In their own words
Kombat Evolve
Kombat Evolve is an academy management app for BJJ and other martial arts schools. It brings together student and role management, class planning, attendance, belt progress, and payments. Members can book recurring classes from a live schedule with capacity limits and attendance visibility; QR or tablet-kiosk check-ins log sessions. Coaches can receive an alert when a student's attendance drops by half, while belt timelines, stripes, and mat-time tracking show progress.
Student tools include a searchable belt-based technique library, branded booking calendar, and online store for subscriptions, passes, and merchandise. Owners and coaches also get multi-location support, revenue analytics, CRM, a website builder, legal documents, and e-signatures. Payments include recurring memberships, drop-in passes, and SEPA, with Stripe and Klarna listed. Plans start at €59 a month, with VAT not included; a 14-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. The listed platforms are Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows.
