Real coaches. Real recruiters. A fraction of the cost.
Built for the families who want their athlete seen — without the contract, the pressure, or the four-figure bill. Plans from $5/mo to $30/mo.
Your athlete is never alone in a thread.
COPPA-first design for 6th–8th graders. Transparent threads for high-schoolers.
COPPA-aware from day one
Every Youth account starts in PENDING status. No messaging, no public visibility, until you click the approval link from your inbox. Revoke at any time from the same page.
Verified coaches only
Every coach on rotation is vetted — high-school staff you can look up, college recruiters tied to an athletic department email. No anonymous mentors, no DMs from strangers.
Parent can read every thread
For Youth accounts, the parent email gets a read-only copy of every coach thread. No private back-channels. For High School accounts, parents can opt in at setup.
You’re not signing up blind.
This is the app your athlete logs into — and for anyone under 18, the account you own and control. Every coach message and recruiter view is visible to you.
