Pinli is tournament software for golf organizers — and this is the companion app for the moments the web dashboard can't reach. On the course. At the registration table. Between the 9th and the 10th. Run your event with clarity, not chaos. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Check players in — mark teams arrived and paid, and clear the starting area without a clipboard. • Track payments — see who's paid, mark cash or check payments as they come in, and close out your field without wondering who still owes. • Tournament progress at a glance — field status, payment totals, sponsor commitments, and anything still open. • Live scoreboard — watch standings update hole by hole as your scorers submit. • Sponsor management — pull up sponsor details, levels, and status on the fly. • Manage every tournament you organize — the app shows tournaments you own or have been added to as an organizer. WHO IT'S FOR Pinli is built for the people who actually run golf tournaments — charity committees, club pros, corporate event planners, and league operators. If you've ever tried to run an event from a laptop in the pro shop while juggling a spreadsheet and a radio, this is for you. DAY-OF TOOLING, OPINIONATED We built the app around a simple idea: on tournament day, you don't want to open a dashboard. You want to do one thing at a time, with big taps, on the device that's already in your hand. The mobile app mirrors the parts of Pinli you need on the move — the rest stays on the web, where it belongs. WORKS WITH YOUR PINLI ACCOUNT Sign in with the same account you use on pinli.io. Every tournament you own or organize shows up automatically. No separate setup. WHAT'S NEXT Scoring for participants is on the roadmap — so if you're playing in a Pinli-run event, you'll be able to enter scores for your group without a paper card. We'll roll that out as part of a future update. Learn more at https://pinli.io

Verdict

FanGraphs's advantage is ratings volume (393 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
