Description
Most golf apps show you distances. Golf Playbook shows you risk.
Color-coded risk zones, weather-compensated dispersion, AI Caddie, and printable course strategy — features other apps charge $150/year for. We built them free.
——— NEW IN 3.0 ———
AI CADDIE
Get on-device club and strategy advice powered by Apple Intelligence. It factors in your clubs, the terrain, wind, and your shot dispersion to recommend the smartest play. Private — nothing leaves your phone. Works offline on the course.
LIVE SCORECARD
Track your round hole by hole. Log putts, edit scores, and see real-time stats as you play.
COURSE SEARCH
Browse courses and instantly see which ones support full auto-strategy. Request any course you don't see.
CLUB-TO-TARGET FIT
See how your club's shot pattern fits the landing zone — know instantly if your dispersion covers the target or if you're bringing trouble into play.
——— WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT ———
Most golf apps license a third-party course database and wrap GPS around it. Same data, different skin.
We built our course intelligence from raw open terrain data — every risk zone, every contour, from the ground up. That's why we can do things no other app can:
• Color-coded risk zones (R/A/G) — red, amber, green overlays computed from terrain and your shot dispersion. Patent pending. Nowhere else, free or paid.
• Weather-compensated dispersion — true elliptical patterns adjusted for wind, slope, and altitude.
• AI Caddie — on-device intelligence that reasons about the hole, not just the yardage.
• Personal playbooks — auto-generated course strategies you customize and share.
• Weather simulation — see how conditions change your game plan before you play.
• Aim lines — draw and fade visualized on the hole.
——— CREATE → PLAY → REVIEW ———
CREATE your playbook before the round. Pick your course, set your clubs from your 7-iron distance, and Golf Playbook generates a hole-by-hole strategy with risk zones, dispersion overlays, and club recommendations.
PLAY your round with a live scorecard. Your AI Caddie is there when you need advice.

——— WHY IT'S FREE ———
Golf is a beautiful game. Strategy shouldn't cost $150/year.
We built our own terrain data from OpenStreetMap. Our AI runs on your device — no expensive cloud servers. What costs other companies millions to operate costs us almost nothing.
The college kid who can't afford Arccos. The weekend player who won't pay for 18Birdies Premium. They deserve real course strategy tools. AI and open source made it possible. We're grateful.
Free. Not "free trial." Not "freemium with the good stuff locked." Free.
