Grid Studio
Grid Studio is Stage Precision's technical programming GUI and low-code toolkit for building projects in the SP Grid ecosystem. Its visual node board links events, actions, logic, and dependencies; users can also work with GUI tools, visual scripting, and Python. A widget editor supports custom dashboards, using reusable widgets and built-in or custom assets, icons, images, and fonts. Stage Precision describes hundreds of supported device and protocol connections, with Python extensions available for connecting APIs or adding devices and functions. Example integrations include Dante Domain Manager, RossTalk Controller, Google Sheets, and Crestron DM NVX. Grid Studio can also be used to plan cameras and sensors in a 3D scene before hardware is mounted. The maker highlights automation, spatial tracking, virtual production, broadcast, and augmented reality workflows, alongside camera tracking, LED-stage, and greenscreen workflows. Projects can be built and tested for free, but deployment requires enough credits to clear data watermarks. Credit licenses are offered for three months, one year, or perpetually; perpetual credits include one year of updates and support. A credits license can be assigned to only one instance.
