Run your weekly match
on autopilot.
MatchTime reads your WhatsApp group, understands who's playing, balances teams, chases replacements, and handles ratings — so you stop refereeing the group chat.
The boring admin, done for you.
Every weekly-match organiser knows the pain: chasing names, rebalancing teams, collecting money, nagging late replies, arguing over who's on the bench. MatchTime reads the chat, understands it, and handles the whole cycle — in the same group you already use.
AI reads the group chat
Claude understands every message — not just 'IN' or 'OUT'. Excuses, conditional commitments, replacement requests and questions all get classified and handled correctly.
Zero-friction attendance
Players reply naturally in WhatsApp. The bot logs them, reacts with their slot number, and answers 'do we have enough?' questions instantly.
Auto-balanced teams
Elo from real match results + per-position composition + peer ratings. Snake-draft seed, hill-climb refine. Posted on match-day morning.
Ratings & Man of the Match
One-tap magic-link DMs collect 1–10 ratings + MoM picks. Votes merge from WhatsApp polls + in-app. Winner announced 5 days later.
Smart bench + replacement chase
Someone drops, the bot asks the group — and chases again at the right times: match morning, 3 h before, 2 h pre-kickoff. Stops the moment you're full.
Payment polls
Tick to pay. Posted after every game, tracked in the admin dashboard. No more 'who didn't pay last week' detective work.
Short-week safety net
Low numbers? The bot DMs admins the day before with a one-tap switch to a smaller format, or a cancellation if you're below the minimum. No phone-call chains.
Magic-link sign-in
Players never create accounts or remember passwords. Every link the bot DMs signs them in automatically for 5 days.
Multi-group, multi-admin
Run Tuesday 7-a-side AND Thursday basketball from the same dashboard. Add or remove admins; everyone gets chase DMs.
Elo rating that self-calibrates
Every recorded score updates each player's rating. Margin of victory counts. Over a season the team-balancer actually gets smarter.
Time-smart reminders
Daily roll-call at 17:00. Pre-kickoff at T−2 h. Football? Bot reminds the group to bring goalie gloves and a ball. No mental load for you.
Any sport, any format
Football 5/7/11-a-side, futsal, basketball 5v5 or 3v3, netball, volleyball, cricket — or roll your own custom sport with positions and team size.
Stats that make players
actually show up.
Every rating and result becomes a season your players care about. They open one link — no app, no login — and see how they're really doing, week by week. Bragging rights drive turnout.
- Their rating over time, plotted against the whole squad
- A live leaderboard with weekly ↑↓ movement

Season “Wrapped” card
A Spotify-Wrapped-style recap players screenshot straight into the group.
Your group's match-day brain, on call.
Players just ask — DM the bot, or tag it in the group — about the next match, who's playing, their own stats, the leaderboard. They get a friendly answer back in seconds.
- Answered privately by DM, so the group chat stays clean.
- Locked to your group's matches — it can't reveal phone numbers, other people's data, or anything off-topic.
Three steps to autopilot.
Set it up once, play every week. MatchTime takes care of the rest.
- 1
Create your group
Pick a sport preset (football 7-a-side, basketball 5v5, or custom). Set your venue, day, time and squad size. Takes under five minutes.
- 2
Add the bot to WhatsApp
Invite MatchTime's number to your group. It auto-onboards every member, reads the chat every 10 minutes and starts handling attendance, questions and drops.
- 3
Play & rate
On match day the bot posts balanced teams, asks for the score, DMs rating links, tallies MoM votes — and does it all again next week.
Built for the admin, invisible to the player.
Players never have to download anything. Admins get a full dashboard — override positions, seed ratings, switch formats, see every rating ever given. The bot sits in the middle doing the tedious bit.
If you play every week, this is for you.
- No more counting ‘IN’ messages or chasing late replies
- One tap to drop to a smaller format when numbers are short
- Automatic balanced teams instead of arguing over drafts
- Every attendance, rating and payment auto-logged
- Chat naturally in WhatsApp — ‘IN’, ‘count me in’, ‘sorry not tonight’, the bot gets it.
- Balanced teams every match, no favouritism
- A full season of stats: rating timeline, form, chemistry, rivalries & badges
- A live leaderboard, Team of the Season & a shareable season card
- Ask the bot anything about your matches — by DM or in the group
