The group chat and the
spreadsheet, retired.
Calendar and RSVPs, roll call, announcements, polls, group chats, the roster, the photo album and the club fee ledger — one app your whole club already knows how to use, with no subscription or per-member software charge, and an AI that seats the boat.
Plan it. Run it. Keep the crew together.
Core club tools are free: no subscription and no per-member software charge. AI analyses and optional SMS use credits. Your club can also collect dues through its connected Stripe account; PaddleLens keeps 1% of each payment for US clubs and 3% for clubs elsewhere; Stripe's processing fee is separate.
Schedule the water time, see who is going, maybe or can’t, and keep the reminder with the practice.
What else this workflow covers
- Sessions and events — one-off or weekly, with a calendar subscription for each member
- Weather for the launch spot — shown with the session up to three days ahead
- Attendance export — a monthly CSV keeps there, missed and unmarked distinct
Take roll on the dock without turning an unanswered name into an absence.
What else this workflow covers
- Three attendance states — there, missed or unmarked — a session nobody marked counts against nobody
- Follow-up without spam — nudge only the members who have not replied
- Practice history — attendance remains available by member and by month
Roles, squads, invites and dues live with the people they describe.
What else this workflow covers
- Invite by link or code — use a standing join link you can regenerate or switch off
- Roles and squads — coach, assistant coach and paddler across one club roster
- Season dues — members pay into the club’s own connected Stripe account; cash payments can be marked manually
An announcement, poll or chat keeps the decision and its replies together instead of lost in a thread.
What else this workflow covers
- Announcements and polls — send a notice to your club — or several clubs you coach — and see answers arrive as a count
- Group chats and direct messages — talk to a race crew, a side or one member, with photos and files in the thread
- Optional text alerts — urgent notices can use the club’s pay-as-you-go text credits
Everyone paddles. Nobody argues
with the bubble level.
Tell it who showed up. It seats every single paddler, trims the hull around your steersperson, and explains every seat — tap one and see the why.
- DB20, DB10, OC1 and OC6 — build a plan for the craft you are taking out, including a partly filled boat
- Competitive, balanced or casual line-ups — the same roster seats differently depending which you ask for
- Trial results are a planning input — PaddleLens uses a provisional, craft-aware performance index alongside side, availability and coaching context. It is not watts, a universal ranking or proof of an optimal crew. How the index is calculated
- Mixed crews across squads — one coach, one pool of paddlers, so a men's, women's and mixed crew come out of one roster instead of three spreadsheets
The paddlers who turned up, seated — sides balanced, the steersperson accounted for, and the reasoning behind the lineup there when somebody asks.
Every member installs it in one tap. No IT, no rollout, no app store account, and no version anyone has to remember to update.
How to installWhat a committee asks before it says yes
Four questions that decide a club rollout, answered where they're raised rather than in a support thread six weeks later.
It's measured and then deleted. What's kept is the report — the scores, the angles and a handful of annotated frames — never the footage, and nothing you upload trains any model.
Attendance exports as a CSV, a month at a time, and any report saves as a PDF from its own page. Ask us for anything else you need and we'll tell you honestly whether it exists yet.
Nothing breaks. A paddler with no analysis simply has no report — they're never averaged in as a zero — and roll call keeps unmarked separate from absent, so a session nobody marked doesn't count against anyone.
There's no subscription to stop. The free in-app club tools keep working. New AI analyses need analysis credits, and optional text alerts need text credits; both are one-time packs that never renew themselves.
No app store. No download.
No updates, ever.
One tap adds PaddleLens to your home screen. It opens full-screen like any other app — same icon, same feel — and it's always the current version, because there's nothing to update. Nobody on your crew has to make an Apple ID or find anything in a store.
- Full-screen, with no Safari bars
- Its own icon, beside every other app
- Camera-roll upload without leaving it
- Full-screen, its own launcher icon
- In the app drawer like any install
- The back gesture behaves as the phone expects
- Nothing to install to try it
- Same account and data on every device
- Always the current version
The whole clubhouse, free.
Practices, roll call, announcements, messages, the roster and the boat builder. No subscription, no per-member charge, no card.
