The platform, by job

One race record. The jobs that keep your event moving.

PodiumBase connects the athlete journey, the organizer console, and the photographer plan around the same event. Start with the job that is costing you the most time.

See the product

The workflow should be easy to see.

These product views are captured from public PodiumBase demo routes, so you can see the athlete experience instead of taking a feature list on faith. The planning views below are clearly marked illustrations, not customer data.

Results, coverage, retention

Make the race useful after the finish.

These are distinct product surfaces, with clear boundaries: public race pages use verified results, coverage tools help organizers coordinate photographers, and an opt-in Runner Passport gives athletes a durable race history.

Finish-time analysis

When results are available, athletes can see median and percentile finish times, field distribution, and where a goal time would land.

FAQ

Questions race directors ask.

Do I need every feature to start?

No. The activation is designed to begin with one event and the smallest useful set of capabilities. External registration, photo coverage, and the organizer workflow can be evaluated before expanding.

What do athletes actually see?

They get one event page where they can find photos by bib or selfie, see race information, register when native registration is enabled, and receive a link when their photos are ready.

Where can I learn about selfie matching and privacy?

See the public Trust and Safety page and the biometric FAQ for the athlete-facing explanation of selfie matching, consent, and deletion.

Ready when you are

Pick one upcoming event and make the workflow visible.

We will help you decide which capabilities belong in the first activation and which can wait until the event proves itself.
