Killian, the Cue Killer mascot. A chibi grim reaper with a scythe

☠️ Killian takes your AV dead serious.

Meet Killian

Hi, I’m Killian.

I’m your backstage reaper. I run the lights, the sound, the screens and the camera. So you can stop operating your show and actually perform it.

Here’s the deal: you build your cue list, and I stand by. You hit GO. Or say the word, or hold up a prop. And I fire whatever’s next, dead on your beat. No laptop op. No missed cues. No mercy.

One button. Your whole show. I’ve got the rest.

Killian ☠️

Everything a cue can be

One cue list runs the show. GO fires whatever’s next. A slide, a sound, the camera, an overlay. And Killian keeps your place.

One cue list, one GO

A single ordered list of cues. GO fires the next one; BACK just re-arms. Cues can auto-chain so a tap can trigger a whole sequence.

Learn any remote

Map a 3-button remote. GO / BACK / LIVE, with single, double and hold. Flic and Bluetooth clickers supported. Hold to panic-blackout.

Real audio engine

Fades, crossfades, per-cue level trim and simultaneous tracks. With a dedicated Kill Audio button when you need silence now.

Slides & overlays

Import PDFs or images as slide cues, then add graphic and big-text overlay cues on top. Health bars, score, callouts, framed borders.

Live camera + HDMI out

Send slides, cue videos or a live camera feed to an external display over HDMI. Multiple cameras, including Continuity and USB-C capture.

Your confidence monitor

Your screen always shows what’s live, what’s armed next, and what each remote button does. So nothing is memorized and you never lose your place.

Fire it your way

Fire a cue, your way.

Your hands are full and your eyes are on the audience. So a cue can fire however the moment needs. Your voice, a prop you hold up, any remote you like, or even a phone you hand across the room.

Say the word

Assign a spoken phrase to any cue. Turn listening on and the moment you say it. Mid-sentence, on stage. The cue fires. It hears you over the show’s own music, and when phrases overlap the most specific one wins.

Hold up a prop

Show the camera a card, a prop, an object. Cue Killer recognizes it and fires its cue. It locks onto the thing in frame and waits for a steady match, with a strictness dial so it triggers on the right cue and nothing else.

Bring any remote

Prefer a button? Teach it to Cue Killer. Press it once and it learns the signal. Map GO, BACK and LIVE, and give single, double, and hold each their own cue. Works with Flic and any Bluetooth presentation remote.

Hand it to the room

Spin up a private control page on the spot. Anyone you hand the link and pairing code can fire cues from their own phone. An assistant in the wings, or a spectator about to do something impossible.

Pro show control, without the pro rig

Tools like QLab and ProPresenter are incredible. For a full crew with a Mac and a booth. Cue Killer is for the performer running it alone.
