Problem
Why manual request handling hurts engagement
When requests come from chat, DMs, or staff, the broadcast quickly becomes chaotic and hard to control.
Extra workload for staff
Staff have to manually collect and review requests.
Hard to keep format
Random requests can break the vibe of your venue, radio, or stream.
Audience stays passive
People listen, but do not feel involved in the broadcast.
Unclear rules
Without a clear mode, it is hard to explain what can be requested.
No interaction on your website
Visitors cannot request music directly on your page.

Requests in a controlled on-air flow
Enable requests only when needed and choose request mode: open catalog or only genres from the current on-air playlist.
