The part nobody else nails

Build your scoring system and watch it become the recap

Setting up scoring is where legacy tools punish you. Ours is the one part of the job you can actually see while you do it.

One-click templates

Start from your event's system, or build your own

Pick your event's standard system in one click and tweak it, or build your own from scratch - captions and sub-captions, laid out the way judges and directors actually think about them.

👀 See it before you save it

The builder looks like the actual recap

While you build, press View Example Recap and the system renders as the real recap your judges and bands will see. No abstract table of categories and multipliers to picture in your head - what you build is what everyone gets.

Placeholder: the right card awaits the purpose-made builder-rendering-as-recap screenshot. Legacy tools build the same captions and sub-captions through nested configuration menus, with reuse handled by cloning a system you already built. Sources at the bottom.

Why directors switch

Stood up in one sitting, not learned over a season

The same scoring concepts you already know - without the tab-room PhD to set them up.

📊

Automatic tabulation

The headache
Collecting caption sheets and tallying totals and rankings by hand while bands wait in the parking lot.
The cure
As judges submit, totals, class rankings, overall placement, and performance ratings calculate themselves.
🎤

Judge commentary, delivered

The headache
Exporting audio, emailing files around, and fielding “where's our commentary?” emails for a week.where's our commentary? emails for a week after the show.
The cure
Judges record audio commentary in the app, and you send it to each band whenever you choose - even between rounds, before final scores go out.
🔑

You control the release

The headache
Scrambling to hold scores, then post them to a website and notify everyone separately.
The cure
Decide exactly when and who sees scores. One click shares them with bands or posts them to your event site.
📱

An app judges actually like

The headache
Adjudicators wrestling clunky software mid-contest - frozen screens, failed logins, lost commentary.
The cure
In the Marching Maestro app, judges enter scores, record commentary, take notes, and track timing - and it just works.
