About
AnyRequests started because a working musician was getting song requests the old way: shouted over a PA, scrawled on a beer mat, or forgotten by the time the song ended. It does one job — get requests from the room to the person playing, without anyone having to raise their voice.
How it works
A musician sets up a page and prints a QR code for the tables. People scan it, type a song, add a name if they want it dedicating, and that's it. No app, no account, nothing to install. The requests appear live on the musician's phone while they play, and the room can vote up the ones they most want to hear.
What we care about
- It has to work mid-gig. On pub wi-fi, on a phone on a mic stand, with one hand. Anything that needs concentration has failed.
- Nobody gets told no. You can request anything, whether or not the musician knows it. Nothing on the page implies otherwise.
- Names stay private. The musician sees who a request is for; the public page never does.
- The musician's page is theirs. Their name, their colours, their links, their tip button. We stay out of the way.
Where it's up to
Early access, and free while it is. It's being built with musicians actually using it on real gigs, which is the only way to find out what matters. If you're gigging and something's missing or annoying, tell us — hello@anyrequests.app.
