Trusted by 47+ BJJ academies

Why BJJ Academies Need Specialized Software

Generic gym platforms don't understand BJJ. They can't tell the difference between a gi fundamentals class and a no-gi open mat. They have no concept of belt stripes, lineage trees, or competition weight divisions. Your academy deserves BJJ academy software built by people who train.

Tracking belt promotions in spreadsheets

Built-in belt & stripe progression with custom criteria

No distinction between gi and no-gi classes

Separate scheduling and attendance per class type

Managing comp teams via group chat

Centralized competition roster and result tracking

Seminar management with sign-ups, payments, and attendance

Features Built for BJJ Academies

Every feature in House of Grapplers was designed for jiu-jitsu school management. Belt tracking, gi vs no-gi attendance, competition teams, and more. Nothing generic. Nothing borrowed from a fitness platform.

Belt & Stripe Progression

Track every student from white to black belt — including stripes. Set promotion criteria based on attendance, mat time, competition record, and instructor approval.

Gi vs No-Gi Scheduling

Build schedules that reflect how BJJ academies run. Separate gi, no-gi, open mat, competition prep, fundamentals, and advanced classes. Students filter by type.

QR & Kiosk Check-in

Students scan in under 2 seconds. Attendance auto-logs by class type — gi, no-gi, open mat, private. Feeds directly into belt promotion criteria.

Competition Team Management

Manage your comp team roster. Track tournament registrations, bracket results, medal counts by belt and weight division. Know who needs to register.

Billing & Mat Fees

Automated recurring billing, drop-in mat fees, seminar payments, and family discounts. Stripe-powered. Students can pay before they step on the mat.

Retention AI

Our AI flags at-risk students 3 weeks before they ghost. Know when a white belt's attendance drops below their average — the most common quit window.

Lineage & Affiliation

Map your academy's BJJ lineage tree. Track instructor certifications, belt origins, and affiliation relationships. Show your lineage on your public profile.

Seminars & Guest Instructors

Coordinate seminars and visiting black belts. Manage sign-ups, collect payments, track attendance, and share post-seminar recaps — all in one place.

BJJ Software vs Generic Gym Platforms

Generic gym platforms handle billing and scheduling. But BJJ gym management software needs to understand belts, stripes, lineage, and the mat.

Trusted by BJJ Academies

Belt tracking alone was worth the switch. My students can see exactly where they stand and what they need for promotion. No more guesswork.

Professor Lucas Mendes

Alliance South Bay · San Diego, CA

We run gi, no-gi, and competition classes. House of Grapplers is the first software that actually tracks them separately. Game changer for promotion decisions.

Coach Sarah Kim

Grapple Lab · Austin, TX

The retention AI caught 3 students about to quit last month. We reached out and kept all 3. That alone pays for the software ten times over.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best software for managing a BJJ academy?

The best BJJ gym software is purpose-built for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu — not adapted from CrossFit or yoga platforms. House of Grapplers includes belt and stripe tracking, gi vs no-gi scheduling, competition team management, lineage mapping, and seminar coordination. Every feature was designed for how BJJ academies actually operate.

How does House of Grapplers track BJJ belt promotions?

House of Grapplers tracks every belt level from white to black (including coral and red), plus individual stripes. You set custom promotion criteria per belt — based on attendance count, time-in-rank, competition results, technique assessments, and instructor approval. When a student meets the criteria, you get a notification.

Can I track gi and no-gi attendance separately?

Yes. Every class in House of Grapplers has a type: gi, no-gi, open mat, competition prep, fundamentals, or custom. Attendance is tracked per class type, so you can see exactly how often each student trains gi vs no-gi — and use that data for promotion decisions.

How much does BJJ academy software cost?

House of Grapplers offers a free tier for academies with up to 25 members — no credit card required. Pro plans start at $29/month. The first 200 academies get lifetime founder pricing at $19/month. There are no hidden fees, setup costs, or long-term contracts.

Does it work for academies that teach multiple disciplines?

Absolutely. While House of Grapplers was built for BJJ, it supports any grappling discipline — wrestling, judo, submission grappling, and MMA. You can create separate class types, belt systems, and schedules for each discipline while managing everything from a single dashboard.

Can I manage seminars and visiting instructors?

Yes. House of Grapplers includes built-in seminar management. Create seminar events, collect pre-payments, manage sign-ups with capacity limits, track attendance, and coordinate with guest instructors — including through the Gig Marketplace where you can find and book visiting black belts.
