For Golfers & PGA Coaches  ·  Coming 2026

Play with the intelligence
of a scratch golfer.

You have the data. What you’ve been missing is someone to explain what it means. Scratch IQ reads your Trackman numbers and on-course stats, translates them into plain English, and tells you exactly where you’re losing shots — and what to work on first. For golfers. For the coaches who work with them.

What Scratch IQ translates for you

Your club path is 3.2° out-to-in — here’s why that’s costing you fairways
You’re losing 1.4 shots per round from 100-150 yards — and here’s exactly why
Your 7-iron carries 11 yards short of your target distance — your gap needs closing

Scratch IQ insight
Your out-to-in path is producing a cut that pushes the ball right and reduces carry by 8–12 yards. Same root cause explains both problems. 3 drills assigned.

The Problem

The data exists. The translation doesn't.

01
📊

Data overload

You have Trackman numbers and Arccos stats. But without a way to interpret them, more data just means more confusion. The technology has outpaced the explanation layer.

02
🔗

No connection between practice and play

What happens on the range never gets connected to what happens on the course. You could be hitting it perfectly on the mat and still losing shots the same way every round — and nobody is joining those dots.

03
🔄

Between sessions, there's no clarity

Even with a coach, most golfers are on their own between lessons. No structure, no way to review what the data has been doing, and no clear sense of whether practice is translating to the course.

How It Works

From raw data to clear answers.

01

Share your data

Connect your Arccos account or upload your Trackman session. Works with what you already have — one source or both.

02

Scratch IQ reads the data

The AI engine identifies patterns across your data — connecting what happened on the range to what happened on the course — and surfaces the two or three findings most likely to save you shots.

03

Get a clear practice plan

Not just what is wrong — but what to do about it. Specific drills matched to your specific fault, with the metrics to track so you know whether it's working.

04

Track what changes

See whether the work is translating — round by round, session by session. When something improves the data will show it. When a new priority emerges, the plan updates.

The insight
Scratch IQ has translated your data
Your ‑2.1° out-to-in path is producing a consistent left-to-right shape off the tee. This is the same fault causing your irons to land short and right from 150–175 yards — a yardage your ball speed of 163 mph should be attacking. You are leaving 0.58 strokes per round on the table from one fixable root cause.

Built from a real frustration

A 1 handicap golfer with all the data — and no way to make sense of it.

Scratch IQ was built by Ciaran Crowley, a 1 handicap golfer based in the UK. After years of regular Trackman sessions and using Arccos every round, the question was always the same: which of these numbers actually matters for my game?

Seven screens of data. No clear answer. The frustration is universal among golfers who use technology to improve. Scratch IQ exists to fix it.

The founding insight

“I had the data. I had the technology. What I didn’t have was anyone to tell me what it meant — or what to work on. Scratch IQ is the translation layer that every data-aware golfer is missing.”
