One thread for the whole program.
Team-wide, position groups, departments and DMs, with the fast, familiar feel of the messaging apps your roster already uses. A fresh chat redesign is in progress.
- Whole-team and group channels
- Read receipts for announcements
- Files and film links in context
Know who’s here before the whistle.
One tap: I’m here, Running late, or Can’t make it. Staff get a live check-in board that shows status only. Live location is opt-in, time-limited and has a big Stop button.
- Three-tap status for every event
- A live board for staff, status only
- Location sharing ends on its own
- Coaches see status, never coordinates

Safe by default.
Especially for minors.
Youth and school teams need more than a group chat. XCypher is designed so the safe choice is the default choice.
