What you get

Private by default

Only signed-in members of your school see its photos. Parents choose whether their child can be tagged, and children's names are shown only to staff and their own parents.

Rank progress

Belts and stripes on every member's profile, with built-in rank systems for BJJ (including Gracie University), Judo, Karate and Taekwondo. Customise any of them, and track a rank in each art a member trains.

Photos, videos and albums

Upload a whole class or promotion night at once, add videos straight from a phone, and build albums from what's already in the gallery. YouTube and Vimeo links in posts play right in the post.

Courses and video review

Build courses from lessons, photos and videos, or start from a ready-made template. Students send technique videos for an instructor's feedback, and seminars get pre-work before the day and a review after it.

Rank requirements and certificates

Set what each belt or stripe requires (techniques an instructor signs off, time at rank, seminars or tournaments attended), and each student sees their own path. Print promotion and course certificates with your school's name and your lineage.

Events and RSVPs

Tournaments, seminars, promotions and graduations, with Going and Interested RSVPs, your own payment link, calendar downloads and a shareable page for public events.

Feed and groups

A feed for your school's posts, photos and promotions. Groups such as competition team or instructors make sure each post and event reaches the right people.

Comments and messages

Threaded comments, likes, pinned announcements, direct messages between members, and notifications on their phones.

Moderation and dashboard

Members can report content to your staff, who review and remove it. Your dashboard handles members, invites, children, groups, ranks and photo privacy. Your school gets its own web address, and you can download all of its data at any time.

Works with GymDesk Coming soon

New members get an invite automatically, and promotions recorded in GymDesk update their rank.

Built by a school owner

MartialQuest is built by Tim Martin, a black belt in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and owner of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Green Cove Springs in Florida. His four decades of training include Taekwondo, Filipino Martial Arts, Pencak Silat, Jun Fan and Wing Chun. Green Cove Springs is the first school on MartialQuest.

Running a Gracie University CTC?

MartialQuest was built at a Gracie University Certified Training Center. The Gracie University adult and youth belt systems are built in, so your students' ranks look the way they do on the mat from day one. CTCs save 20% on every plan.

Questions

Who can see our photos?

Only signed-in members. Photo links don't work for anyone who isn't signed in, and direct-message attachments are visible only to the two people in the conversation.

We teach kids. How will that work?

Children don't need their own accounts. Parents join with an invite linked to their child, see their child's photos and promotions, and decide whether their child can be tagged. Children's names are visible only to staff and their own parents.

Does it work for our style's rank system?

Rank systems for BJJ (IBJJF and Gracie University, adult and youth), Judo, Karate and Taekwondo are built in, plus a levels system for schools without belts. You can customise names, colors and stripes, and schools that teach several arts can track a rank in each.

Do we need GymDesk?

No. MartialQuest works on its own. A GymDesk connection for automatic invites and rank updates is coming for schools that use it.

Can a student belong to more than one school?

Yes. One login works across every school someone trains at, they switch between schools in one tap, and each school sees only its own content.

What does it cost?

From $39 a month, depending on how many active students you have (see Pricing). Every school starts with a 30-day free trial with no card needed, and isn't charged until an owner chooses a plan. Members never pay.

Who counts toward our plan?

Every active student, children included. Parents who don't train aren't counted. If your numbers move into another plan, we email you first and the new price starts at your next renewal.

Can we post videos?

Yes. Add videos to the gallery straight from a phone, and students can send technique videos for review. Large videos upload in pieces, so a slow connection can pick up where it left off. YouTube and Vimeo links play inside the post.
