+TBA is an emergency line for the night a club's DJ cancels. The manager posts one call, and every DJ who is in that city tonight and plays that style is alerted on Telegram and by email. The first to claim it gets it, the venue approves, and only then do the two sides see each other's contact details. It is live at plustba.com.
It began as gig-route, a booking marketplace with negotiation, deposits and a social feed. The second version cut all of that down to one night and one broadcast, and the rest was left out on purpose: no payments yet, no chat, no ratings, no native app. It was called DJ SOS while it was built and renamed +TBA in October 2026.
The design brief was a pager, not a poster — it dispatches rather than announces. Near-black, black-and-white photography and one red signal colour. DJs keep profiles with their sets, styles and gear and say when they are in town; venues get a control room for their calls; a public map shows who is where.
The part that has to be right is the claim. Every state change is a single database function and row-level security is on for every table; test suites race simultaneous claims and invites against the real database and check that no contact detail leaks before approval. Built on Next.js and Supabase by AI coding agents working to Tal's specification — 236 commits between 14 September and 18 October 2026.
