For artists & organisers

    Stop running shows on email and out-of-date PDFs.

    lorider is the shared workspace where artists and organisers plan every show together — riders, contracts and advancing, always current.

    Rider Chaos Is the Default

    From artists staring down a blank page to promoters chasing the right PDF across three inboxes and a WhatsApp thread — rider management runs on chaos, and everyone just lives with it.

    01

    The Blank Page Nobody Prepares You For

    Nobody teaches you how to write a rider. What goes in it? How is it structured? So most artists copy someone else's outdated template and hope it's close enough.

    Technical Rider
    What goes here...?
    02

    Everyone's Working From a Different Version

    The venue's still on last month's PDF. The promoter missed the update buried in an email. The tech shows up with numbers nobody agreed to. Same show, different facts.

    Artist →"We need 8 monitor mixes"
    ← Venue"We only have 6 aux sends"
    Artist →"That's not what we agreed!"
    03

    PDF Ping-Pong, Forever

    rider_v2_commented_final_FINAL.pdf. Feedback buried in an email thread. A correction dropped into WhatsApp and never seen again. Nobody — artist or organiser — knows which file is real.

    The Show Changes. The Paperwork Doesn't.

    New drummer, smaller stage, an acoustic set added last week — every change means re-sending documents to everyone and hoping they open the right one.

    Hours Gone, Nothing to Show For It

    Hours lost to formatting documents, chasing "did you get this?" messages, and updating the same details in three places. Time neither side gets back — and it's rarely spent on the show itself.

    Advancing a Show Shouldn't Be Guesswork

    A show runs smoother when everyone can plan properly. Instead, promoters and techs are stuck advancing gigs on incomplete specs, guessed numbers, and whatever PDF happened to be attached last.

    Stage dimensions
    Power requirements
    Backline details — missing!
    Monitor specs — unclear!
    Catering — forgot?!

    There's a better way: one place, always current, for everyone involved.

    One shared place

    The Rider Lives in One Place, Not Three Inboxes.

    No more version roulette. The rider, the contract, the advance — one live document both sides edit, so nothing gets lost between the booking email and the loading dock.

    02How it works

    From offer to show, one flow

    Five steps, one shared workspace. Every step is a handoff between artist and organiser — LoRider keeps both sides looking at the same thing, always current.

    / 05

    The offer lands

    An organiser reaches out with a date, a fee, a stage. The artist reviews it in one place — not a forwarded email chain.

    Organiser proposes, artist reviews

    The contract, built together

    Terms and riders live in one document both sides edit and approve section by section — no more chasing a signature on a PDF.

    Both sides negotiate and approve
    / 05

    The rider takes shape

    Technical, hospitality, logistics — the artist specifies what they need, structured and searchable, not buried in a Word doc.

    Advancing, without the guesswork

    Stageplot, patch list, schedule — everything the crew needs to advance the show comes straight from the rider, not retyped from scratch.

    Crew and artist align on the details
    / 05

    Show day, no surprises

    Everyone walks in off the same day sheet and guest list, already agreeing on the details. The show happens — the paperwork stays out of the way.

    Artist and organiser, on the same page
    03

    Built for both sides of the show.

    One shared workspace — everyone sees exactly the rider, contract and stageplot sections that are theirs to edit or approve.

    01

    For artists & teams

    • Managers
    • Tour managers
    • Booking agents
    • Band members

    Managers, tour managers, booking agents and band members — build riders once, send clean contracts, run advancing without the inbox archaeology.

    • Build technical & hospitality riders once, reuse across every show
    • Negotiate and approve contracts section by section, in one place
    • Advance shows with a stageplot, patch list and schedule pulled straight from the rider
    • Review incoming offers as clean records, not a forwarded email chain
    • Plan a whole tour, not one show at a time — legs, dates and drive times in a shared calendar, not a spreadsheet
    02

    For festivals & organisers

    • Festival organisers
    • Production managers
    • Stage managers
    • Techs
    • Crew

    Coordinate stages, slots and acts; collect every act's tech and hospitality needs in one place; grant the right people the right access.

    • Plan every stage and its running order in one shared view
    • Assign slots and keep set times in sync across the whole team
    • Collect every act's technical and hospitality requirements automatically
    • Grant crew, promoters and vendors exactly the access they need — nothing more
    • Watch the whole day unfold on a live running-order Gantt — the same view you can put up on a side-of-stage screen
    04

    Real Screens, Not a Slide Deck.

    Every screen kills a piece of the chaos — from the blank page to advancing without the guesswork.

    Every gig in one grid — venue, date, status and how far the advance has come, so nothing slips between the confirmation and the load-in.

    05

    The depth behind the one page

    Collaboration, permissions, logistics, technical detail — the parts that don't show up in a screenshot, but show up on show day.

    01

    Collaboration

    Comment on the field, not just the file

    Thread discussions on a single line item — a mic count, a meal time — instead of a marked-up PDF nobody can parse.

    Share exactly what someone needs

    Send a bandmate a link to their position's patch and gear, not the whole 40-page rider.

    Room for everyone at the table

    Agents, tour managers, promoters and vendors — bring in whoever's actually part of the deal, not just the two names on the contract.

    Propose a value, don't just argue about it

    Change a single field and send it as a proposal — the other party accepts, rejects or counters, and the whole back-and-forth stays on record.

    02

    Permissions

    A role for every job on the tour

    Twelve built-in personas — booking agent, tour manager, production manager, festival organiser, stage manager and more — each with its own capabilities baked in, not a generic admin-or-member toggle.

    Access by section, not all-or-nothing

    A lighting designer opens the lighting section. Hospitality stays with whoever's actually arranging it.

    Approved means approved

    Lock a section once it's agreed, so a late-night edit can't quietly undo a signed-off decision.

    Bring in outside help without adding them to your org

    Grant someone outside your organisation access to a single show or festival — a freelance stage manager, a local promoter's crew — scoped to that event and gone when it's over.

    03

    Logistics

    Every requirement has a home

    Hospitality, security, logistics, technical specs — structured sections instead of a wall of text.

    One lineup or five, one source of truth

    Full band, trio, acoustic duo — build variants that inherit from your base rider instead of starting over each time.

    Who brings what, spelled out

    Split ownership between artist and venue clearly, and generate the vendor requirement list automatically.

    Day sheets and guest lists, generated not typed

    A day-of schedule and venue details plus a guest list with plus-ones and comps, checked against capacity automatically and exported as a PDF the crew can print.

    04

    Technical

    A head start on the blank page

    AI assistance drafts professional rider language from a few bullet points, so you're editing, not staring at a cursor.

    Built by people who patch stages

    Auto-continue routing, stereo pair linking, batch auto-routing, and a 25cm grid snap — the small stuff that saves the real time.

    Nothing gets lost in a revision

    Full version history across riders and contracts, so you can see exactly what changed, and undo it if it shouldn't have.
