Gelmet apps are not side projects looking for a purpose. They come from actual workflow pain, production pressure, and everyday organizational friction. The goal is not novelty. The goal is better work.
The first Gelmet apps are both rooted in the same instinct: if venues already have useful gear, the software should help them use that gear more effectively instead of forcing them into a giant technical leap.
Spot Projector is for venues that need a spotlight effect without buying, storing, or staffing a traditional follow spot. It is designed to make setup testing, basic operation, and live use feel approachable enough for real people in real rooms.
SpotMover is about meeting venues where they are. If they already own a capable fixture, the software should help them get useful, follow-spot-style control out of it without expecting every operator to think like a lighting programmer.
These apps are not built from a blank-sheet startup fantasy. They come from real questions about budgets, staffing, room constraints, operator confidence, and gear that people already have on hand.
Gelmet is also moving toward camp, school, and team organization tools. Those projects are still taking shape, but the direction is consistent: simple interfaces, clearer systems, and tools that do not make everyday work harder than it already is.
If a tool is close to what you need but not quite there yet, Gelmet can also help through consulting, workflow design, and practical implementation support.
