Castit digital signage
Apps & integrations

Digital signage apps that keep every screen current

Screens are only worth looking at when they show something live. Castit apps pull real content from the tools your business already runs, from Power BI dashboards to social feeds to any web page, so your screens update themselves instead of waiting on someone to redraw a slide.

What are Castit apps and integrations?

Castit apps are built-in integrations that display live content from third-party services on your screens, such as Power BI reports, Facebook and LinkedIn posts, web pages, PDFs, and weather.

You connect a source once, add the app to a screen or playlist, and the content refreshes on its own, with no manual updates and no exporting slides. Because apps live in the same library as your images, videos, and slides, dynamic content and designed content sit side by side.

Content that updates itself

Static slides go stale the moment something changes, and someone always has to notice, redesign, and republish. Apps close that gap. Connect a data source or a feed once, and the screen stays current on its own.

Send it to one screen, a group, or the whole fleet. From then on it refreshes on its own.
