What you get with LeagueArc
AI schedule builder and Schedule Copilot
Describe your season in a sentence. LeagueArc builds it.
Type who's playing, which days and hours, where, and anything to avoid. AI reads it, then a scheduling engine places every game and checks every rule before you see it. Change anything by asking, and nothing is saved until you say so.
- No team plays twice at once, no rink, court, or field is double-booked, and venue hours and blackouts always hold.
- Home and away, late starts, and rematch spacing are evened out across the season.
- Show me options: three checked versions of your season, from finishes earliest to most rest between games.
- Mid-season, tell it a team dropped out or you lost ice time. Only the affected games move, and you review the change before teams are notified.
- Paste the ice or field times you booked, and every game lands inside them, with a count of how many more you need.
The Schedule Copilot comes with every paid plan. During the free 7-day setup, the step-by-step wizard builds your season with the same scheduling engine.
Men's league, Tuesdays and Thursdays 9 to 11:30 pm at Civic Arena rinks 1 and 2, from January 6, 14 games each, no games March 10 or 12.
Schedule Copilot
Here's what I read. Every game is placed inside these days, hours, and rinks, with every rule checked:
- Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9 to 11:30 pm
- Civic Arena, rinks 1 and 2
- Starting January 6, 14 games per team
- No games March 10 or 12
The Ice Hawks can't play on February 3.
Schedule Copilot
Added as a rule. Their February 3 game moved to an open slot, and the season still passes every check.

Live scoring that survives bad Wi-Fi
Score from any phone during the game. It keeps working when the gym Wi-Fi drops, and standings, stats, and your site update as you go.
-
Paper scoresheets, read for you
Snap a photo of a paper scoresheet. AI reads the stats, you approve them, and they're saved to the game. Each scan uses one AI credit: 10 a month on Starter, 50 on Pro, unlimited on Enterprise.
-
Your money, in your Stripe account
Card payments go straight to your own Stripe account, with the same 1% fee on every plan and no per-player charges.
-
A league site that updates itself
Scores, standings, and schedules flow onto your branded site and your own domain, with sponsors and registration links alongside.

Questions
Is LeagueArc always a better fit than LeagueApps?
No. LeagueApps may be the better fit if you run youth clubs, camps, or facilities and want configurable registration, reporting, and a broad integration ecosystem. LeagueArc is the stronger fit if you run an independent league and want game-day scoring, standings, and public league pages on published subscription pricing.
How much does LeagueApps cost?
Check LeagueApps's official pricing page or your current written quote, then put the subscription and payment fee into the Run the numbers section above to compare a year's cost for your league.
Can LeagueArc migrate every record from LeagueApps?
Not always. It depends on what LeagueApps lets you export. Supported files are previewed row by row before anything is created. Keep your original exports for any history that does not import.
