Craggle
Now in beta — free year of Craggle Premium for early climbers

Start a session.
Bring whoever’s around.

Craggle is built around the climbing session, not the send list. Start one when you get to the gym, let tonight’s crew join with a code, and everyone gets tracked — including the friend who doesn’t have the app.

No account needed to start climbing

Ten people in the group chat.
Three of you actually made it.

That’s the real shape of climbing with friends. Same night, same gym, a different two or three or four people every week.

Most climbing apps make you pick one of two things: log alone, or set up a “group” and keep it accurate forever. Neither one is what an “every other Tuesday” climbing group is like.

Craggle has nothing to maintain.

Your crew is just your list of people. The session is whoever walked in tonight — and next week it can be someone else entirely.

Crew is who you know. The session is who showed up.

The session is the unit

One person starts it.
Everyone else just turns up.

Nobody has to organise anything in advance. Whoever gets there first starts the session. Everyone else joins in about four seconds.

And the one who doesn’t have Craggle

A name is enough. Add an email and they get the session summary afterwards.

No accounts required to climb. No group to set up. Nothing to keep tidy between Tuesdays.

Data that holds up

Irregular doesn’t mean incomplete.

Your group changes week to week, and so does your schedule. Neither one degrades what Craggle knows about your climbing.

Every session is scored on its own terms — what actually happened that night, never how it measures against a run you were supposed to keep up. Miss three Tuesdays and turn up on the fourth, and that fourth night is complete: every attempt, the full scoring, the whole picture, exactly as complete as it would have been if you’d made all four.

Craggle measures what you climbed, not how reliably you turn up.

There’s no streak to break, nothing greys out after a quiet month, and no part of your history is worth less because the gaps in it are real. You can only climb the nights you can climb. Those nights should still be worth something.

Session leaderboard

Three ways to win the night.

Your Tuesday group is not all climbing the same grade, and a leaderboard that only counts hardest-send makes that awkward. So Craggle scores every session three ways.

Tops
What you sent
Clean climbs, weighted by difficulty.
Grit
What it cost you
Time on the wall and effort spent — the projecting nobody else counts.
Range
How much you covered
Volume and spread across the routes you touched.

The V2 climber and the V6 climber both have a reason to care about the same scoreboard.

It works climbing alone, too — the same three numbers, comparable session to session.

Inside a session

Every attempt, not just the ones that worked.

A send list tells you what went well. Craggle keeps the rest of the two hours too.

Attempts, not just sends
Craggle asks how many attempts it took and whether it was clean — no resets, no full-weight rests. The try counts even when the send doesn’t come.
Time actually on the wall
Session time and wall time are different numbers, and only one of them is training. Craggle keeps both.
Climb Intensity Score
Effort scoring from time on wall, difficulty, and heart rate — a training-load number, not a grade-chasing one.
Projects across sessions
The V6 you’ve been chipping at for a month stays one thread, with the attempt count growing session over session.
Routes where they live
At a gym with a floorplan loaded, pick your route by tapping the spot on the wall it’s actually on.
Notes while it’s fresh
The beta that finally clicked, the hold you couldn’t hit. Written down at the gym, not remembered wrong on Thursday.

Complete Attempt

Two questions, and it’s logged.

How many goes, and was it clean. That’s the whole interaction — fast enough to do between burns, honest enough that the effort shows up in your numbers even when the send doesn’t.

Wearing an Apple Watch? Start and finish the climb from your wrist instead, and heart rate, altitude, and calories come across from HealthKit on their own. The session itself lives on your phone.

Guest climbers

Someone brought a friend.

Add them with a name. They show up in the session like anyone else — their climbs, their attempts, their spot on the leaderboard. Anyone in the session can log for them.

Add an email too, and when the session ends they get their own summary — what they climbed, how they did — without ever installing anything.

Party of one?
Perfect.

Everything in Craggle works great even when it’s just you.

A solo session is a session with one climber in it. Nothing switches into a stripped-down mode, nothing greys out, and no feature is waiting on a second person before it turns on.

The same three scores, computed exactly the same way. Which makes last Wednesday’s directly comparable — the only climber on the board is you, session after session.

Wall time

Most climbing apps start with one climber and add the group later.

Craggle started with the session — which turns out to be how you get a better solo tracker.

Attempts and clean climbs. Time on the wall against time at the gym. Intensity and load. Projects that keep counting across months. Route notes while they’re fresh, and the watch app on your wrist. None of it needed anyone else to be there.

Where Craggle is right now

Small, in beta, and built by people who climb on Tuesdays.

We’re a young app out of Minneapolis. Everything on this page ships today — we’d rather show you a short honest list than a long one you’ll find holes in. If something’s missing that your group needs, tell us; right now that’s genuinely how the roadmap gets set.

For gyms

Your routes, your floorplan, your climbers.

Load your routes and floorplans into Craggle and your members pick climbs by tapping the wall they’re standing in front of. You get to see which routes are actually being worked — and a way to message the people climbing them.

What gyms get today
  • Route management with images and in-image setter notes
  • Floorplan uploads with per-route markers
  • Which routes get climbed, worked, and sent
  • Message members and recent climbers in-app

See you at the gym.

(even if it’s not a Tuesday)
