PitchWise charts every bullpen and game pitch by pitch and keeps every arm on your team accounted for: pitch counts, rest days, arm readiness and command, all in one place. Built by a varsity coach for the way coaches actually work. FOR COACHES Tap where each pitch crossed and PitchWise does the rest. Set a target and see how far each pitch missed, in inches, not just whether it was a strike. Add pitch types, a radar reading or a quick velocity estimate when you want them, and nothing when you don't. Your Home screen shows who's ready to throw today, based on rest days and each pitcher's own arm check-in. Pitch Smart rest rules and your state's pitch limits are built in. Game mode counts pitches live and warns you before a pitcher reaches the limit. Analytics show strike percentage trends, command by pitcher, pitch mix and misses for the last 30 days or the whole season. Practice plans go out to the team and you see who checked them off. FOR ATHLETES Free, always. Join your team with a code, check in on your arm each day, chart your own bullpens, and watch your strike percentage and heatmaps over the season. Your coach sees it; your teammates don't.
