What's new in GigBook

Release notes for GigBook — new features, improvements, and fixes, updated with every release.

July 1, 2026

  • Planning form, polished — from real DJ feedback: every song pick now has separate Song and Artist fields (no more guessing which version), the Grand Entrance uses simple Yes/No toggles, Toasts get their own section, and Latin joined the music genres.
  • Payments hub — the payments tab now shows the quoted total, amount paid, and remaining balance at a glance, right above your full payment history. Deposit and balance roll up into one "Make a payment" step for couples.
  • Connect your other tools — send GigBook events (new inquiry, signed contract, payment, completed planning form) to Make.com, n8n, or Zapier. Each request carries a secret token your receiver checks, so Monday and the rest of your stack stay in sync automatically — no double entry. Set it up in Settings → Webhooks & integrations.
  • Help & docs — launched the public help site at support.djgigbook.com, with step-by-step guides for bookings, contracts, payments, planning, and the API.
  • Booking form fix — fixed an error some couples hit when submitting the public booking request form.
  • Release notes — this page: see what's new each time GigBook is updated.
  • Track every booking's status — move events through a clear pipeline (New inquiry → Booked → Completed, and more) with a status dropdown on your dashboard and each event page. New inquiries are highlighted so you never miss a lead, and the couple's checklist and planning tools now switch on only once you mark an event Booked — so unconfirmed inquiries stay clean. Click a new inquiry to preview the full form the couple submitted, edit any answer, and book it in one step — without leaving your dashboard. The whole submission also lives under a "Booking request" section on every event page, editable anytime.
  • Filter your dashboard by stage — new pills at the top of a more compact client list (Active · New · Inquiry · Booked · Completed · Archived), each with a live count, so you can jump straight to just your new leads or everything you've booked. Archived events tuck out of the way by default, and an event opens once you've marked it Booked.
