Scoutly is built for VEX V5RC teams who need the right information quickly on competition day. Search current-season teams and events, then open schedules, results, rankings, skills scores, elimination brackets, and event agendas. Follow your team's next matches from Home. Open Match Prep to compare the teams in an upcoming match, and use ScoutScore-based predictions when enough data is available. Whiteboard gives you Match and Skills field layouts for planning routes and autonomous runs. Draw on the field, add labels, zoom and pan to inspect a section, save a preferred orientation, and share the finished plan as an image. The built-in calculator, official game manual, and Q&A keep common event-day tools in one place. Watch teams, review team statistics, compare alliances, filter leaderboards, and create a Tournament Recap after an event. Contact QR cards let you share only the details you choose to enter. Scoutly uses public competition data. Schedules, rankings, team details, and predictions can be delayed or unavailable. Predictions are estimates, not official results. Scoutly marks stale or unavailable data when it can. Scoutly is made by Control Studios. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by VEX Robotics, RECF, RobotEvents, or any event partner.
