About

The platform strongman
deserved

Spreadsheets and clipboards don't belong at a modern strongman show. Strongman Live brings real-time scoring, athlete protests, live video, and permanent athlete records to every event — from a local throwdown to a national final.

Why we built it

Strongman has exploded — but the tools running most contests haven't kept up. Scores live on a clipboard, standings are tallied by hand between events, and fans at home have no idea who's winning until someone posts a photo of a whiteboard. Athletes travel for hours to compete, then walk away with nothing but a placement scribbled on paper.

We thought the iron deserved better. Strongman Live runs the whole competition — scoring, judging, divisions, protests, and the broadcast — in one place, updating live across every screen. Athletes build a real public record. Fans actually get to watch. And organizers stop fighting spreadsheets and get to run their show.

What makes it different

Everything is live

A judge taps "good lift" and the points, placements, and overall standings recalculate instantly — on the venue board, the stream overlay, and every fan's phone at once.

🛡️

Athletes have a voice

No other platform lets an athlete formally challenge a ruling from their phone. The competition creator sets the limit; head judges uphold or overturn — and an overturn auto-corrects the score.

📺

Built for the broadcast

Stream the whole show and let athletes run their own cameras. Fans watch the broadcast, any competitor's POV, and the protest feed right next to the live scoreboard.

🏆

Records that last

Every athlete gets a public profile that fills in automatically — weight class, photo, and a permanent history of placements and points across every event they enter.

👥

Your whole crew

Head judge, lane judge, scorekeeper, announcer, admin — invite your team with a code and the exact access each role needs. Strongman first, powerlifting in the same engine.

Free to run

Honest pricing

Running a competition costs nothing — and never will. Spin up an event, score it live, invite judges, stream it, and publish results for free.

  • No charge to create or run a competition, ever
  • Unlimited events, divisions, judges, and athletes
  • Live scoring, boards, overlays, video embeds, and public profiles included
  • When you choose to collect entry fees through the platform, you pay only standard payment processing plus a small platform fee on those transactions — nothing to simply run the show

Common questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Running competitions is free. You only pay payment-processing fees on paid registrations you opt into collecting — there's no fee just to use the platform.

What sports does it support?

Strongman is the focus, with powerlifting running on the same scoring engine. You can also build fully custom events with your own scoring.

Do athletes need an account?

To register, compete, and challenge rulings, yes — a free account. Fans need nothing at all to watch.

Can fans watch live?

Yes. The watch page streams live scores, the competition video, athlete cameras, and the live protest feed — no login required.

Can athletes stream themselves?

Yes. An athlete can add their own stream link and fans can switch to their POV right next to the live board.

How do challenges work?

An athlete disputes a judge's call from their phone, up to the limit the creator sets. A head judge upholds it (the call stands) or overturns it — and an overturn automatically corrects the score and standings.

What do I need to start?

Just an account. Create your organization, build a competition, and open registration. A custom domain and branding are optional extras down the line.
