One platform, every role at the event
ShowHive is a mobile-first platform for judged events — organize, register, judge. Each role gets exactly the tools they need. We're starting with car & motorcycle shows, so the examples below use vehicles.
For organizers
Event setup in minutes
Create an event, define classes, attach scorecard templates, set free or paid registration — or clone last year's event and adjust.
Registration control
One tap opens or closes registration. Online pre-registration plus an on-site desk mode for walk-ups, cash entries, and receipts.
Live progress
Watch judging progress per judge and per class, chase stragglers, and close judging when every card is in.
Direct payouts
Connect your own Stripe account (guided setup). Entry fees settle to you — ShowHive never touches the money and takes 0% of transactions.
Sponsor visibility
Upload sponsor banners with click-through links; they appear on your public event page and voting page.
Awards, your way
Judged awards, People's Choice, sponsor/celebrity picks, and computed awards (e.g. highest score across classes) — reveal winners when you choose.
For judges
Scan & score
Scan the placard QR, get the right scorecard for that class, score weighted criteria with deductions and notes.
Offline by design
Preload the event before it starts. Every score saves to the device instantly and syncs when signal returns — a dead zone never stops judging.
No double-judging
The app prevents judging your own entry and flags duplicate cards for the same entry.
For entrants
Register once, reuse everywhere
Save your vehicles once — specs, mods, photos — and register for any event in a few taps.
Pay in the app
Entry fees by card via Stripe, with a clear receipt. Fee amounts and any card surcharge are shown before you pay.
Trophy case
Awards you win attach to your entry permanently — a public trophy case that travels with your build.
You control visibility
Choose field-by-field what spectators can see about each entry.
For spectators
No install needed
Scan a placard QR and vote for People's Choice right in the browser. One vote, verified, done.
Find events
A public directory of upcoming events — dates, locations, and details.
Live results
When the organizer reveals winners, results are on the web immediately.
