Torix
DB Race Central Closed invite beta

Race day, from first entry to final result.

DB Race Central keeps entries, draws, the race-day schedule, and results together for race and regatta organizers. It opens to a small group of organizers in a closed invite beta before public release.

One place for the race office

Entries

Crews and divisions in one list. Bring in the spreadsheet you already collect entries in, rather than retyping it.

Draws and schedule

Heats and lanes built from your entries, and a schedule crews can follow on the day.

Race day

The running order and the state of each heat, kept where the whole race office can see it.

Results

Times recorded heat by heat and kept with the draw they came from.

Inclusion

Divisions you define, including para and mixed-ability racing.

One account

Sign in with the same Torix Account that opens the other Torix products and the feedback boards.

Shaped by the people who run the race

Organizers in the beta post what their race office needs, vote on each other's requests, and see the status of every one. Anyone can read along on the DB Race Central board.

How the invite beta works

DB Race Central is not open to everyone yet. We are starting small so that each organizer gets real support through their event.

  1. Talk to us about your event

    Tell us about your event: its size, when it runs, and how you manage race day now.

  2. We invite in small rounds

    We reply to every organizer who writes to us, whether or not there is a place this round.

  3. Get your invite

    One email with a link tied to your Torix Account. There is nothing to install before then.

  4. Shape the release

    Use it at your event and tell us what did not work. Public release follows the beta.

Who we are inviting first

Every kind of event is welcome to write to us. These are the things that help us choose each round.

An event during the beta

A race, a regatta, or a club practice day where DB Race Central can be used for real.

Any size

A club regatta with a dozen crews teaches us as much as a multi-day festival.

Para and mixed-ability racing

Events that run these divisions, so they are built in from the start.

Honest feedback

Organizers who will tell us what slowed the race office down.

Questions people ask

How do we get into the beta?

Invitations are passed on by word of mouth. Write to us about your race or regatta and we will tell you where the beta stands.

Who is the beta for?

Anyone who helps run a paddling race or regatta: race directors, committee members, race-office volunteers, club organizers, and timing or results providers.

Can we follow along without being in the beta?

Yes. Anyone can browse the DB Race Central board. With a Torix Account you can also vote, comment, and follow requests.

When is the public release, and what will it cost?

No date has been set. Public release follows the invite beta. Pricing has not been announced.
