.
Nothing left behind.
Invites expire on their own. Startr stores who's following, not your timeline text. Nothing public, nothing for guests to stumble on.
Startr shows the cue. You and your agent run the day.
Cue Mode doesn't advance on its own: each change is sent by your agent when you say so. Each card lasts up to eight hours, so a full day is two cards, with the invite re-shared for the second. A vendor who joins late sees the next update. Rehearse it once the night before. It's a display, not a replacement for your radios or a safety system.
Questions
Before your next wedding
Do my vendors need an AI agent?
No. Only the coordinator connects an agent. Vendors install Startr and open your invite.
What if a vendor has an Android phone?
Startr is iPhone-only today. Keep that vendor on your usual text or radio.
Can the couple or guests follow along?
Not yet. Today's Cue sharing is built for a small working crew. A guest-facing version is on our roadmap.
What do I need as the coordinator?
Startr on your iPhone and a connected agent such as Claude or Grok. Setup takes a few minutes, once.
Can I try it before a real wedding?
Yes, and you should. Run a rehearsal dinner or a styled shoot with it first. Email us about a planner pilot.
For planners in Scottsdale & Phoenix
One timeline.
Every vendor on it.
We're setting up a few planners to pilot Cue Mode at their next weddings. We'll help you set it up.
