Executive summary
CastRight Productions handles 300+ casting calls per year for major Bollywood productions, ad films, and web series — requiring rapid talent discovery, shortlisting, and scheduling.
TalentOS Smart Matching and automated shortlisting reduced the casting process from 2 days to under 4 hours, with 94% accuracy on talent-role matching.
The platform saves 3.2 hours per casting call by automating talent search, availability checks, and call sheet generation.
The Challenge
CastRight received 300+ casting briefs per year from production houses. Each brief required manually searching through databases, comparing physical stats, checking availability, and coordinating audition schedules — a process that took 1-2 full days per casting.
The team maintained separate databases for different talent categories (actors, models, extras, voice artists), making cross-category casting especially painful.
Availability conflicts were discovered late in the process — after shortlisting and client approval, the team would often find that 30-40% of selected talent was unavailable on the shoot dates, requiring a second round of searching.
The Solution
TalentOS B2 (Casting Pipeline) blueprint consolidated all talent categories into a single searchable database with real-time availability calendars.
Smart Matching transformed the casting workflow. When a brief was entered — specifying role requirements (age, height, look, skills, language) — the AI recommended the top 20 matching talents, pre-filtered by availability on shoot dates.
Automated call sheet generation pulled confirmed talent details, shoot location, timing, wardrobe requirements, and coordinator contact into professional documents — distributed to all parties with one click.
“Smart Matching recommends the right talent before we even finish writing the brief. It's like having an extra casting director who's seen every portfolio in our database.”

Head of Casting, CastRight Productions
The Results
Casting time dropped from 1-2 days to under 4 hours — a 4x improvement. Smart Matching eliminated the manual search-and-compare process entirely.
Match accuracy reached 94% — measured by director satisfaction with recommended talent. The AI's consideration of historical booking success and client preferences produced surprisingly accurate recommendations.
Availability conflicts dropped to near zero. By filtering for availability upfront, the team eliminated the frustrating cycle of shortlist-approve-discover-unavailable-repeat.
The time savings of 3.2 hours per casting allowed the team to take on 40% more briefs without adding headcount.
