Company & business model
A public, digital-native SaaS business.
The essentials for startup-program, cloud, and partner review — what the company is, how it earns, and why it's cloud- and AI-native.
POCKITLE TECHNOLOGIES INC. is an Alberta corporation incorporated on August 10, 2026. It operates the Pockitle brand from Calgary, Canada. SurtitleLive is the prepared theatre-surtitles product, and Pockitle Live is the live-captioning product.
Self-serve SaaS model
One-time Week and Month Access Passes, plus shared credits for script analysis, translation, and live captioning.
Founder-funded
Founder-led and independently operated, with no institutional venture-capital claim made on this page.
Cloud- and AI-native
Built on cloud-hosted runtime delivery, secure browser workflows, and AI-assisted analysis and translation.
Who it serves
Built for teams that need subtitles to survive show night.
Theatre subtitles are usually prepared in one tool, translated in another, checked in spreadsheets, then run through fragile show-night workarounds. SurtitleLive brings preparation, review, deployment, audience access, operator control, and backup exports into one browser workflow.
Primary users
- Theatre companies and opera teams preparing surtitles for live audiences
- Fringe, touring, and small production teams that cannot rely on heavy venue-specific hardware
- Accessibility and front-of-house teams coordinating mobile audience subtitles
- Stage managers and subtitle operators who need browser-based cue control and fallback exports
