A free BJJ progress tracker
I’ve been training BJJ for a while now, and I’ve been pretty terrible about tracking my mat time.
I have a composition book filled with notes diligently scribbled after watching videos, participating in seminars, observing lessons while injured, etc. But the gaps between entries is measured in months.
It’s embarrassing tbh and it’s holding back my progress.
I wanted a minimalist app that I could easily update in the car after a training session, without bogging me down in bs.
What it does
BJJ Tracker is a free web app for logging your training. No accounts to manage. No passwords to remember. Just enter your email and you’re in via magic link.
Here’s what it includes:
- Session logging — tap the + button after class and log your session type (gi, no-gi, open mat, etc.), intensity level, mat hours, techniques covered, and rolling notes. Takes 15 seconds.
- Technique library — searchable reference of 50+ BJJ techniques organized by category. You can pin the moves you’re currently drilling to your dashboard so they’re top of mind.
- Analytics — see total mat hours, monthly breakdown, weekly consistency chart, and other nudges to ask: are you showing up?
- Cross-device sync — log a session on your laptop, see it on your phone, everything syncs through the cloud.
- iPhone — add it to your home screen from Safari and it runs like a native app.
- Privacy — completely private. Each user’s data is isolated at the database level. I can’t see your email address. I can’t see your sessions. You can’t see anyone else’s. There’s no tracking. No analytics on users. No ads. It’s what I want and what we all deserve.
Try it
Enter your email, click the magic link, and start logging.
It’s free and it’s open source.
The code is on GitHub if you want to look under the hood.
