Spottr for Martial arts schools

Attendance and grading, in the same place as everything else.

Hours on the mat, not just sessions attended.

You need to know who has trained enough hours to grade, and the answer currently lives in a paper book behind the desk.

The job, not the feature

Here today

built and working
  • A timetable with a register

    Schedule classes, cap them, and read who came. Every attendance is a dated record you can count rather than a mark in a book.

  • Your school in the directory

    Findable by distance, so a beginner searching nearby lands on you.

Not yet

does not exist

Named rather than hinted at. Four of the thirteen platforms in this market will not tell you what they cost at all; none of them will tell you what they cannot do.

  • Grading, belts and syllabus

    There is no belt or grade tracking, no syllabus, no hours-to-grade calculation. This is the specific thing that would make Spottr worth switching to for a martial arts school, and it is not built.

  • Memberships, billing and family accounts

    No recurring payment and no family or sibling accounts, which most schools need on day one.

And what they get

The half of this market nobody bothers with

Students get a training log of their own, useful for the strength and conditioning work around the mat time, and theirs to keep and export whether or not they stay at your school.

What it costs

Your own training

Free

Logging, routines, the calendar, sharing, the directory and classes. Not a trial of these, and no card to start.

Depth, per person

$5.00/mo

Long-term progress charts and coaching a roster. No card to start, and everything else stays free. $50.00 a year if you prefer.

There is no venue plan yet, and no price for one

Everything above is per person. A plan for a business does not exist, because the things a business would be paying for, memberships, recurring billing, waitlists, check-in, are the things listed under “not yet”. When it exists, its price will be a number on the pricing page.

The full pricing page · What happens if you leave

Coming from Zen Planner or Kicksite?

Your own training history imports, a delimited file, with you confirming which column is which before a row is written, free and with no subscription first. A list of other people does not yet, and pretending otherwise would be the first broken promise. What there is either way: nothing to unpick if you change your mind. Everything you put into Spottr comes back out as a spreadsheet, on any plan, including one that has lapsed, with one click and no support ticket.

  • Zen Planner
  • Kicksite
  • Mindbody
  • a paper attendance book

Bringing a list of people across is the biggest single blocker in this market, and it is being built. In the meantime there is something more useful than a promise: exactly which fields survive an export from your current platform, including the ones that do not, which is the list nobody else publishes.

The fair objection

“There is nothing here for grading yet, so why would I look now?”

You probably should not switch yet, and saying so is more use to you than a demo. This page exists so you can see the state of it honestly and decide when to look again. What is here today is a timetable and an attendance record; grading is named above as missing rather than implied by a screenshot.

Start free, decide later.

No card, and a free tier that does not expire. Pay only if the paid part turns out to be worth it.
