Cuez Integrates AI Into A Unified Broadcast Production Workflow

Cuez announces the expansion of its cloud-based broadcast production platform with the impending introduction of Cuez Admin, plus additions to the capabilities of the established Storydesk, Rundown and Automator.

Scheduled for introduction on Cuez booth 6.A23 at IBC 2026, RAI Amsterdam, 11-14 September, these advances address the fragmentation broadcasters face when targeting viewers via multiple delivery formats.

The enhanced Cuez platform connects newsroom operations, station group infrastructure, and studio automation, into a unified workflow. This centralisation eliminates manual handoffs while remaining open to industry standards and broadcasting hardware. Cuez now integrates with any AI model through the MCP open standard. Newsrooms can apply AI to workflows including news ingest, story creation, fact-checking, metadata management, searching related stories through embeddings, and report generation.

Cuez Admin
Cuez Admin provides centralised management for media companies operating multiple stations and subsidiaries. The software enables easy secure sharing between newsdesks and transmission networks. Individual stations can configure their own branding, naming conventions, publish points, and user permissions.

Cuez Storydesk
Storydesk is a cloud-based story-centric newsroom system which aggregates news from multiple sources such as news wires, email inboxes, and RSS feeds, delivering stories directly to the platform where journalists work.

Cuez Rundown
Cuez was early in bringing collaborative rundowns to the broadcast industry. Rundown now takes cloud collaboration all the way into the story itself. The script becomes a single document where concurrent users see each other's cursors and edits in real time, within the same item. The update also introduces slash commands that let producers insert story blocks, assign presenters, or add inline instructions, without using menus; a mouse-free environment.

Cuez Automator
Cuez Automator transforms the rundown into timed studio automation, controlling equipment during live broadcast without manual intervention. Automator was recently expanded with new integrations for products including MXMZ, EVS VIA-MAP, Grass Valley K Frame, VizRT graphics, BlackMagic Design Fairlight, Audinate Dante Controller, Canon PTZ cameras, Vinten VRC, Tascam audio recorders, Chyron graphics, Harmonic Spectrum X servers, Allen & Heath mixing consoles, and Sony XVS switchers.

Fully integrated production workflow
Together, these releases provide an integrated answer for broadcast operations handling multiple distribution channels and audience segments. Newsmakers can work from a single application connecting news sources, asset creation, distribution points, and AI-assisted workflows. Stories created in Storydesk can be published directly to a broadcaster's rundown, where studio automation handles production operations.
