Chalk It Up
The problem.
Pool leagues run on spreadsheets, group chats and one person who knows how the fixtures work. The existing league software is dated, priced for organisers rather than players, and gives a player almost nothing between match nights. We wanted to know what a league platform looks like when the player is the primary user, so we built one.
What we built.
Chalk It Up is our own product and our proving ground. It is a multi-league platform with standings, player statistics and Monte Carlo simulations that project how a season is likely to finish, plus insight generation that turns those numbers into plain English. Captains manage rosters and score matches live. Venues run a standalone kiosk on a screen in the pub that feeds results straight back into the league. It ships as a web app and through the Play Store, with passkey and PIN sign-in designed for someone using a shared venue tablet rather than a personal laptop.
