Automaton Clubs

Your club already organises in a group chat. Automaton Clubs makes the chat do the admin: fixtures, RSVPs, waitlists, reminders and standings — without forty scrolled-past replies.

WHAT IT DOES

The moving parts

Runs a real darts team and a real dominoes club every week. The second club took one day to deploy.

Tap-to-RSVP cards

A card in the group with Join, Maybe and Out buttons that updates in place — the conversation stays a conversation.

Automatic waitlists

Capped games fill in order; when someone drops out, the first person waiting is promoted automatically and told so.

Reminders that never double-ping

Day-before and starting-soon nudges, deduplicated by a database constraint — a re-run cannot spam the group.

Personal calendar feeds

Every member gets an iCalendar URL for Google or Apple Calendar. Fixtures appear on their own calendar, automatically.

Admin-gated membership

Join requests queue for an admin decision — and admins are nudged until they deal with them.

League scoring

Seasons, results and standings, validated so recorded games and the table always reconcile.

A conversation costs nothing, and it often ends with us saying automation is not worth it for a given job. That is a useful answer too.
