Rate my friend's startup: Rundown Creator, a production tool for broadcast media

Excellent. Only negative:

Do you offer plans for less than 50 users [$35/mo]?

No, sorry, that's as low as we go.

Turn that frown upside down! $35/mo is cheap, emphasize that it could benefit a team of 5 up to 50. Right now it suggests teams of fewer people wouldn't benefit, when they definitely would.

You don't just have to do it for news. any little magazine show would benefit from this, even if they didn't use a teleprompter. Things I've worked on that this would assist - cooking shows, corporate gigs, local ad spots, doco production, magazine shows. Lots of freelance producers could benefit.

It's not my bread and butter anymore, but I've bookmarked it - if I were asked to help out on such a project, it would have paid for itself after an hour of work...which is the minimum time it would take me to build a template in Excel or similar. Software-in-a-box to do the same thing is hideously unpleasant to use and about 10x the price. I think you can get a ton of small users.

Hell, try it at $45/mo (so you can give a small 'discount' to the volume purchasers instead of linear price increases.

My good buddy Jeff, a HN reader, is too modest to submit this himself, but it's a pretty cool project for broadcast nerds. If you're familiar, it's similar to enterprise solutions like ENPS / iNews, but costs a lot less. (A LOT less. I think too much less.)

Looks like a very cool and well built product. Congrats to him. I'd be interested in knowing what sort of market their is for this software?
