Jokesmith: Stand-up Comedy

Jokesmith is the performance analytics platform built for stand-up comedians who want to sharpen their material after every set.

WRITE, ORGANIZE, AND BUILD SETS

Keep your material in one searchable joke library. Add tags, estimate timing, save revision notes, and track every version of a bit. Then build set lists with drag-and-drop ordering while your total run time updates automatically.

RECORD EVERY PERFORMANCE

When you take the stage, Jokesmith can record your set, transcribe your performance, and detect audience laughter in real time. Its audio engine distinguishes reactions ranging from light chuckles to roaring laughs, helping you understand what connected—and what did not.

Because each reaction is matched to your transcript, you can review exactly what you said when the audience responded.

TURN REACTIONS INTO ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS

After the show, explore detailed performance analytics:

• See where energy peaked with performance heatmaps  
• Spot slow sections and stretches of dead air  
• Measure laughs per minute  
• Review joke-by-joke results  
• Follow audience intensity across your set  
• Compare performances side by side to see whether a rewrite improved the bit  

Instead of guessing, you can rewrite with evidence.

GET FRESH IDEAS WITH PUNCH-UP NOTES

Open any joke for an optional, AI-assisted punch-up. Punch-Up Notes provides a quick room read, highlights what is already working, and suggests a few new directions to explore.

It is designed to support your writing process—not replace your perspective or voice.

BUILD THE RIGHT SET FOR THE ROOM

StageIntel uses your performance history to predict how your jokes may land across different venue types. Whether you are performing at a comedy club, bar, open mic, or corporate event, confidence scores help you choose material that fits the room.

KEEP YOUR MATERIAL WITH YOU

Sync your library across devices with iCloud. Write on your iPad at home, then pull up your set list on your iPhone backstage.

You can also export performance transcripts as polished PDF reports with color-coded laugh overlays.

DISCOVER COMEDY VENUES

Explore a built-in directory of more than 100 comedy venues across the United States. Find useful details such as venue capacity, booking contacts, open-mic schedules, and recording policies.
