Coach intelligence the whole family can score.
Rizzler is a serious coach platform: AI lineups, pitch analytics, the works. But it's built for the coach alone, by subscription, and someone still taps the game in by hand. Bleacher Notes puts free voice scoring in every parent's pocket and turns it into plain-English reads for the coach, no manual data entry required.

Rizzler is a coach-focused, subscription coaching platform with AI lineups, positioning, and pitch analytics.
Who actually uses it
On game day, in the stands and the dugout.
Rizzler
Coaches. There's no real lane for the parent or family who just wants to follow and score the game.
Bleacher Notes
Everyone. Parents score by voice for free; coaches get the insights layered on top.
Get the game data in
Where every stat starts.
Rizzler
Manual, tap-based entry during a busy coaching workload, often split across multiple coaches.
Bleacher Notes
Parents in the stands narrate plays, so the data is already there by the time the coach wants a read.
Read the matchup
Decisions you make between batters.
Rizzler
Deep coach analytics and dashboards to interpret yourself.
Bleacher Notes
One sentence with a confidence score: who to pitch to, when to pull, who to pinch hit.
Pay for it
What it costs to get value.
Rizzler
A coach subscription unlocks the analytics; the free tier is limited to one team with basic rules.
Bleacher Notes
Parents pay nothing, ever. Coach analytics is an optional $99/year for the whole roster.
Where Rizzler is strong
Rizzler's lineup automation and pitch-workload tracking are genuinely deep, and a serious travel-ball or high-school coach who wants a dedicated planning control center will find a lot to like. Bleacher Notes takes a different bet: that the most valuable coaching data comes for free when the parents in the stands are already scoring the game, and that the coach wants an answer, not another dashboard.
Switching from Rizzler?
Does Bleacher Notes give coaches real analytics like Rizzler?
Yes, but in a different shape. Instead of dashboards to interpret, the coach tier surfaces plain-English reads with confidence scores, pitcher fatigue, matchup advantages, pinch-hit suggestions, sized for one glance between batters. The underlying data comes from the at-bats parents are already scoring.
Do parents need to pay like they do for Rizzler's coach tier?
No. Voice scoring and season stats are free for every parent, forever. Only the optional coach analytics tier is paid, at $99/year for a coach's whole roster, or $49/year for a single player.
Is the lineup tool free?
Yes. Our fair playing time lineup generator is free and needs no signup. You can try it before you ever create an account.
