DragonBoat Hub app showing seat planning

What you get

The all-in-one solution

Lineups, rosters, events, club management, tracking, statistics. Everything in one place.

Automated lineup planning

Let the algorithm do the work: one click gets you a physics-optimised seating plan. DragonBoat Hub offers what is likely the smartest algorithm-based lineup engine in the world.

Instead of just adding up weights, our engine calculates the ideal multi-dimensional weight distribution with strict regard for the physical lever laws of every single seat in the boat. Positioning preferences and exclusions are honoured too. For absolute peak performance, power distribution (propulsion) can optionally be factored in and balanced. A perfectly trimmed boat at the push of a button.

Balanced formation

The development of the technological foundation of the algorithm used here, created by Christian Lange (www.dragontrim.app), has been certified as an eligible research and development project under the German Research Allowance Act (FZulG) by the BSFZ.

Your whole team at a glance

Every piece of relevant information about every team member, at a glance, in one place. Already have a list? Upload a CSV and get started in seconds.

Scheduling without the group-chat mess

Create a training session, a regatta, or a team dinner. Your paddlers RSVP directly in the app and you see immediately who's in. No more endless scrolling through messages.

Live RSVP tracking

Live tracking for training and racing

Speed, time, distance, and stroke rate live throughout every session. Everything is saved automatically so you can analyse each session in detail afterwards. Hard data instead of gut feeling.

Live tracking

Club management with clear structures

Set up your club, assign roles: owner, admin, member. Everyone has exactly the rights they need. Multiple teams? All from one account.

Statistics that actually help

Relevant information on every training session and competition tracked through the app.

Health and fitness

Optionally connect Apple Health or Google Fit. Emergency contacts for the whole team, because on the water someone should always know who to call in an emergency.

Pink Paddlers? We've got a Pink Mode for you.

Set up your club

Download the app, name your club, and share an invite code. Your whole team joins with a single tap, no accounts to create for them.

Build your roster

Add paddlers manually or import a CSV with weight, paddle side, and role. Your roster is live and everyone can see it.

Plan with confidence

Drop paddlers into lineups with live balance feedback. Schedule events and watch RSVPs come in. No guessing, no chasing.

Questions we get a lot

Yes! Right now DragonBoat Hub is completely free to use with the full feature set. We want every team to benefit from the platform, which is why we will always keep a free version that covers everything a normal team needs for day-to-day training and organisation. As we keep developing the system and carry real server costs, we may in the future offer a few highly specialised or compute-intensive pro features exclusively to Premium users.

On iOS, Android, and in the browser on any desktop. iPhone, iPad, Samsung, Pixel, Mac, or Windows PC, the web app runs right in your browser, no install required. Your data syncs across every device, so you can plan on your laptop at home and check in on your phone at the dock.

Every paddler has a weight on file. When you drag them into a seat, the app instantly calculates the load distribution, left versus right, front versus back. You see the balance change in real time as you rearrange people. No formulas, no guesswork.

Yes. During the Open Beta you can manage as many clubs and teams in parallel as you like. Each club has its own roster, events, and lineups, all separate. Useful if you coach multiple squads or your club fields different crews for different competitions.

Metric and imperial. Whether kilograms or pounds, kilometres or miles, you pick what fits your team in the settings. Wherever you paddle, the app speaks your language.

English and German today. More languages are on the way. You can switch anytime in settings.

We're in an exciting phase: DragonBoat Hub has just entered Open Beta. This is our first combined version, bringing together the strengths of our previous systems. That means you can use and test the app in its full scope starting now. Since this is a beta, you may still run into small bugs or rough edges here and there. Thanks for your patience. Your feedback is our fuel: if you spot an issue or have an idea for an improvement, let us know directly. You're actively helping us turn DragonBoat Hub into the best solution for every dragon boat paddler. Be part of the build and let's push the sport forward together.
