Concept 01 Built for Swiss social run clubs

The club
before the clock.

One warm, useful home for every run club—and one calm view for runners who belong to several.

01 / Product

One app.
Many clubhouses.

Relais keeps the network benefit of a shared platform while every club gets its own character, rules, partners and member space.

Unified for runners

A single agenda, RSVP flow and notification centre across clubs.

Distinct for clubs

Custom colours, access, announcements, benefits and culture.

Useful on run day

Pace groups, capacity, waitlists, check-in, sweeps and quick updates.

02 / Product thesis

Don't rebuild Strava.
Build the layer Strava misses.

Connect later

Activity data

Import aggregate distance—with explicit consent—from existing ecosystems after club engagement is proven.

  • Start with Strava + Apple Health
  • Opt-in and private by default
  • Celebrate groups, not leaderboards
Do not build

A full GPS tracker

Recording, routing and deep performance analytics are expensive, crowded and distract from the wedge.

  • No battery-heavy run tracking
  • No pace-based social status
  • No separate binary per club
03 / Club OS

Powerful behind the scenes.
Peaceful for members.

A web workspace gives volunteer organizers the control they need without turning the member app into a back office.
