One Live Event Record. Six Connected Stages.

The event happens once. Its meaning and usefulness should not vanish at curtain call. Plan, capture, understand, create, approve, and deliver or archive the work around a live event or recorded occurrence. Five products share one verified event record while people retain judgment, authorship, and approval.

Six Connected StagesFive ProductsHuman Approval RequiredOne Live Event Record

01 Five Products, One Record

Professional Capability Should Not Depend On Enterprise Scale.

Local theaters, musicians, youth orchestras, educators, independent producers, small organizations, and public interest and indigent defense legal teams deserve disciplined live-event capture, media, marketing, evidence, and documentation workflows. The platform expands what people can do while keeping human judgment, authorship, and approval in control. One evening on stage can become tomorrow’s audience, archive, lesson, or lasting record.

02 The Six-Stage Flow

Plan → Capture → Understand → Create → Approve → Deliver & Archive

A performance, podcast, open house, recorded incident, hearing, or family interview happens once. The IMC Machine keeps its source media, people, facts, decisions, approvals, and resulting work connected.

Stage 01

Plan

Build the record

Confirm the people, place, schedule, source files, responsibilities, permissions, and requirements for the event or recorded occurrence.

Stage 02

Capture

Record what happened

Use supported video, audio, photographic, spatial-media, caption, and livestream workflows while preserving the source record.

Stage 03

Understand

Make the record reviewable

AI assists with transcription, visual description, indexing, comparison, research, and gap finding. Source material remains distinguishable from derived analysis.

Stage 04

Create

Produce useful work

Turn the verified record into media, marketing, operational documents, evidence reports, motion support drafts, or a cited family dossier.

Stage 05

Approve

Keep people in control

Named people review, edit, decide, and approve. Attorneys control every legal conclusion and filing. Nothing external is released without authorized approval.

Stage 06

Deliver & Archive

Release only approved work

Publish, export, file, share, or preserve approved output while keeping the source record, status, and decision trail together.

AI can assist with intake, organization, analysis, comparison, and drafting. It does not replace the producer, educator, researcher, investigator, or attorney responsible for the work. Human judgment, authorship, and approval remain in control.

Capabilities are labeled Live, Partial/Beta, Implemented: Verification Required, or Planned. Those labels distinguish demonstrated product from roadmap and should be reviewed on the relevant product or feature page.

03 The AI Reads The MP4

The Headline Capability,In Plain Language.

Most legal software treats a video file as an opaque object. You open it, you watch it, you write a paragraph about it, you move on. The IMC Machine treats the MP4 as readable. Google’s Gemini transcribes the audio, captions the visual content, and indexes the file by what is actually in it. Body cameras, dash cameras, interview audio, CCTV from a private investigator, surveillance from a family-law matter. Silent files get descriptive captions (“[engine idling, no audible speech, two figures cross the frame at 00:01:43]”). Every clip becomes part of the matter record the same way a deposition transcript does.[1]

Model-assisted review can compare a draft against the source record and surface disagreements as questions. The attorney remains responsible for the law, the citations, the decision to file, and the final document.

This is the platform’s specialty: making the live or recorded event itself reviewable, then keeping the approved media, marketing, evidence, or documentation connected to that source. Current capability varies by workflow, so the status labels on the relevant product and feature pages remain the authoritative guide.

04 A Day, Two People

Two Short Stories About What This Looks Like When You Use It.

Scenario

Wednesday, 9:14 AM. A Defense Attorney.

You are reviewing the matter that came in last night. A DWI arrest in Bexar County. The state already produced ninety-eight minutes of body-camera footage from two officers. You open the matter folder. The platform has already transcribed both videos, captioned the silent stretches, and indexed every spoken sentence with a timestamp.

You filter the transcript by “Miranda” and three returns surface, one of them three minutes after the captured incident began. You read the surrounding thirty seconds in plain text. You flag it. You open The Issue Spotter, pick the Article 39.14 (the Texas rule requiring the State to hand over its evidence to the defense) discovery demand template, and the canonical caption populates from the matter record. Three-AI consensus reviews the draft. You sign. The motion is filed before 10 AM.

Scenario

Thursday, 2:30 PM. A Venue Producer.

You are advancing a Friday show. The artist’s tour manager just emailed a revised rider with a new monitor setup. You open the event record. You drop the rider in the artist profile. The platform updates worksheet 1.4 (Crew Roster) to reflect the new monitor engineer call. Worksheet 1.6 (Marketing) flags that the door-time language in the social post draft is now out of sync with the schedule change.

You ask Buddy: “What still needs the marketing team’s attention before doors?” Buddy reads the campaign tracker and gives you three: the radio promo announcement, the Instagram countdown, and the press list confirm. You handle two. The third you hand to the publicist. By Friday at 8 PM the run of show is locked.

05 The Vocabulary

Words That Mean Something Specific In This Room.

Canonical Record
The single source-of-truth record for a piece of work. Event record for a show. Matter folder for a case. Everything downstream reads from it.
Matter Folder
The Drive folder where a legal matter lives. Client Files / Client / Matter / Evidence is the canonical path.
Six Worksheets
The numbered pre-production deliverables, 1.1 through 1.6: Schedule, Venue Survey, Meetings, Crew, Permits, Marketing.
Three-AI Consensus
Court-bound documents are reviewed by OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude, and Google’s Gemini. All three must agree before the document is treated as final.
White-Hat Compliance
Texas Bar 7.01 through 7.06 adherence, plus same-day opt-out honoring and named-attorney approval on every solicitation.
Approval Gate
A required human review step before AI-generated output leaves the platform. No piece of content is published or filed on the platform’s authority alone.
Run Of Show
The timed cue document the stage manager calls from during a live event. Locked twenty-four hours before doors.
Captured Incident
The defense-side term for what the public booking record calls an arrest. Used in any text where the presumption of innocence applies.
