From Sign-Up
to Seating Chart

One place for every step of your auditions, so nothing falls through the cracks between the sign-up sheet and the final roster.

Invite Links & Self-Scheduling

Share one link. Participants verify their email, fill out your sign-up form, and book their own time slot.

Multi-Round Judging

Score each round on weighted criteria from any device. Save your criteria as templates and reuse them.

Blind & Anonymous Judging

Hide judges' scores from each other, or show only candidate numbers in a shuffled order for truly blind auditions.

Automatic Advancing

Advance the top scorers or everyone above a cutoff, overall or within each section. Ties are flagged and you can always override.

Ensembles & Chair Placement

Seat the top players in each section into your ensembles by chair, with numbered alternates. Adjust by hand, then publish.

Recording Uploads

Collect audio, video or PDF submissions for any round, with deadlines. Judges listen and score in one place.

Custom Sign-Up Fields

Ask for exactly what you need, like instrument, voice part, grade or experience, and reuse field sets across auditions.

Results & Reminders

Publish results with optional scores and comments, email everyone or just those advancing, and send automatic slot and judging reminders.

Ready-Made Reports

Round results, judge scoresheets, seating charts, sign-in sheets and rosters, plus your own custom reports.

Organizations & Divisions

Run auditions across departments or programs, with admins, division managers, and shared fields and judges.

Secure & Private

Passwordless sign-in with email codes, and data and recordings encrypted at rest.

Open a sandbox audition with sample participants, time slots and judge scores to see everything work before you invite anyone.

Questions?
Answered.

Is the free plan really free?

Yes. The Studio plan is free with no time limit and no credit card. It includes 3 auditions with up to 10 participants each, and every core feature: self-scheduling, multi-round judging, advancing, chair placement, results and reports.

Do participants or judges have to pay?

Never. Participants and judges sign in free with their email address. Only the organizer running the audition needs a plan.

Do participants need to download an app?

No. AuditionEase runs in any web browser on a phone, tablet or computer. Participants open your invite link, sign up and pick a time slot in a couple of minutes.

When should I upgrade to Ensemble?

When an audition needs more than 10 participants, when you want outside judges on your panel (with blind or anonymous judging), or when you want to export reports. Ensemble covers up to 200 participants per audition.

Can I cancel or change plans anytime?

Yes. Upgrade whenever you need to, and moving from Ensemble to Institution only charges the prorated difference for the rest of your billing period. If you cancel, you keep your paid features until the end of the billing period, then your account moves to the free plan. We keep all of your data for 45 days in case you come back; after that, anything beyond the free plan's limits may be deleted.

Can I pay yearly?

Yes, and you get 2 months free: Ensemble is $199.50 a year and Institution is $499.50 a year. Already paying monthly? Switch to yearly anytime from Billing, and the unused part of your month comes off the first yearly charge.

What if it isn't right for us?

If you're not satisfied, email support@auditionease.com within 7 days of your first payment for a full refund.

Can I try it before inviting real participants?

Yes. Every account comes with a sandbox audition full of sample participants, time slots and judge scores, so you can try scheduling, judging, advancing and placement before you invite anyone.

Is our data secure?

Sign-in uses one-time email codes instead of passwords, your data and recordings are encrypted at rest, and payments are handled by Stripe. We never see your card number.
