A Mac app that reads rider number plates in race clips, matches them to a start list, and sorts the footage into team and rider folders.

For
Mountain bike race filmers and teams
Worth noticing
Uncertain plate reads are routed to a “Needs a human” queue rather than silently assigned.

Field notes

The workflow uses sampled frames and a start-list match, with uncertain reads separated for human review. The sample library shows rider and team assignments, while listed monthly allowances range from 1,000 clips on Basic to unlimited on Super; the homepage also names Apple Silicon and macOS 11 or later as requirements.
