NextStrike vs CatcherCom

Call every pitch from the dugout and win every count. NextStrike turns your phone into an easy pitch-calling system. Tap the pitch, tap the location, and your catcher hears the call in their earpiece ("Slider, up and away") before the batter digs in. No hand signs, no wristband cards, nothing for the other dugout to read. Built for baseball and softball coaches from 9U to college. WHY COACHES SWITCH - Calls in under a second. Tap your phone instead of touching your face or arm, and the call is in your catcher's ear. - Private by design. With an earpiece connected, calls play only in your catcher's ear, so your dugout and the other bench can't hear them. - No hardware to buy. Works with Bluetooth earbuds your catcher already owns. - More than a walkie-talkie. Pitcher arsenals, pitch counts and outcome tagging are built in. EVERY PITCHER'S ARSENAL Set up each arm on your staff with the pitches they actually throw: four-seam and two-seam fastballs, slider, cutter, sinker, changeup, splitter, curveball, knuckleball or a custom pitch. Call locations by number (zones 1 to 9) or by name (up and away, down and in) when you want to paint corners. Pick-off and shake are one tap away. SEE WHAT WORKED, PITCH BY PITCH - A full pitch log for every pitcher, organized by game and inning - Tag each pitch as a strike, ball, foul, hit, out, error or hit by pitch - Innings advance after three outs, and pitch counts keep themselves - Game summaries with strike rates to review between starts TALK TO YOUR CATCHER Hold the mic to send your voice straight to your catcher's earpiece between pitches: "3-hole is on deck," "let's steal an out with a back pick," or anything you'd usually shout from the dugout. If a call gets missed, replay one of your last three calls with a single tap. ONE ROSTER, EVERY COACH IN SYNC Invite your assistants and pitching coach at no extra cost. The head coach subscribes, and the whole staff works from the same roster and pitch history. Run up to three teams, like JV and varsity or several travel age groups. WORKS AT ANY FIELD Pitch calling keeps working without a signal, and calls sync when you're back online. The voice that reads each call runs on your phone, not over the internet. PLANS - Free: try pitch calling in the demo, and join a Pro coach's team as an assistant at no cost. - Pro: $99.99 per year or $14.99 per month, with a free trial. Up to 3 teams, 30 players per team, 3 coaching licenses, full pitch history, offline calling and Hold to Talk. - Organization: custom plans for programs with many teams. Contact us through the support link. REQUIREMENTS An iPhone or iPad for the coach, and any Bluetooth earbuds for the catcher. Call it, coach it, win it.

CatcherCom turns your phone into a dugout pitch-calling system. Pair a single Bluetooth earpiece to the catcher, and call pitches from the bench — no shouting, no signs to steal. HOW IT WORKS - Tap a pitch type, then a location — your catcher hears it spoken instantly in the earpiece (e.g. "Fastball, up and in"). - Hold the Talk button to speak live to your catcher, walkie-talkie style. - "Repeat last" replays the previous call. BUILT FOR THE DUGOUT - Big, high-contrast buttons made for quick taps in bright sun. - Calling mode keeps the Bluetooth link awake so the first word is never clipped. - Works fully offline — no accounts, no internet, no second phone. MADE YOUR WAY - Choose which pitches show: Fastball, Curveball, Changeup, Slider, Splitter, Cutter, Knuckleball — or add your own custom pitches. - Switch the location buttons to a 9-box strike-zone grid, with a Righty/Lefty toggle that flips inside/outside automatically. - Pick the spoken voice and adjust the talking speed. PRIVATE BY DESIGN The microphone is used only for live push-to-talk — audio is never recorded, saved, or sent anywhere. CatcherCom collects no data and never connects to the internet. NOTE FOR COACHES Electronic communication rules vary by league and division. Please confirm your league's rules before using CatcherCom in a game. It's always a great fit for practice and bullpens.
