MakeTheBoard is an online leaderboard maker and live scoreboard tool for creating and sharing ranking displays, scoreboards, goal trackers, and fundraising thermometers in a web browser. It is designed for use cases such as classrooms, sales contests, sports, quiz nights, tournaments, and fundraising campaigns, where scores or progress need to be updated and viewed in real time.
How many people can update the scoreboard at the same time without it getting glitchy, and is there a way to restrict editing so only certain folks can change scores during a live event?
How does the real-time updating actually work? Like if I'm running a live quiz night, do players just refresh their phones or is there a shareable link that pushes updates without needing a reload?
How does the live updating actually work when you share a board - do viewers just refresh, or does it push updates automatically? And is there a limit on how many simultaneous scoreboards you can run on the free plan?
The split between edit mode and live view is so clean. Updating scores without disturbing what's already on screen is exactly the kind of small UX choice that makes this feel built by people who actually run scoreboards.
Would love to see a way to embed the live scoreboard directly into Google Slides or PowerPoint so I can show classroom rankings without flipping tabs during the lesson.
Super easy to spin up a live scoreboard for our office quiz night and the updates showed up on the TV instantly. Wish I had found this sooner for past tournaments.
Made a quick scoreboard for our team quiz night and the live updates worked smoothly without any setup headaches, which is rare for these kinds of tools.
