Built to scale.
Safe by design.
The software behind Showhub is cheap to run, almost impossible to take down mid-show, and careful with guests' data — the three things that win contracts and keep them.

Why the tech is an asset

More than just
plumbing.

💷

Cheap to run

It sleeps when no one's using it, so going from one venue to a thousand barely moves the bill.

🛡️

Always on

Every venue keeps the show running even if the internet drops — the fastest way to lose a client, engineered out.

🔒

Safe with data

Performance reports are fully anonymous, and guests stay anonymous unless they opt in — insight without the liability.

🧩

Hard to copy

It's the combination of all three, proven and live, that a rival can't quickly catch.

How it runs

We don't own a single server.

Showhub runs on Cloudflare's global network — the same backbone behind a huge slice of the internet. There's nothing for us, or our customers, to buy, patch, or babysit.
🌍

Scales worldwide

From one park to a whole estate with no new hardware to ship or install.

😴

Costs near-zero idle

We only pay when something's actually happening — not for machines sitting around.

🔄

Always current

Capacity and security are handled by the network itself, not by a team of ours.

Under the hood, for the technically curious: Cloudflare Workers, D1, R2, Durable Objects & Workers AI.
Reliability

The show goes on,
even when the
internet doesn't.

Each venue runs on its own box on-site — it doesn't need the internet to put on the show.
The cloud is only for syncing, licensing and support. Lose it and the night carries on.
A frozen screen in front of a paying crowd is the one failure a client never forgets.

So reliability isn't a feature we bolted on — it's the starting assumption. That's what makes entertainment teams trust us with the room.

The economics

A thousand venues.
Almost the same bill.

~90%

asleep at any moment

Idle venues use no computing power — so cost barely grows as we add customers.

£0

servers to buy or run

Nothing to purchase, host, or replace — for us or the client.

Flat

cost as we grow

Adding the next park barely moves the running bill.

Low, flat running costs mean the margin on every new park drops almost straight to the bottom line.
Access & control

Three keys. Three doors.
No master key lying around.

📟

The venue's box

Each box proves it's genuine before it can do anything. Clone or fake one and it's locked straight out.

👤

Staff logins

Bank-grade sign-in for the entertainment team. Lose a device? Cut its access instantly — not hours later.

🔑

Head-office access

A separate, higher key for managing the whole estate — kept apart from the day-to-day.

Every action is tied to a known identity, and access can be switched off the moment something looks wrong.
The Audience Wall

Guests put photos on
the big screen — safely.

Upload links expire in minutes and can't be faked or reused.
Photos can't be swapped or tampered with on the way in.
A guest can only ever see their own photos — never anyone else's.
The crowd on the big screen is a magic moment — and a risk if it's done carelessly.

We built the wall so a bad actor can't hijack the screen or snoop on other guests. Brand-safe by default.

Insights without the liability

Full insight for you.
Privacy for your guests.

Clients get the numbers that matter — plays, wins, sign-ups, busiest nights — per venue and across the whole estate.
Those performance reports are fully anonymous — counts and trends, never names or faces.
Guests only share details if they opt in to leaderboards or prizes — a first name, and an email just for prize contact — with consent, kept minimal and stored in their own region.
Prove how well a park performs — without a database of guests' personal lives.

Anonymous by default, opt-in by choice. The insight clients want, minus the data risk nobody wants.

AI moderation

AI keeps the big screen
family-friendly.

On the box

First check

Every photo and message is screened on-site before it can appear.

In the cloud

AI second look

AI takes a second look and can flag anything the first check missed.

The result

Strict wins

If either says no, it doesn't show. The AI can only ever be stricter — never let something slip.

Brand-safe screens with far less staff babysitting — and if the AI ever hiccups, the on-site check still stands.
Where data lives

A UK park's data
stays in the UK.

Each customer's media is stored in their own region, by design.
New regions switch on as we expand into them — cruise lines included.
Big customers ask "where does our data live?"

We already have the right answer before they ask — which makes enterprise and cruise contracts far simpler to win.

How we know it works

We tried to break it
before anyone else could.

Every part was attacked on purpose, the weak spots found and fixed before launch.
Then tested for real on the live system — including all the ways it could be abused — and the test data wiped clean afterwards.

In one line
Cheap to run, almost impossible to take down, and safe with people's data — a combination rivals can't quickly copy.
That's not just good engineering. It means lower costs, easier sales, and a real moat.
