Everything stays in your browser. Nothing is uploaded or saved.
Bracket
Type the names and press "Create bracket".
Entrants marked with = are level on every criterion: the order of your list decides between them.
Type the score in the boxes. If the score is level or there was a walkover, tap the name of who goes through.
The bracket shows who went through. The clip shows the match point.
VISU Replay puts cameras on the court: the matches are recorded on their own and the players get short clips of their plays in the VISU app. A tournament day ends with the bracket and the best points in the same group. If your court does not have it yet, send the Replay page to the owner.
See VISU ReplayHow to use it
- Type the players, pairs or teams, one per line, or paste the list from the group chat.
- Pick the format: knockout, round robin, or groups followed by a knockout. Choose a seeded draw (list order) or a random one.
- Press "Create bracket". Type the scores as the matches end: winners advance and the group tables update by themselves.
- Send the link or the image to the group, or print the wall sheet for the club. After the next match, update and share again.
Examples
11 pairs, single elimination
The bracket has 16 places, so the top 5 pairs of your list get a bye and the other 6 play the first round. Third-place match optional.
8 players, two groups and semifinals
Two groups of 4 play a round robin; the top two of each cross over in the semifinals: first of A against second of B, and the other way round.
5 teams, everyone against everyone
Round robin: 5 rounds with one team resting in each, 10 matches, and a table sorted by points, wins and difference.
Questions
What happens when the number of entrants is not 4, 8, 16 or 32?
The bracket grows to the next of those sizes and the empty places become byes. Byes go to the first names of your list (or to random entrants in a random draw), never two in the same match, and whoever has a bye is already in the next round.
How does seeding work?
In "seeded in list order" the first name is seed 1, the second is seed 2, and so on. Seeds 1 and 2 are placed in opposite halves and can only meet in the final. In a random draw the order is shuffled and the seed of the draw is shown, so nobody suspects a second attempt.
How are the groups decided?
By points first (3 for a win, 1 for a draw, editable), then wins, then score difference, then points scored. Entrants level on everything are flagged and keep the order of your list.
Who plays whom after the groups?
Group winners are seeded first. With two per group, the first of one group meets the second of another in the first knockout round, never someone from its own group.
Can I fix a score I typed wrong?
Yes. Change it and the bracket is recalculated. If the correction changes who advanced, the later matches of that path are cleared, because they were played by someone else on paper.
What does the link contain?
The tournament name, the names you typed and the scores, written into the link itself (the part after #). Nothing is stored on a server. Anyone with the link can read those names, so share it with the people who are playing.
