Why DJs switch

Double-booking a Saturday is the kind of mistake you only make once. Semuko keeps every DJ, speaker rig and uplight kit on one calendar, sells packages with add-ons, and collects the music plan before the planning meeting.

Multi-op calendar

Who’s free? Know before you price it.

Every DJ, PA rig and uplight kit on one calendar. Pick a Saturday and see who and what is still open before you send a price.

Replaces your stack

One plan instead of an example DJ company stack.

These are tools a DJ company often pays for separately. Your own stack will differ, and some of these tools do things Semuko does not. Each row says where keeping the dedicated tool makes sense.

  • CRM and lead pipeline

    Pipedrive Lite

    $14/mo per seat, billed yearly

    $14/mo

    In Semuko: Clients and leads

    When to keep Pipedrive

    A sales CRM is built around reps and deal stages. If you run an outbound sales team, it can go further than a studio CRM.

  • Scheduling links

    Calendly Standard

    $10/mo per seat, lowest listed price

    $10/mo

    In Semuko: Booking and scheduling

    When to keep Calendly

    Calendly has a free plan. If one booking link is all you need, the free plan may be enough.

  • E-signatures

    Dropbox Sign Essentials

    $10.05/mo billed yearly ($15 billed monthly)

    $10.05/mo

    In Semuko: Contracts and proposals

    When to keep Dropbox Sign

    If you sign a lot of documents that are not about a client (leases, vendor or HR paperwork), a general e-sign tool covers those.

  • Invoicing

    FreshBooks LitePartly replaced

    $23/mo regular monthly price, 5 billable clients

    $23/mo

    In Semuko: Invoices and payment plans

    When to keep FreshBooks

    Semuko invoices and collects payments. It is not accounting software, so most studios still keep bookkeeping for expenses and taxes.

  • Forms and questionnaires

    Typeform Basic

    $25/mo lowest listed price, billed yearly

    $25/mo

    In Semuko: Questionnaires

    When to keep Typeform

    Typeform is a design-first builder for public surveys and quizzes. Semuko questionnaires live on the client and the event.

  • Email automation

    Flodesk LitePartly replaced

    $19/mo billed yearly, 1 workflow, up to 1,000 subscribers

    $19/mo

    In Semuko: Workflows and client email

    When to keep Flodesk

    Semuko sends client email and workflow sequences. It is not a newsletter platform for a large marketing list. Keep one for that, or connect Omnisend.

  • Crew scheduling

    When I Work Essentials

    $2.50/mo per user, priced here for 4 staff

    $10/mo for 4 users

    In Semuko: Staff scheduling

    When to keep When I Work

    Shift scheduling for a large hourly crew outside of events is a different job. Semuko schedules staff against bookings.

  • Gear and inventory

    Sortly Advanced

    $24/mo first-year rate, billed yearly

    $24/mo

    In Semuko: Equipment and kits

    When to keep Sortly

    If you run a warehouse of rental stock with hundreds of items, a dedicated inventory app goes deeper than Semuko equipment kits.

Example stack, lowest listed pricesabout $135/mo

Semuko Studio Pro

$79.99/mo

or $71.99/mo billed yearly (10% off)

Up to 5 users and 5 brands, workflow automation included. Essentials ($39.95/mo) has no workflow automation; Agency Unlimited ($149.99/mo) has no team cap.

Card processing is your processor’s fee (Stripe, Square, PayPal and others), on top of any plan.

Pricing checked October 2026. Each price is the lowest one listed on that vendor’s public pricing page, at one seat unless noted, often with yearly billing. Prices change, so check before you decide. This is an example stack, not a promise of savings for every studio.

Made for gigs, not sales funnels
“Generic CRMs think in deals and pipelines. DJs think in dates, rigs and run-of-show.”
Tim, Semuko’s founder. He ran a wedding photography business and worked a lot of receptions beside DJs, so that is how this page and the starter setup are built.
Run booths too?

DJs book performers, sound and lighting and plan music. Photo booth operators book units, backdrops and attendants. Multi-op companies run both in one account.
