For artists with 5k+ monthly listeners

Your next 100 superfans are already listening.

Heatlist finds the people playing your songs on repeat — and gives you a five-minute way to reach each one, personally. Tickets, vinyl, Patreon: it starts with knowing who they are.

The problem

Discovery isn't your problem. Disappearing is.

Playlists and the algorithm already put your music in front of strangers. Then almost all of them evaporate — no name, no city, no second touchpoint. Your most devoted listeners are buried in an aggregate dashboard you can't act on.

How it works

Drop. Heat. Play.

01 · Drop

Turn streams into names

Share an exclusive — a demo, early tickets, an acoustic cut — through a Heatlist link. Fans trade an email or number for it in under ten seconds.

02 · Heat

See who's burning hottest

Every fan gets a heat score from what they stream, open, buy, and attend. Your dashboard is a ranked list of people, not a chart of totals.

03 · Play

Reach them in five minutes

Record a voice memo, shoot a quick video, or write a note. Pick your segment — the hottest 25, or everyone in Denver — and send. Replies land in your inbox. Every listen, watch, and click is tracked.

Everything on this page is live today.

Founding artists aren't beta testers for promises — the machine already runs.

  • Drop links with QR codes. Built for the merch table as much as the bio link — fans trade an email for the exclusive in under ten seconds. Plus a heatlist.fm/you hub page with your drops, shows, and tips in one place.
  • Voice & video memo plays. Record once — every fan gets it in an email that greets them by name, and replies land straight in your inbox. Every listen and watch tracked. Schedule them too: pre-record the whole tour and each thank-you fires the morning after its show, to exactly the fans who scanned in.
  • Ticket stubs fans keep forever. Every check-in earns the fan a stub in their show diary — your artwork, the setlist you played (revealed the morning after), video highlights from the night, and a door back to your latest. Paper stubs died with paper tickets; you're the band that gives them back.
  • Sell exclusives. Paid drops and a pay-what-you-want tip jar flow to your own Stripe. We take 5% only when you earn — no sale, no fee.
  • Shows that work for you. Add your dates and Heatlist matches them against where your fans live — “you play Phoenix Friday, 14 fans are there” — and a check-in QR at the door turns showing up into heat.
  • Tour tools, not spreadsheets. Send any venue one link and they fill in the advance — no account, no email chain. Day sheets build themselves, and settlement is done before the bar closes.
  • Your list is yours. Import from anywhere, export anytime, unsubscribes handled automatically. Leave whenever you want — that's the point.
On the road

Built for the van, not just the feed.

Advancing a show is a structured form pretending to be an email thread — so we made it a link. The venue fills in load-in, PA, parking, and payment with no account and no app; your day sheet builds itself on every phone in the band; settlement is three numbers instead of a napkin. And every advance filed teaches Heatlist the room, so the next band's starts half-finished. No other fan platform touches this side of the job.

Founding 25

We're hand-picking 25 artists to build this with.

Not a waitlist — a working partnership. You get the product free forever; we get the feedback that makes it great.
