The RecordRanks Platform Is Here!

I'm happy to announce that the RecordRanks Platform – the all-in-one competition management and sports rankings solution – is now live and ready to power up your sports community!

The RecordRanks Platform has been in development for some time, and we're proud to say it's already being used by a growing number of sports communities. It's the platform behind Cubing Contests, with 1,100+ competitions, 12,000+ competitors, and 36,000+ results to date, used at major events like the Rubik's WCA World Championship 2025 and the European Championship 2026 and 2024, side-by-side with the official World Cube Association competitions.

RecordRanks itself is also used by Google's Speedcubing Club for organising their online competitions and automating the rankings, and by a local speedcubing community in Greece for getting members more involved in their competitive scene.

Now, we're opening the doors to other up-and-coming sports communities!

What is RecordRanks?

RecordRanks is a full-featured platform for organising competitions, managing results, and tracking rankings and records. It's best suited for performance-based sports – think powerlifting, running, speedcubing, bouldering, or video game speedrunning – where every competitor gets a measurable result that determines their placement.

Common Use Cases

RecordRanks can support most sports communities – both large and small – and it works particularly well for:

• University and school clubs: many schools and universities have clubs hosting competitive events for members, which RecordRanks supports exceptionally well
• Venues for local communities: places that host local competitive events to promote community engagement (e.g. puzzle shops)
• Online tournaments: you can host recurring competitions where users submit their own results online, while you stay in control to ensure fairness
• Gyms and other sports venues: local competitive events hosted at gyms, rock climbing gyms, and other sports venues

And more! If you organise regular competitive events, RecordRanks is a great choice for hosting them and keeping your sports community engaged.

Key features include:

• Competition management – select your events, rounds, schedules, etc., and give organisers access
• Live results entry – automated round standings and records (World, continental, national)
• Automated rankings with advanced filtering and sorting, as well as a full history of records
• Competitor profiles – managed easily by your team, keeping you in control of the data
• Role-based access – assign your admins and organisers to help with community moderation
• Online leaderboards – community-led rankings with self-submitted results with video evidence
• Full customisation – customise your list of events and regions, choose your own page content, make posts on your dedicated blog, and more
• Data ownership – automated backups, public data exports for the community, no vendor lock-in
• API integrations – secure third-party data entry and public API access, optionally use your own frontend for consistent branding

What's Next?

We're actively working on tournament brackets with a new head-to-head format, along with more community features to keep your members engaged, and more ways to customise and extend the platform to best suit the needs of your sport.

If there's something you'd want to see added, we'd love to hear from you!
