Early access
Use ThoroughTrack in your yard before it reaches the App Store or Google Play. Pilot builds will be installed through Apple TestFlight and Google Play internal testing.
Invitation only · Ireland & UK
Join the ThoroughTrack pilot
We’re inviting a small number of racing yards to use ThoroughTrack in real morning work before it reaches the app stores — and to tell us plainly what works, what doesn’t and what’s missing.
Who it’s for
Working yards, not test benches
The pilot is for licensed trainers and racing yards in Ireland and the UK who are willing to put
a pre-release app into the daily routine.
- You train racehorses in Ireland or the UK, with horses in work every morning.
- Records are scattered today — notebooks, whiteboards, spreadsheets, WhatsApp, or someone’s memory.
- Your team carries phones — iPhone or Android — and you’re happy for them to log work between lots.
- You’ll tell us what you think, including when it isn’t good enough yet.
The arrangement
What you get, what we ask
A pilot only works if it’s useful to both sides.
Pilot yards get
A direct line to the builder
Your feedback goes straight to the person writing the app — no ticket queue, no account manager in between.
A hand in the roadmap
Pilot yards help decide what gets finished first and how it should work on a busy morning.
Help bringing records across
We plan to help pilot yards import existing horse records from a CSV export, using a secure, encrypted process. It’s a hands-on service, not a button you press.
In return, we ask you to
Use it in real morning work
Log first lot, second lot and the health checks between them in ThoroughTrack — not in a test yard, in yours.
Tell us straight
What’s slow, what’s missing, what doesn’t match how your yard works. Blunt feedback is the useful kind.
Bring your team along
Records are only as good as the people keeping them. We’ll want to hear from the trainer, the yard manager or head lad, and riders.
Patience with a pre-release app
Things will change between builds and some things will break. We’ll fix what we can quickly and tell you what changed.
Honest status
What’s in the build, and what’s next
ThoroughTrack is pre-release. Here’s exactly where it stands, so you know what you’d be using on day
one and what follows.
Built, pre-release
In the build today
Built, but not yet released — still being checked on real devices.
- Horse profiles Breeding, yard, status and notes for every horse.
- Several stables, one login Only ever see the horses you’re allowed to see.
- Exercise logging Manual entry: walk, trot, canter, gallop, swim, treadmill, lunge, hack, schooling.
- Quick health checks Temperature, weight, feed eaten, heart rate, respiratory rate and notes.
- Works offline Saves on the phone and syncs when you’re back in signal — and tells you if something can’t.
- Encrypted on the device Signing out wipes the stable data from the phone.
- Plain-English question matching Recognises questions like “Who is due a flu vaccine?”. The reports it opens are still to come.
Coming for the pilot
Next: ready for the pilot
What we’re finishing before pilot yards start.
- Team invitations and per-horse access
- Face ID, fingerprint or passcode unlock
- GPS gallop tracking Route, distance, pace and fastest furlong — started by the rider, clearly shown in the app while it runs, with a notification on Android.
- Pieces and route maps
- Shoeing, medication and vaccinations
- Horse photos
- Assisted import of your existing records
Planned for launch
After that: smart and shareable
Planned for launch, after the pilot-ready build.
- Answers to plain-English questions Gallop comparisons, year-on-year, training breakdowns.
- Health alerts and flu-vaccine reminders Against ranges your stable sets — none come built in.
- Stable-branded owner reports and PDFs
- Sharing by WhatsApp, email or private link
- Read-only owner login
- Notifications, with quiet hours
After that comes the public launch on the App Store and Google Play. We don’t give dates until we’re sure of them. For the full picture, see features.
Your data during the pilot
Real records, handled with care
Pilot data is real data about real horses and real people. Here’s how it’s looked after.
Hosted in the EU
Your stable’s data is stored with EU-hosted services, and backups are encrypted. During the pilot, backups run every six hours.
Encrypted on the phone
Records saved on a device are encrypted and left out of Android device backups. Signing out wipes them from that device.
GPS only when it’s properly set up
Location is recorded only while a rider runs an exercise recording they started themselves. Your yard decides whether to use it, and it stays off until the worker-location paperwork is in place.
Imports handled carefully
If we help you bring records across, the file travels encrypted and is checked in a dry run before anything lands in your stable.
No ad tracking
No advertising identifier, and no open or click tracking in our emails.
Take it with you, or delete it
A Stable Admin export is planned, and anyone can ask us to delete their account by email from our Delete your account page, without needing the app. An in-app Delete account option is being added before store launch.
Commercial terms, plainly
Pricing hasn’t been set, so you won’t find a price list here. Payments aren’t built into the app: during the pilot, early testers are invoiced manually, on terms we agree with each yard individually before you start. Nothing is charged without that conversation.

Questions
Pilot questions, answered
Is there a waiting list?
No. The pilot is by invitation, and we’re keeping it to a small number of yards so each one gets proper attention. If you’d like to be considered, email us your details.
When does the pilot start?
When the build is pilot-ready — GPS gallop tracking, full health records, horse photos and assisted import are the main pieces still to finish. We don’t publish dates; we’ll keep applicants posted directly.
How much does it cost?
Pricing hasn’t been set, so we don’t list any. There are no in-app payments in the first release: early testers are invoiced manually, on terms agreed with each yard individually before you start.
Can I download ThoroughTrack now?
Not yet. ThoroughTrack isn’t in the App Store or Google Play, and there’s no public beta. Pilot yards install it through Apple TestFlight or Google Play internal testing.
Which phones and tablets does it run on?
iPhone and iPad on iOS 16.4 or later, and Android phones and tablets on Android 8.0 or later. It’s designed phone-first for one-handed use in the yard.
Will it work on the gallops with no signal?
That’s the idea. Records are saved on the phone first and sync when you’re back in signal; if something can’t sync, the app tells you rather than quietly dropping it. Offline sync is in the build today and is being checked on real devices.
Will GPS track my staff?
No. Location is recorded only while a rider has an exercise recording running, which they start themselves and which is clearly shown in the app while it runs, with a notification on Android. There’s no live tracking of riders. Your yard is responsible for that data and decides whether to use GPS at all. Read how location data works.
Is the plain-English search AI?
No. It recognises a set of supported questions and opens the matching report. It works offline, and if it doesn’t recognise a question it shows examples it can answer rather than guessing.
Can my owners use it during the pilot?
Owner reports, sharing and the read-only owner login are planned for the release after the pilot-ready build, so pilot yards will see them as they arrive. See what’s planned for owners.
Can our vet or farrier use it?
Not yet. ThoroughTrack is being built so your yard team can record farrier visits and vaccinations, but vets and farriers won’t have their own access in the first release.
