Jocus
Free to write, forever

Run the room,
and know what it made

This is where the night gets put together: post the show, fill the bill, build the running order, then settle the door against your costs and what every comic is owed. Your first room is free — a weekly residency counts as one.

Writing is free forever. We charge the room, not the talent. Your material, your setlists, your gigs and your first room cost nothing — no cap, no card, no expiry.

From an empty date to a settled night

  • Post one night or a weekly residency — public in the directory, or private by invite.
  • Fill the bill three ways: personal invites, an open sign-up link, or your own roster of regulars.
  • A drag-and-drop running order with roles, set lengths and stage times that do their own math — and prints.
  • Say what each spot pays once, for the whole series, and every invite quotes it automatically.
  • Know whether the night made money: the door against your costs, what every comic is owed, and your share of what's left.

Also here: produce with someone else, with co-producers who can book but not see the books and splits taken off the net; and a talent roster that remembers who you booked, alongside the pile of comics asking to get on.

What it costs

Running one room is free, for good. Producer is $19 a month, and it is what settles a night's money and lifts the room limit.

Do you write and perform as well?

Most people running a room do. The vault, the timings and the tape are the other half of Jocus, and they're free.

Start free

Booking a room is free, and so is running it. Paying starts the month you want a night's takings settled.
