SnapStrike turns your phone into a bowling scorekeeper. Point your camera at the lane display and it reads every player's frame-by-frame scores automatically — no re-entry required. HOW SNAP WORKS Standard Scan runs up to 27 image-processing passes on your device, picks the best result, and delivers every detected player's complete 10-frame scorecard in 10–15 seconds — all without leaving your phone. For even greater accuracy, AI Enhanced Scan uses Claude Vision (Anthropic's AI). Add your Anthropic API key in Settings and SnapStrike sends your photo directly from your device to Anthropic — not through any SnapStrike backend. Results come back in 3–5 seconds with near-perfect accuracy, even on split indicators, dark or animated displays, and unusual scoreboard layouts. Each photo scan costs approximately $0.01, billed directly to your Anthropic account. Either way, you land on the same review screen: inspect each player's scorecard, correct any misread rolls with a simple pin keypad, assign each lane slot to a player profile, and save. The original photo is stored alongside the game record. Supported display systems include Brunswick, QubicaAMF, Bowlero, and AMF. Dark and light scoreboards are both handled. Circled split indicators are recognized — if a frame is missing, a single tap inserts it at the right position so you can fill it in. MANUAL ENTRY No photo? Tap + on the Home tab to enter a game by hand. Add any combination of saved profiles, enter rolls on the pin pad one at a time, and correct any frame by tapping it. Mid-game lineup changes — reordering, substitutions, late arrivals — are all supported. PROFILES & HISTORY Every game is saved under a bowler profile. Create as many as you need — each game, whether from a photo or entered by hand, is attached to one. Swipe to delete games or profiles at any time. STATS DASHBOARD The Stats tab shows, per profile: • All-time average and last-10-games average • High game and best 3-consecutive-game total • Score history chart with your all-time average as a reference line • Strike rate by frame position (frames 1–9) • Spare conversion percentage • Full game history CSV export DESIGNED FOR BOWLERS SnapStrike uses correct bowling scoring throughout — strikes, spares, and 10th-frame bonus rolls handled exactly right. Incomplete games are flagged, not silently miscounted. Roll notation (X, /, –) appears wherever scores are shown. No account. No ads. No subscription. Your data stays on your device.
