Join the WaitlistFrequently Asked Questions
Is this bracket maker really free?
Completely free, with no hidden limits. You can create unlimited brackets, add up to 128 participants, and export or share them without ever creating an account. We plan to offer a Pro tier in the future with advanced features, but the core bracket maker will always be free.
What bracket formats are supported?
Right now we support single elimination brackets with automatic seeding, random ordering, and bye handling for any participant count between 2 and 128. Double elimination, round robin, and group-to-knockout formats are coming soon.
Can I save and share my bracket?
Yes. Every bracket gets a unique shareable link you can send to anyone. You can also export your bracket as an image or print it directly from the browser. Persistent cloud-saved brackets are on the roadmap.
Does it work on mobile?
Absolutely. Rise is fully responsive and works on phones, tablets, laptops, and desktop monitors. The bracket scales to fit your screen so you can run a tournament from anywhere.
