Integrated Multi-Device Timing, Predictive Tracking & Safety System

For long events where participants are spread out over many hours, race directors need more robust, tech-forward tools to improve timing accuracy, safety, and live tracking.

Feature Requests:

Allow multiple devices to record results at the same checkpoint/location, enabling teams to manage extended check-in windows without conflicts

Display public-facing predicted arrival times for each checkpoint using historical data and live progress to help crews and spectators plan

Link checkpoint locations to mapping platforms (e.g., Google Maps) for easier crew navigation

Introduce a built-in, integrated safety tracking system to monitor participant locations in real-time

Impact:

Helps race directors manage remote and complex courses

Assists crews with better planning and real-time updates

Enhances the spectator experience for remote friends and family

Adds a layer of participant safety through location-based monitoring

This would be a transformative upgrade, especially for endurance and backcountry events, positioning UltraSignup as a leader in race-day tech and safety.
