MarX.dance + MarX

Let organizers host. Let judges judge. Let dancers dance. MarX takes care of the rest.

MarX.dance and MarX handle registration, check-in, start numbers, the timetable, scoring and the screens — so a competition day flows from the first heat to the final diploma.

You know how competition day usually goes.

Registration in a spreadsheet three people are editing at once. A stack of printed start lists that's already out of date. A judging table buried in paper. Dancers and parents pressed against the results board asking the same question — “when do we dance?” — that nobody can answer, because the schedule slipped an hour ago and no one's been told.

None of that is the competition. It's the friction around it — and everyone feels it. The organizer who hasn't sat down since 7am. The scrutineer quietly praying the marks add up. The dancer too anxious about logistics to enjoy the floor.

It doesn't have to be like that.

Three people, one great day

A competition only works when three very different people all have a good day. MarX.dance and MarX are built around all three.

Organizers

You're the one everyone comes to. Registrations, payments, no-shows, last-minute changes, reprinting lists, chasing the schedule, fixing what breaks — all while trying to look like everything's under control.

  • Online registration that fills your start lists for you — no re-typing, no version chaos.
  • Online check-in, so you know who's actually in the building before the first round.
  • Self-service start number printing — dancers print their own; you don't run a print shop.
  • A live timetable that shows delays the moment they happen, so you're never guessing how far behind you are — and neither is anyone else.
  • On-the-spot fixes for when reality doesn't match the plan.

For the first time, you get to actually be at your own event.

Scrutineers & adjudicators

You're responsible for getting it right — every score, every recall, every ranking — usually buried in paper, under time pressure, while people wait. And the second something unexpected happens, the stress spikes.

  • Fully digital judging and scrutineering — MarX does the calculations, you keep control.
  • Separate adjudicator panels per round, and the ability to replace an adjudicator mid-round without unpicking everything.
  • Add a participant during a round — and keep every decision already made.
  • Reshuffle heats on the fly while preserving the marks already entered.
  • Smart WDSF results upload and WDSF star-eligibility built in — the official work, minus the drudgery.
  • Any format handled: Skating, S-AJS, AJS24, per-dance disqualifications, General Look and Show rounds.

You stay calm and in control even when the day doesn't go to plan — because the software was built for the day not going to plan.

Dancers & parents

Half the stress of a competition happens off the floor. When do I dance? Which heat? Which floor? Did I make the final? You end up glued to a printed sheet or a crowded board instead of warming up.

  • Your timetable, in your pocket — with live delay tracking, so you know your real dance time, not the one printed this morning.
  • Your heats and start number, always current.
  • Results the instant they're final — no crowding the board.
  • A diploma to take home, printed and personal.

You spend competition day being a dancer. Nothing else.

The paperless competition

One app. Every screen. No paper.

MarX-mobile isn't one app doing one thing — it's every role the competition needs, in one place. The same live data drives every screen in the room, so the judge, the MC, the big display and the dancer in the warm-up corner are always looking at the same truth.

Timetable + live delays
The running order everyone shares, updating in real time as the day flexes.
Instant results
Final rankings the moment they're locked, for dancers and MC alike.
Heat assignments
Who's dancing, when, on which floor.
MC mode
The announcer always knows who's up, who won, and what's next.
LED screen
Heats and results on the wall, in the hall.
Broadcast screen
A clean, TV-ready output for live streams and productions — from a competitor's phone to a television broadcast.

From a competitor's phone to a television broadcast, it's all the same system.

When things go wrong

Real competitions are messy. MarX is built for the mess.

Anyone can build software for the competition that goes perfectly. Those don't exist. The real test of a system is the moment something breaks — and that's exactly where MarX is strongest.

  • A couple arrives late and has to be added — after the round has already started. Add them, and keep every mark already given.
  • A judge has to step out. Replace them for the current round without dismantling the panel.
  • The heats need to change mid-flow. Reshuffle them while every decision so far stays intact.
  • It's a single-dance event. Or a team match. Or a format nobody else supports cleanly. MarX handles it.
  • The venue wifi dies. MarX keeps running — it works offline by design.

The best moment to trust your software is your worst moment on the day. That's when MarX earns it.

Built to be trusted

The unglamorous engineering that means it just works.

You'll never see most of the work that goes into MarX — and that's the point. It's the quiet reliability underneath that lets you forget the software is even there.

Works offline
No dependence on venue internet. The app is served locally and installs in seconds with a QR code — even in a sports hall with no signal.
Never loses a score
Robust real-time sync keeps every device in agreement and resolves conflicts automatically, so nothing goes missing when the network hiccups.
Fast, even when it's packed
Tuned to stay quick and stable through the busiest rounds of the biggest events — no crashes when it matters most.
WDSF-ready
Direct integration with WDSF for results and star eligibility, kept current with the rules.
Multi-floor, multi-hall
Run parallel floors and send sheets from anywhere in the venue.
Always improving
MarX ships real, frequent updates — driven by the people who actually run competitions.

You shouldn't have to think about your competition software. That's the whole idea.

Everything you need to run a competition

  • Online registration — Your start lists fill themselves.
  • Online check-in — Know who's really in the room.
  • Self-service start numbers — Dancers print their own dorsals.
  • Live timetable — Everyone sees the real schedule, in real time.
  • Instant results — No more crowding the board.
  • Custom diplomas — Every dancer leaves with something to keep.
  • Offline-first — Works when the venue wifi doesn't.
  • Mid-round fixes — Add a dancer or swap a judge without starting over.
  • WDSF integration — The official work, one click.
  • LED & broadcast screens — From the hall wall to the TV feed.
  • Multi-floor support — Two floors, one competition, one system.
  • Single-dance & team matches — The formats others can't handle cleanly.

The full loop

One system, from “found your event” to “framed the diploma.”

MarX.dance and MarX are two halves of the same story.

MarX.dance

Where it starts — your competition on the calendar, open registration, online payment, check-in. The front door dancers walk through.

MarX

Where it happens — scrutineering, the mobile app, the screens, the results. Everything that runs the event on the day.

Because they're one system, nothing is re-typed, nothing is exported and re-imported, nothing falls through the gap between sign-up and show time. A dancer who registers on MarX.dance is already in your start list, already checked in, already on the timetable, already in the results. One flow, end to end.

Every discipline

One system, every dance discipline

marX doesn't assume a discipline. Categories, age groups, classes, judging panels and the scoring system are configured per competition — so the same platform runs a dancesport championship on Saturday and a breaking battle on Sunday.

Ballroom & dancesport

Standard and Latin, ten dance, single-dance events and team matches — with WDSF integration and Skating-rule scrutineering.

Hip-hop & street dance

Solos, duos, formations and crews across a lot of categories — checked in and numbered without a queue at the door.

Breaking

B-boys, b-girls and crews — online entry, qualifiers judged by panel, and the screens the crowd is watching.

Stage & show dance

Jazz, modern, show dance and formations — long start lists, big teams, music files and all.
