Welcome to the 2025 roadmap for Clutch! We’re a team of tech people with racket sports in our DNA. We’rere really excited about building the future of padel and racket sports. This is where you can get a sense of what we’re working on and the trajectory of the Clutch platform.
Our mission is to build a global community of players and clubs that are connected through content and an engaging performance tracking experience. A bit like what a company like Strava has done for runners and cyclists.
At Clutch we follow a iterative step-by-step approach to releasing features. We try to release as often as possible. Some of these features are visible to the end user through new app updates, while others are about making our infrastructure more reliable and performant.
We also like to work closely with clubs and get feedback from players to make sure that the features we build are the most impactful! Feel free to reach out to us anytime at [email protected] or send Kári from our team a WhatsApp message at +45 61666103.
Tracking winners and errors a key project for the Clutch team throughout 2025. It will create profound value for players and spawn features that will lead to better performance tracking and better community engagement - and ultimately players that want to play more and more padel.
We’re working to track the winners and errors of each individual player throughout a game. A winner is defined as when a player does the last shot in a rally and wins the point with that shot. An error is the opposite - a player does the last shot in a rally and loses the point.
The way we’ll track this is by tracking the ball trajectory and bounce location. If a ball hits the floor on the opponents’ side then it’s considered a winner. If it hits the net or the fence/walls first, then it’s considered an error.
Expected release: We’ll start by releasing tracking of winners and errors with 60-80% reliability in beta in July-August 2025. Our goal is to reach 90% accuracy by September 2025.
We’re developing a metric, The Clutch Score, that will measure players’ level every time they play. The score will be based on data such as:
