My startup - DJfindr. A DJ marketplace and business suite.
I just deployed a personal project of mine that I’ve been slowly working towards for the past 2-3 years (before judging the years, this was while in undergrad, between internships, my own consulting company, and living life).
DJfindr is a DJ marketplace with discovery, messages, booking flow, payments, document signing, testimonials and more.
For event hosts, it provides a way to find DJs based on simple filters that unified create detailed results. They can find DJs, message them, request a proposal, and if accepted then follow through til submitting a review.
For DJs, it’s an entire business suite. Firstly, it’s a place to get exposure and have a professional presence (an alternative to Instagram, Linktree, and ugly Wix or GoDaddy websites). Next, it’s a showcase to present past event pictures as posts and their creative audio work as mixes. Mainly, it provides a full suite of tools to automate and/or systemize event proposals and bookings. Calendar, terms, offers, document signing, payments, and reviews are all baked in.
I came up with this idea senior year of high school when I realized DJs primarily rely on word of mouth and Instagram pages with Google forms to get bookings. Payments are scattered across venmo and cash. Clients ask to extend an event then don’t pay up. Marketing consists of vacation photos with past events on their social profiles.
I’ve worked very very hard on the UI and making this sleek and speedy, so I would love any feedback! You may have seen my UI posts on here working towards DJfindr.

If you know any DJs, a referral to the platform would be awesome! I am trying to get DJs on starting today so I have options to present to potential event hosts. It is limited to the USA for now.
Btw…this app uses the cloudflare edge router I posted about recently, so you can see it in action behind the scenes!
** Editing to write DJfindr isn’t fully mobile responsive yet, working on that now, feels nice to look at a clear kanban for now **
