AI rules official
Text- or photo-based rulings grounded in the official Rules of Golf, in English and Spanish — every citation verified, and a refusal rather than a guess when it should.
The road ahead
PaceClub started as an AI rules official. The ambition is bigger: the app every group keeps open for all 18 — for rulings, competition, and belonging to a club. Here's what we've built, what's next, and where we're going.
Available now
In your bag today
Everything here is live in the beta.
Scorekeeping & handicaps
Hole-by-hole digital scorecards with automatic gross, net and course handicap, on real course data.
Group rounds
Up to eight players, one six-character join code, and a shared live leaderboard that updates as everyone scores.
Private clubs
Invite-only communities for your regular crowd — joined in person by QR, never a public directory.
Stroke-play tournaments
Run a club competition: handicap allowances, shotgun starts, net and gross leaderboards, countback tiebreaks, audited host overrides.
Public leaderboards
Share a live leaderboard link — spouses, friends and spectators watch in a browser with no app and no account.
Coming next
On the way
In progress or designed and queued.
Public App Store & Play launch
Out of TestFlight and into the public stores, with production subscriptions.
Android
A polished Android release alongside iOS.
More tournament formats
Best-ball pairs, team scrambles, and Ryder Cup-style match play — beyond stroke play.
Multi-day club championships
Two- and three-day events with a cumulative leaderboard across rounds and courses.
Open registration
Let non-members join a single event by QR — charity scrambles, corporate days, society outings.
On the horizon
The ambitious stuff
Bigger bets we are actively exploring.
Golf Passport
A digital club-membership credential in Apple & Google Wallet. A starter at a partner club scans the QR on your phone to verify your membership and guest privileges — no phone call to the pro shop.
Verified handicaps
GHIN integration to confirm official handicap indexes at registration.
Voice & notifications
Ask for a ruling by voice; get a nudge when your leaderboard position changes or the rules corpus updates.
More languages
Beyond English and Spanish — French, German, Japanese and more.
Web companion
PaceClub in the browser at app.golfpaceclub.com, alongside the mobile apps.
