The Future of Entertainment Deal Flow Management

Welcome to BackerStage – The Future of Entertainment Deal Flow Management

BackerStage is the affordable, all-in-one platform for entertainment producers to manage projects, track investments, and close deals faster. Whether you're producing a Broadway show, indie film, or live-streamed concert series, BackerStage brings clarity and control to every step of your production pipeline.

Tired of messy spreadsheets, endless email threads, and disorganized investor tracking?
BackerStage is your centralized hub for deal flow, document watermarking, and production oversight.

🎭 Trusted by entertainment producers, built by insiders, and optimized for the unique pace and complexities of the creative industry.

Built for Entertainment Producers, by Entertainment Producers

BackerStage was born out of a real need: Managing investors, documents, and production timelines is hard when you're juggling scripts, budgets, venues, and financiers. Generic CRMs and investor tools just don’t cut it.

We built BackerStage to answer questions like:

  • Who’s committed funds to my project—and how much have they committed?
  • Have I sent all the necessary investor documents?
  • Which investors are still reviewing their documents?
  • How can I easily watermark subscription documentss with each investor’s name?
  • What are the project terms?
  • Who are the co-producers working with me, and which investors are with each co-producer?
  • Where are we in the fundraising pipeline?

If these questions sound familiar, you’re in the right place.
