Everything you need to run a great night
No paper slips. No spreadsheets. No shouting over the music.
Live Queue Management
Drag, drop, promote, or skip — the host controls every entry in real time. Set the current act, complete it with one tap, and the rotation updates automatically.
Instant QR Join
Performers scan a QR code or tap a link to join — no app download, no account required. Pick a display name and you're in the queue in seconds.
Catalog Search
Performers search by title or artist before submitting. Results pull from a live catalog so the request form fills itself — no more misspelled entries.
Smart Rotation
k5e's rotation algorithm ensures everyone gets a fair turn. Multiple requests per performer are spread out automatically — no manual juggling required.
Display Mode
Open a second browser window on any screen or projector. It shows who's currently performing, who's up next, and a QR code for latecomers — branded with your event's colors.
Custom Branding
Add your logo, a background image, and your color scheme. Every screen performers see — from the join page to the queue — reflects your venue's identity.
