Hey guys! I’ve been developing a scouting/analysis app for VEX called Veralis, your tool for VEX robotics scouting. It’s only in its first stages with more features to come, but the core is built around one idea, fast, structured scouting that your whole team shares in one live database. Instead of everyone keeping notes on their own phones or in a shared doc that nobody updates, every scout contributes to one view, scout a robot, and instantly your whole team sees it. No more scrambling to remember which robots were good when competition day rolls around the corner. It’s all in one place, and it gets more useful the more your team uses it.
What makes Veralis different is that it’s built around the how a robot actually plays, not just what it’s made of and when its standstill. Instead of writing down specs, it captures the stuff that wins matches, such as how big of a threat a team is, how they hold up under defense, how good their driver is, and how you should play against them. And on event day it becomes your command center, it displays your match schedule, gives you a live countdown to your next match and who you are up against, and shows your team’s scouting right next to those upcoming opponents. So between matches, you open it and instantly know who’s next and how to beat them.
A handful of users have been testing/using it and told me that the app is helpful and valuable, so I wanted to open it up more widely. As of right now, it’s just me building this because I actually live the problem, and I’m improving it constantly, so if you try it and something is missing or could be better, I’d genuinely love to hear it.
