FEATURES
From Sunday morning rides to collecting membership dues. From sponsor management to your public club page. Free for clubs, forever.
Unlimited members · No credit card · Built in the Netherlands
1.0 — RIDES
Templates that repeat themselves, weather forecasts on every ride, and a ride detail that looks like a magazine spread.
Cyql charges a Pro subscription for recurring rides. Standard with us.
FIG. 1.1
Create one ride template — Sunday morning, 80 km, A/B/C groups — and set it to weekly. Grupetti generates the next twelve weeks of rides into your club calendar. Edit the template and only future rides update. No copy-pasting between spreadsheets, no forgotten ride on a holiday.
FIG. 1.2
Three weather points per ride: departure, midpoint, and arrival. The elevation profile colors red and green for headwind or tailwind. A warning bar appears for winds over 20 km/h or rain near departure. Open-Meteo provides the data — no API key, no rate limit, no paid plan.
FIG. 1.3
Members sign up with one tap, pick their speed group, and roll onto a waitlist automatically when the ride fills. When someone cancels, the first waitlister moves up and gets a push. After the ride you log attendance, and each member's ranking score updates instantly.
FIG. 1.4
Six stop types — coffee, lunch, regroup, photo, mechanical, finish — that you add in your ride template or per ride. Stops carry over to every generated ride and appear as markers on the map and in the timeline. A ride leader can drop a stop in mid-ride too.
FIG. 1.5
Open a ride and the route flyover plays a short aerial animation over the course: a camera flight over the first five kilometers, back to the start. Skip or replay. Members with reduce-motion get a static aerial photo. Small detail, big difference in how a ride card feels.
2.0 — ROUTES & MEMBERS
Import members from Strava or WhatsApp. A GPX library with wind analysis. Strava rides that match themselves to your club ride.
Zero to 80 members in one evening — Strava import or WhatsApp paste.
FIG. 2.1
Paste a list of phone numbers and names from your WhatsApp group — Grupetti parses them with per-row review and sends email or WhatsApp invites. Or connect your Strava club and pull members with avatars. Both flows preview first, so no accidental mass-invite.
FIG. 2.2
Upload a GPX and Grupetti renders the route, the elevation profile, and — unique to cycling — a per-segment wind analysis. The polyline recolors red and green for wind direction. A wind score pill sums up whether it's a tailwind cruise or a crosswind grinder. Tag routes by type (road, gravel, MTB).
FIG. 2.3
Members connect Strava. Their activities match automatically to the club ride by departure time and start location. Rode together as a group of five? Grupetti detects it automatically (±15 min, 500 m) and aggregates the stats into a single group ride. The Strava description is enriched with sponsor and club data.
Temporarily paused for new Strava connections; already-connected members continue to match as normal.
FIG. 2.4
Three roles with clear permissions: admin runs the club, ride leader publishes rides, member rides along. Each member has per-field privacy controls for phone, emergency contact, and location visibility. An admin sees what you share — and nothing more. GDPR-compliant from day one.
FIG. 2.5
A per-year ranking based on distance + elevation/100, computed live from matched Strava rides and manual attendance. Tabs for kilometers, elevation, and ride count. A year selector to pull up past seasons. No points system to invent — it works out of the box.
3.0 — EVENTS
Ticket sales with Stripe, QR check-in, automated reminders. Promo codes and waitlists standard.
Stripe Connect onboarding in 8 minutes. First ticket sold the same day.
FIG. 3.1
Social ride, training, open ride, business ride, race, Gran Fondo. A four-step wizard — basics, routes, tickets, review — that recognizes each type and offers the right options. Recurring events via templates: set up once, repeat automatically. Cover photo, date, location, capacity: done in two minutes.
FIG. 3.2
Ticket types per event: free, paid, members-only, Early Bird with an end date. Promo codes as a percentage or fixed amount, with a validity window and max uses. Payments via Stripe Connect direct to the club account (5% platform fee + €0.79 buyer service fee per ticket). Refunds in one click.
FIG. 3.3
Every attendee gets a confirmation email after payment with a QR code and an .ics calendar attachment. On event day you scan with the phone — the count ticks up live. No third-party ticketing tool, no Excel as backup, no handwritten check marks on a printed list.
FIG. 3.4
Email broadcasts to all attendees via Resend (batches of 50), push reminders 24 hours and 2 hours before the event, and weather updates when the forecast shifts. CSV export of registrations for your accountant. A waitlist that auto-promotes when someone cancels.
4.0 — SPONSORS
Tier management, deliverable tracking, automatic sponsor cards after every ride. A marketplace to find new sponsors.
Sponsor cards are auto-generated after every ride and auto-logged as a deliverable.
FIG. 4.1
Define your own tiers with logo size, posts per month, mentions on the club page, and yearly price. For each sponsor you see live progress: how many posts this quarter, how many ride hours with logo visibility, how many days until renewal. No more Excel with 'that one WhatsApp from Henk' tracked by hand.
FIG. 4.2
Generate an Instagram carousel after every ride: four photos from members, plus a fifth slide with sponsor logo, ride stats, and hashtag. Satori renders the slide server-side at 1080×1080. One tap to share from the mobile app — and the deliverable is logged in the sponsor report automatically.
FIG. 4.3
A monthly reach report, sent automatically to every sponsor: Instagram + Facebook + Strava impressions, a card preview per ride, and a renewal CTA as the end date approaches. The sponsor signs in via a tokenized link — no account needed, no password-reset emails.
FIG. 4.4
Turn on your marketplace listing and your club appears at grupetti.cc/sponsor with a club profile, member reach, and route impressions. Businesses send an inquiry directly; the admin gets a push. A public page that introduces itself to nearby businesses — no more cold WhatsApps.
FIG. 4.5
A separate sponsor route (grupetti.cc/your-club/sponsor) sells ride sponsorship: one ride, a bundle of four, or a whole season. Stripe Connect, 10% platform fee, direct payout to the club account. Includes auto-generated sponsor cards, post-ride report, and suggestions from nearby businesses.
5.0 — ONLINE
SEO-optimized at grupetti.cc/your-club. An embeddable ride calendar. Social media cards generated automatically after every ride.
Google indexes your club page, your upcoming rides, and your sponsors — out of the box.
FIG. 5.1
A server-side rendered, SEO-optimized club page on a custom slug. Cover photo, logo, two brand colors, description, upcoming rides, sponsor strip. JSON-LD SportsTeam schema for search engines. Open Graph image for social. A real URL you'd actually share in the WhatsApp group.
FIG. 5.2
An embeddable variant at grupetti.cc/embed/{slug}: stripped layout, your brand colors, just the upcoming rides. Paste one iframe line into WordPress, Wix, or your own club site. Updates instantly: a new ride in Grupetti = a new ride on your site, with no phone calls needed.
FIG. 5.3
Four photos from the ride plus a fifth sponsor slide, assembled into an Instagram carousel at 1080×1080. Captions are generated in the right language with ride stats, sponsor @mention, and club hashtag. One tap to share, one tap to log as a deliverable. Works from the mobile app or the dashboard.
FIG. 5.4
Invite cards (to invite members) and event promo cards (for public events) in two formats: square (1080×1080) for the feed and story (1080×1920) for stories. Satori + resvg-wasm render them server-side, including a QR code to the event page. One button to pull everything.
6.0 — FINANCE
SEPA Direct Debit with digital mandates. Automatic pre-notifications, retries on returns, and bank reconciliation. The treasurer finally gets a tool that actually works.
Pre-notification T−21. Collection T+0. Retry T+5. Escalation T+12. Fully compliant with SEPA Core Direct Debit.
FIG. 6.1
Define membership categories with their own contribution amount, frequency, and collection dates. Assign them per member in one click and the cycle generates itself. A default category is auto-created in your club's language, ready to edit.
FIG. 6.2
Members confirm their SEPA mandate digitally on a mobile-first page at grupetti.cc/mandate/{token}. Stripe Checkout in setup mode, legally valid under SEPA Core. Audit trail with IP, user agent, and SHA-256 of the mandate text — for the treasurer and the accountant.
FIG. 6.3
Three pg_cron jobs drive the entire cycle. T−21: an email to every member with an active mandate — well above the SEPA minimum of 14 days. T−3: Payment Intents created on the club's Stripe Connect account, platform fee as application_fee. T+0: Stripe executes the SEPA Direct Debit; webhooks transition invoice status atomically.
FIG. 6.4
Failed collections are classified by SEPA R-code. Retryable reasons (insufficient funds, unknown) get one automatic second attempt on T+5 — with a fresh Payment Intent and a distinct idempotency key per retry attempt. On T+12 the system escalates to the treasurer with a daily per-club summary, one email per club, no noise.
FIG. 6.5
Upload your bank statement and the system matches incoming payments against open invoices on mandate reference and amount. Unmatched transactions land in a categorization queue with suggestions based on prior behavior. Behind the scenes: a per-club chart of accounts, ready for the accountant.
Coming from another tool, or still on paper mandates? Migration mode invites your members in waves to re-confirm their SEPA mandate digitally — two minutes per member, with automatic reminders, a progress dashboard, and a follow-up menu for non-responders.
