GameTree vs Toornament

GameTree is a teammate-finding platform and Discord bot for organizing gaming sessions. Its matching system considers players’ game preferences, playstyle, communication style, values, and personality. Through Scout, users can create live, scheduled, or recurring LFG sessions, with automatic reminders for scheduled play. Scout can open private voice and text channels for a group and remove the channels, posts, and invites when a session ends. Sessions can include players from Scout-enabled servers; server owners can filter or disable cross-server traffic. The bot runs in Discord and supports commands such as /lfg and /sessions. Guests can use Scout without a GameTree account, while personality matching and Steam friend syncing require a free account. GameTree says Scout does not read or store messages in channels where it is not invoked, and says it does not sell or give away personally identifiable or contact information. Its privacy policy also says service data may be used for research and to improve matchmaking and recommendation models. GameTree has Android, iOS, and web platforms; its core LFG features are free.

Toornament is a web and API platform for creating, running, sharing and joining tournaments. Its organizer lineup includes Free, Boost, Community, Circuit and Arena. Free supports up to 32 participants across games and competition formats; Boost is a single payment of 19.00 EUR for one tournament with up to 4096 participants. Circuit is aimed at large competitions, with circuit management, customization and leaderboards. Arena adds custom publishing tools, API access and a dedicated website. Participants can check tournaments and matches, check in, then report scores with screenshots and notes. The API covers tournament setup, registrations, participants, custom fields and match locations. Calls require an API key, and private data also requires OAuth 2 authorization with scopes; an API application can access only tournaments from its own project. Community and higher plans offer paid registrations through PayPal, with no share or fee taken by Toornament. The responsive participant site works on desktop and mobile. The Brawl Stars integration can automate lobbies and results for teams with at least three members.
