FAQ
Common questions.
What is ArtistRider?
ArtistRider is a Startion workflow app for creating professional stage plots and technical riders. It replaces messy PDFs and Word docs with a clean visual editor, shareable rider links and one-click PDF export.
Can I export PDFs?
Yes — every rider exports to a print-ready PDF in A4 or Letter, with the stage plot, channel list and hospitality details venues expect.
Can I share riders publicly?
Yes. Every rider has a shareable link that venues and crews can open without an account. Updates appear instantly.
Is it mobile friendly?
Yes. Riders open cleanly on any phone or tablet — built for backstage, the dressing room and the FOH desk.
Can I reuse templates?
Yes. Save any stage plot or rider as a template and duplicate it for future shows. Perfect for touring.
Is ArtistRider free?
Yes — the Free plan covers your first rider, PDF export and a shareable link, forever. Pro unlocks unlimited riders and the full editor.
What is the difference between ArtistRider and StageRider?
ArtistRider is the artist-side workflow — you build and share your rider. StageRider is the venue-side workflow — venues use it to receive, manage and prepare for incoming riders. They're designed to work together.
Do venues need an account?
No. Venues can open shared rider links and download PDFs without signing up. Accounts are only required to edit.

Inside the Startion ecosystem
What artists create here gets coordinated in StageRider.
ArtistRider is the creation surface. Riders, plots and hospitality flow into StageRider, where venues and production coordinate approvals — and from there into the Eventiner schedule.
ArtistRider → StageRiderRider and hospitality details become coordinated requests, not email attachments.
StageRider → EventinerApproved stage timings and crew needs anchor the production schedule.
An artist rider isn't paperwork — it's the operational ground truth for the entire show. Treating it like a living document changes how the rest of the production day behaves.
