We build the boring
half of a great
sports venue.
The half nobody posts about: who has court three at 7pm, whether they paid, and what to do when two people want the same hour.
It started with a
court, a chat group,
and a mess.
Pickleball grew faster in the Philippines than the tools around it. Venues opened, courts filled, and the booking system stayed the same: a group chat, a screenshot of a payment, and somebody's cousin keeping a list.
It works until it doesn't. Two people book the same hour. A deposit gets lost in a thread. A regular gives up and plays somewhere else. Every one of those is an hour of court time that earned nothing.
ReadyCourt exists to make that hour sellable.
Four rules we
don't break
Opinions we've paid for. They shape what ships and, more often, what doesn't.
The venue owns its customers
Your booking page is yours: your domain, your branding, your players. We're not a marketplace and we won't sell your customers a court down the road.
Never charge per booking
A price that grows every time you succeed is a tax on your own marketing. Whatever we charge, it will never be that. Fill every hour and it changes nothing.
No app, ever
Asking a first-time player to install something is how you lose them. A link, a page, a booking. That's the whole journey.
Correct beats clever
We solved double-booking in the database rather than the interface: every hour a booking touches is claimed in a ledger with a unique index on it, so the second write fails rather than overlapping the first.
A small team that
answers its own
messages.
We're a small independent product team based in the Philippines. Small enough that when you send a message, the person who reads it is the person who can fix it.
We're not raising a round, chasing a hundred markets, or planning to be acquired and shut down in two years. We'd like to run good software for courts, get paid fairly for it, and still be here in five years.
