“I use this to get sides for auditions for clients. They’d upload them and I used to be able to click and see them. After an update I have to click, copy the link, open safari, download the sides, open the downloads folder, then I can open them and print. I’m not sure what changed but it’s really really inefficient all of a sudden.”

Why this is a gap
Surfaced from a high-intensity complaint with clear willingness to pay and a specific, reachable audience.
The market
Casting directors and talent managers need to view, organize, and print audition sides (script pages) without friction. No search volume, but the pain is specific and recent (an app update broke a workflow that was working).
Competition & the opening
General cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox), casting software (Breakdown Services, IMDb Pro), and PDF readers already exist. The gap is a tool optimized specifically for fast retrieval, annotation, and printing of audition materials in bulk across multiple clients.
What's hard to build
Feasibility unknown in signals, but the core challenge is likely building fast search and filtering across large PDF libraries, handling metadata tagging per client/role, and integrating with printer APIs reliably across user devices.
Why now
Recent app updates broke one-click file access; casting workflows demand instant offline-ready document viewing without friction.
