## What is MATS?

Find your next roll. Train with people you trust.
Built for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioners who want more mat time - without the uncertainty of random partners or unclear venue access.
Book sessions, join open mats, and roll with verified members in BJJ-friendly venues designed for safe, respectful training.
TRAIN MORE, STRESS LESS
Book BJJ sessions at participating venues. Join open mats or private group sessions. Train with partners who fit your schedule and level. Spend less time coordinating and more time rolling.
A COMMUNITY YOU CAN TRUST
BJJ works best when everyone respects the mat. Member identity validation supports a safer community. Peer reviews encourage accountability and good behavior. Members with repeated critical negative feedback may require admin review. This isn't about rankings - it's about keeping training fair and enjoyable.
SMART ACCESS & SESSION VIDEO
Session-based access at supported venues. Entry and exit tied to booked sessions. Sessions may be recorded for safety and transparency. Participants can download videos from their sessions. Review your rolls, study positions, or keep footage for improvement.
COACHING & FEEDBACK (COMING SOON)
Coaches and tutors reviewing session footage. Technical comments and structured feedback. Learn from real rounds, not just theory.
Built by the BJJ community, for the BJJ community. More rolls. Better training. Stronger community.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.1.3 — 2026-08-10

What's new in 2.1.3

• Clearer home timeline — overlapping sessions now appear at their true start times and sit side by side, so nothing hides behind another card
• Session join and edit windows now follow the session location's timezone, so availability is always accurate wherever you are
• Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy now open right inside the app, and we ask for your acknowledgment when you sign up or log in — including with Apple or Google
• Sessions running past midnight now correctly show as still in progress
• Coaches: quick access to your location's WhatsApp group, right from your profile
• Plus smaller fixes and polish — long host names no longer overlap badges, and loading recovers properly after a connection error

### 2.1.2 — 2026-07-30
