Plan the gig, then run the night from one sheet.

The Run Sheet: the next cue in amber with the announcement to read

What it does

A Run Sheet for the booth.

On the night, one screen shows the clock, every cue in order and the next one with a countdown. The announcement to read sits in large type under it. Tap Done and the next cue moves up. A switch keeps the screen from dimming mid-set.

Running late, in one tap.

Speeches ran long? Move the next cue and every one after it by 5, 10, 15, 20 or 30 minutes. Times you marked as fixed, such as the venue curfew or a booked act, stay where they are.

The couple fills in their part.

With Pro, send one planning link. The couple opens it in a browser without an app or account, adds timings for key moments, names and how to say them, special dances, and must-play and do-not-play songs, then answers your questions. Their saved answers reach SetRunner when your phone is online. The page is in English and Spanish.

Song requests from the tables.

Put a QR code on the tables. Guests type a song and a first name and the request lands next to your timeline, where you mark it played, decline it or hide it. Turn requests off whenever you need to with one switch.

Templates you set up once.

Start from wedding, corporate and birthday templates, each with a timeline, announcements and questions. Edit and save them, then choose one when you add an event.

Deposits into your own Stripe account.

On Pro, connect your Stripe account and the planning link shows a Pay the deposit button. Deposits are processed through your connected Stripe account; SetRunner does not hold the funds. Cash and transfers are recorded by hand.

Why it works this way

Built for the night, not just the form.

A planning form is only half the job. SetRunner turns the answers into the screen you read from at the booth, so the couple’s names, songs and timings are in front of you when they matter.

Nothing for the couple to install.

The planning link and the request page are plain web pages. Couples and guests need no account. Guests enter a song and a first name, nothing more.

It keeps going through a signal drop.

Events live on SetRunner’s servers so the couple’s link and every DJ seat see the same plan. The phone keeps its own copy, so you can open the Run Sheet, tick off cues and shift times with no signal; changes sync when the connection returns. New guest requests need a connection to arrive.

What you record stays readable.

Every event stays readable on every plan and exports as JSON at any time. If a paid plan ends, you keep planning on Standard with up to three upcoming events.

Questions

Does the couple need to download anything?

No. The couple gets a link that opens in any phone or computer browser. They need no app and no account, and what they save appears in SetRunner for you.

Does SetRunner play music or connect to my DJ software?

No. SetRunner plans and runs the event: the timeline, announcements, names and song lists. You play music from your own setup. Songs are typed in by hand, so nothing depends on a streaming service.

How do deposits work?

On Pro, you connect your own Stripe account. The couple’s planning link then shows a Pay the deposit button and the money is paid into your Stripe account. SetRunner adds a 1% fee, which you can show to the couple as a service fee or absorb, and never holds the funds.

What does running late do?

It moves the next cue and every later cue by the minutes you choose. Cues you marked as fixed times, such as a venue curfew, do not move, and cues you already ticked off stay as they are.

Can a second DJ use it?

On Pro, yes. Pro has three seats including the owner. The owner makes a single-use invite code and the second DJ sees the same events and Run Sheets on their own phone.

What happens when a subscription ends?

Everything you recorded stays readable and exportable. You keep planning on Standard with up to three upcoming events, templates, the Run Sheet and the run sheet PDF.
