Our Story

The team behind the score.

RingScore started at a folding table beside the ring. It became a scoring platform because the people building it had already felt the cost of slow results, manual tallying, and unclear records.

The Founders

Built by people who have been inside the sport.

The founder story matters because RingScore is not an abstract SaaS product. It was shaped by live events, athletes, officials, and the operational pressure around a final decision.

Founder & CEO

Saffat Aziz

Operator, builder, martial artist, and the person who ran the first ten RingScore events from setup to final results.

Between rounds

Saffat built the first version of RingScore alone and operated it himself at live boxing events: configuring devices, supporting judges, monitoring scorecards, and tallying results ringside.

That early version proved the problem was not theoretical. Paper scoring created delays, preventable errors, and weak auditability at the exact moment organizers needed confidence.

A serial entrepreneur and Senior AI Consultant at PwC, Saffat has trained in martial arts for over 15 years and competed in both boxing and Muay Thai. That time inside the ropes shapes how RingScore is built.

Why We Built This

Paper scorecards were holding the sport back.

Judges wrote scores by hand. Tallying was manual. Results moved by paper from ringside to officials before they could be announced. When errors happened, the record was hard to inspect and even harder to explain.

RingScore replaces that handoff with validated digital scoring, live supervisor visibility, offline-safe submission, and a permanent event record. The goal is simple: make the official result faster, clearer, and more defensible.

The Architecture

Engineered for the pressure of the ring.

Live event software has to assume stress: spotty Wi-Fi, budget devices, time pressure, and results that become official fast.

Offline-first scoring

Scores are written to the judge device first, then synced in order when venue connectivity returns.

Sub-second oversight

Submitted rounds reach the supervisor and organizer views quickly enough to support live event decisions.

Scoring rule enforcement

The 10-point must system and invalid score combinations are constrained before a round can be submitted.

Full audit trail

Scores, corrections, stoppages, deductions, and submission status are preserved for post-event review.

What We Stand For

Championship-grade values.

Accuracy above all

A wrong score can change a career. RingScore treats every scorecard as part of the official record from the moment a judge submits it.

Resilience by default

Venue networks fail. Devices vary. Events keep moving. The product is built for those conditions, not ideal lab conditions.

Transparency under pressure

When a result is questioned, the system should show who submitted what, when it changed, and why.

Respect for the sport

The rules, traditions, and officials define the requirements. RingScore modernizes the workflow without pretending the sport needs to become software.

Ready to Work Together

Bring RingScore to your event.

Whether you run a local amateur card or a commission-level event, RingScore is built to make the official scoring record easier to trust.
