Built by people who've actually run the events.
CorSports is the platform we wanted while we were on the other side of the spreadsheet. Two co-founders, two decades of running events between us, one shared frustration with how the operations side has been taped together.
Two operators. Twenty years between us.
[TODO: bio] Story to follow — the short version: we've been the host union, the team manager, the match commissioner, the venue operator and the vendor. Different sides of the same spreadsheet.
[TODO: bio] Personal bio to be written by Coris. Keep operator-to-operator voice, specific tournaments and venues, no marketing slop.

The principles we won't break.
These aren't marketing language — they're the operating principles for the build.
- 01
Operator-first, always.
Every feature ships with a question: would you actually use this on the day? If the answer's 'maybe in v2' it gets cut. Operators have spent years working around bad tools — they don't need a new one to work around.
- 02
Freemium by design.
Every product has a Free tier that's genuinely useful — not a 14-day trial, not a feature-stripped demo. A small club paying nothing should still get real value. Sophistication is monetised; the basics aren't.
- 03
Sport- and event-agnostic.
We started in rugby. The platform doesn't know that. Conferences, ceremonies, broadcast, athletics, hockey, festivals — same primitives. The world doesn't need rugby-shaped event software.
- 04
Configurable without dev gatekeeping.
If a sensible operator could reasonably need to change a setting without a code release, that setting lives in the UI. We don't make customers raise tickets for things they should own themselves.
- 05
Engineering blueprint, not marketing veneer.
The platform is built like a serious operator's tool. Multi-tenant from day one. Audit log on every state change. Tenant-isolated queries. We make architectural decisions like the platform's going to outlive us — because it should.
Why this exists.
[TODO: origin story] The longer story — when, where, why we decided to build this — is being written by Josh and Coris personally.
Until then: we've been the operators on the other side of every spreadsheet, every WhatsApp group, every PDF briefing pack mailed out the night before kick-off. The platform is what we wanted while we were doing that work.
