Live detection

Special Request automatically detects the songs you play live, so your attention stays where it matters.

Self-promotion

Send automatic marketing emails to event attendees a couple of hours after an event has ended to attract new customers.

Coming soon

Kiosk Mode

Set up a dedicated device at your event for guests to request songs from, with built-in safeguards to prevent guests from leaving the event or deleting requests.

Booking page

Share your own booking page. Each booking creates a draft event and instantly emails the planner the song request link, months before the party.

For DJs and artists

The whole night, right beside your decks.

While you play, the app shows you what the room wants to hear: requests come in, votes rank them and tips stand out.

A glance between tracks is enough: accept one request, decline another and stay in control of your set.

Artist profile screen in Special Request

Your notifications, profile and wallet stay within reach, without losing the rhythm of the room.

Made for your event

Before the night, during, or both.

Some crowds plan their songs weeks ahead. Others decide on the dance floor. Special Request works either way.

Weddings

Guests pick the songs before the big day, so the DJ walks in with a playlist the whole room already loves.

  • Share one link with the invitation

School events

Proms, galas and campus parties: students shape the setlist in advance, then keep the requests coming live.

BeforeDuring

  • QR check-in at the door
