Qaoki is karaoke that finally feels like a real show. One live queue per room, the lyrics in sync on every phone and the big screen, and a crowd that cheers you on while you sing. No paper list. No binder. No one hogging the aux cable. Just grab the mic — the whole room sings with you.
The fun problem we’re solving
Karaoke night is one of the best things humans do together. The tech around it, though? Usually held together with tape.
You know the drill. A clipboard and a pen by the speakers. One person’s phone playing the track for everyone. The lyrics scrolling on a TV that’s a beat-and-a-half behind the music. And when you absolutely nail that high note, the only way the room can show love is by clapping a little harder. We thought that whole night deserved better.
So Qaoki rebuilt it around the thing that makes karaoke magic — the room.
- One shared queue. Everyone adds songs from their own phone; the night flows in order, no clipboard required.
- Lyrics in perfect sync. The DJ’s player is the master clock, so every phone and the projected screen land on the same line at the same moment. Sing along from your seat or up on stage — you’re never lost.
- A crowd that reacts in real time. Send cheers while someone’s performing. The best singers climb the stars leaderboard. Karaoke gets a scoreboard, and it turns out that’s a lot of fun.
- One profile, every venue. Your handle, your favorites, your cheers — they follow you from bar to bar. Check in, and you’re ready to sing.
- A room hosts can actually run. DJs and hosts get a projected screen with the live queue, synced lyrics, and controls for the whole night — from one place.
Free to sing, opt-in if you want to be filmed, and on iOS, Android, and the web. Real-time karaoke, in sync — the way it always should have been.
Built by 2 Lovelaces
Qaoki is a product by 2 Lovelaces — the name’s a nod to Ada Lovelace, the world’s first computer programmer. Fitting, because 2 Lovelaces builds products, not just applications: things real people use, architected to solve real problems.
That shows up everywhere in Qaoki. The lyric-sync isn’t a demo trick — it’s a shared clock engineered to keep dozens of phones honest at once. The cheers, the queue, the roles, the venues: all built by an agile team that ships, tests rigorously, and sticks around to scale past “day 100” when the rooms fill up. 2 Lovelaces likes to say they’re technical partners, not vendors — bringing disciplined testing, honest feedback, and shared ownership to every release. Qaoki is what that looks like on a Friday night: a polished, real-time product, not a weekend hack.
