The console.
The codes. The display.
- 01
Venue Console
Web dashboard for creating, configuring, and managing competitions. Nothing to install. Works from the office, the bar, or behind the rail.
- 02
Join codes
Share a short code or QR. Players join from their own phone in seconds. No download friction at the door.
- 03
Auto-scored leaderboard
Standings update in real time as games finish. No manual chasing. No spreadsheet syncs.

- 05
Configurable rules
Lock game type, format, match length, and house rules per competition. Every game plays the same way.
Four steps.
That's the flow.
Configure the rules
Live tracking or winner-only. Race-to or best-of. Lock house rules like scratch-on-8 or push-out so every game is played the same way.
Activate & share
Move from draft to active. Share the join code on a printed sheet, in the group chat, or as a QR on the bar TV.
Watch it run
Games auto-score. Standings update live. Turn on the TV display. When the time window closes, final standings lock.
Players join.
Players play.
No organiser access required. Open the app. Type the code. Play the night.
Join with a code
Type the join code or scan the QR. The app checks you in at the venue automatically and marks you as competing.
Play your games
Start a game from the competition screen. Rules, format, and tag are locked in. Finish the game normally. It counts.
Check the leaderboard
Standings update after every game. Check your rank in the app or look at the venue TV. Go casual any time to play untagged side games without leaving the competition.
Two games.
Every rule.
- 01
8-Ball
1v1 or 2v2. Live tracking with full shot recording, or winner-only for speed. Lock eight-on-break, scratch-on-8, wrong-pocket-8, three-foul loss, confirmation shots, and more.
- 02
9-Ball
1v1 format. Configure lowest-ball-first, combo/carom shots, 9-on-break, push-out rules, winner-breaks, and three-foul loss. Live tracking or winner-only.
- 03
Match length
Single game, race-to N, or best-of N (odd numbers). Set once per competition. Every match follows the same format.
- 04
Tracking mode
Live: shot-by-shot recording with rule enforcement. Winner-only: just log who won. Faster for casual nights, deeper for serious ones.
- 05
2v2 teams (8-ball)
Players pick a teammate when joining. Team invites last 72 hours. Both teammates share the same record.
Pick the method
that fits the night.
The organiser sets the scoring system when creating the competition. Three options. Each one tuned for a different shape of night.
3 points per win
Simple and immediate. Play more, score more. Best for short nights with a clear points leader.
Win percentage with floor
Rewards consistency over volume. Players must hit a minimum game threshold before they appear on the board. No one-game wonders.
Win rate weighted by games
Balances skill and commitment. Score accelerates with each game and plateaus around 20+. Ideal for longer competitions where sample size should matter.
Cast the board.
Keep the room watching.
Turn on the display from the Venue Console. Open the link on any screen. TV, tablet, laptop behind the bar. No app install required on the display device.
What it shows
Rank, player name, record (W-L), and score. Medal icons for top three. Competition title, venue name, game type, and time remaining. Real-time updates as games finish.
Public URL
No sign-in needed to view. Open the URL in a browser on your venue TV. Leaderboard updates automatically. Rotate the display link from the console if needed.
Rotate between competitions
Running multiple competitions in the same room? The display rotates between them automatically. One screen, every active board.
Every game,
validated.
The system checks every game before counting it toward the leaderboard. No manual review required.
- 01
Tagged games only
When a player starts a game from the competition screen, it is automatically tagged. Only tagged games count. Players can switch to casual mode any time to play side games that do not affect the leaderboard.
- 02
Automatic validation
The system checks that game type, format, tracking mode, match length, and rule settings all match the competition config. If anything is off, the game is not counted. Organisers do not need to review games manually.
Less chasing.
More energy.
Less manual chasing
Players score their own games. Standings build themselves. No one needs to find the organiser to ask who is winning.
Better player visibility
The leaderboard is visible in the app and on the venue TV. Players stay engaged because they can see where they stand without asking.
Looks professional
A live leaderboard on the TV. Consistent rules across every match. A join code at the bar. The night feels like an actual event.
Short answers,
fast.
Do venues need approval to run competitions?
Yes. Venue organiser access is granted after a request. It is not open self-service. This keeps the system reliable and prevents misuse of venue-level features.
Is this only for big tournaments?
No. It is built for recurring weekly pool nights and informal competitions where 6 to 30 players want structured scoring and a visible leaderboard without spreadsheet admin.
How do players join a competition?
They open the app and enter the join code (or scan a QR). The app checks them in at the venue and marks them as competing. For 2v2 events, they also pick a teammate.
Can players play casual games during a competition?
Yes. Players can switch to casual mode at any time. Casual games will not be tagged and will not affect the competition leaderboard. They can switch back without leaving the competition.
What happens if a game does not match the competition rules?
The system validates game type, format, tracking mode, match length, and individual rule settings. If anything does not match, the game is not counted toward the leaderboard.
Does the venue TV display need a login?
No. The display URL is public. Just open it in a browser on any screen. The leaderboard updates in real time without authentication.
Which scoring method should I choose?
Win Points for short, fast nights. Win Rate for skill-focused events with enough games. Performance Index for longer competitions where both consistency and volume should count.
Can I run multiple competitions at the same venue?
Yes. Create separate competitions in the Venue Console. Players join whichever ones they want. The TV display can rotate between active competitions automatically.
Run a cleaner
competition night.
Start with venue organiser access. Once approved, you can create your first competition from the Venue Console in a few minutes.
