For every “you had to be there.”


Record your game. Keep the good bits. Share the replay.

Good points have a habit of disappearing into the group chat as “trust me, it was a great shot.” We’re building Uncle Ref to give those moments a home.
Record a match or bring a video. Choose the good bits. Add animated text and make a replay to keep. The browser beta is currently invite-only, including real pickleball footage with live player detection.
Alongside it, we’re building an iOS app with saved player names, manual score confirmation, local capture and nearby-phone camera angles. It’s still in beta, with physical-court testing ahead.
You stay in charge of the moments. We’re not claiming automatic winners, line calls or a 99% qualified model.
Try a match. Tell us where you get stuck, what you’d keep, and what your crew would love.
Take it for a rally ↗
