SetPoint is the connected network for racquet sports. Your players, games, and rivals in one place that follows you across cities, sports, and clubs. My cofounder Rob played juniors tennis, high school, D1 at Brown, then pickleball and padel in Boston and now NYC. Every move reset his network. SetPoint reconnects it. Cross-sport by design, not pickleball-only or tennis-only. Network-first, not booking-first like CourtReserve or Playtomic. Built for players who actually play.
Hi PH! Joe here, ultramarathoner and cofounder.
I've spent the last few years running 100-mile races. What surprised me wasn't the distance or the self-doubt — it was the strength of the community that carries you through it. Strava started as a way to track runs: distance, time, speed. But it turned into the network of friends who know me as a runner. I'd show up at races and bump into people I'd been silently staying in touch with for a year through kudos. The connection was always there, even when we weren't.
Rob is my close friend and grew up in racquet sports: juniors tennis, high school, D1 at Brown, and now pickleball and padel post-grad. 20+ years of teammates and opponents, and he's only managed to stay in touch with a handful. The doubles partner from juniors, the teammate now pro in pickleball, the Boston padel crew are all scattered. No way to see who still plays, where they live now, who'd actually be down for a good game. We kept asking: why doesn't something like Strava exist for racquet sports?
So I called my brother James, who's a builder (and a hacker on occasion) and the three of us have been building it together since.
If you've ever scrolled Instagram looking up old teammates to see if they still play, spammed a group chat hoping someone's free Saturday morning, or taken a chance on the weird guy at the club who keeps asking to hit — help us build something better. I seriously value this community's feedback so share what you like, love, or... hate it all helps us improve.
Very cool. Thrilled for this to hopefully take off...would love to be playing more pickleball and tennis but usually what stops me is logistics! Same for my mom and her group of pickleball friends I know
@kekua01 We’re working on an AI agent that will handle logistics entirely. I think you’ll really like it! Many users have mentioned logistics being a big pain point and ending the frustration so players can play is a major goal of ours.
@kekua01 agreed Coby, coordination is tough and that’s what we are trying to solve
I love playing pickleball but hate the sprawling group chats and getting ghosted when nobody wants to play. SetPoint is perfect for the casual player who wants to get a game in, keep the memory, and save any of the hassle!
@neal_singal1 Thanks for the feedback, Neal, let us know if you ever want to get a game in!
@neal_singal1 Thanks! So much easier to get into a game this way.
super cool - excited to try (D3 college tennis player, worse now)
@benhorwitz let’s go!! We should play sometime. Look forward to your feedback
@benhorwitz Thanks for being here, Ben! Looking forward to seeing your first post :)
As a casual player, I used to find it intimidating to go to a public court alone. We’ve put a ton of work recently into improving our player discovery so your friends are easy to find and follow. You’d be surprised how many already are playing in your city and you just never knew!
I am super excited, as a 20+ year tennis player and racquet sports lifer, to share this product with the community. We can't wait to introduce more folks to these amazing sports, and get other existing avid players more connected.
SetPoint is the racquet sports network that travels with you. Looking forward to all feedback and would love to find out how you are using SetPoint!
Finding people to play with and scheduling with them has by far been my biggest blocker to getting into racquet sports. Looking forward to trying out SetPoint!
