How Setlist works.

Sign in, make a board, pin what you find, and arrange it however you like. Share it with your people or keep it to yourself. That's the whole thing.

1. Sign in — no password

Setlist uses your instruments account. Enter your email and we send a one-time sign-in link; click it and you're in. Same identity across instruments, Symphony, Score, and Setlist — and your contacts come with you.

2. Make a board

Give it a title and pick who can see it — just you, or your contacts. A board starts empty and private by default; you fill it as you go. Make one for the kitchen remodel, one for the trip, one for the dinner party.

3. Pin what you find

• Upload an image straight from your device.
• Paste a link to any page and pick the image off it — the source link comes along so you can get back to it.
• Use the bookmarklet to save from any site in one click, without leaving the page.
• Add a note to a pin, and rearrange pins into whatever order tells the story. Up to 200 per board.

4. Share, or don't

Keep a board private, or flip it to your contacts and it shows up for the people you're mutually connected with — most recently updated first. There's no public link and no stranger feed. The source link on a pin is just a link — no ads, no affiliate rewriting, no price tracking. The absence is the point.

Common questions

Is Setlist free?
Yes — Setlist is free to use, with no ads and no tracking.

How is it different from Pinterest?
No ads, no algorithmic feed of strangers, no affiliate or shop-the-look rewriting of your links, and no public boards. Your boards stay private or are shared only with people you actually know.

Is it private?
Yes. Boards are private by default. You can share one with your mutual contacts, but there is no public link and no way for strangers to find it.

Do I need a separate account?
No — Setlist uses your instruments account. The same sign-in works across instruments, Symphony, Score, and Setlist.
