Demo Day Timer & Scorecard
Time every team's pitch with a countdown and warning chime, then have judges score weighted criteria (idea, execution, wow-factor) that roll into an automatic ranked leaderboard. Works offline.

How to play
- List your team names and judge names, then set your judging criteria and give any of them extra weight if it should count more.
- Set the pitch time limit in seconds, then tap Start Demo Day.
- Start the pitch timer for each team's turn — it turns amber with a warning chime in the final 30 seconds.
- Pass the device to each judge to lock in scores on every criterion; once all judges are locked, tap Reveal Scores to compute the weighted total and update the leaderboard.
Demo Day Timer & Scorecard runs a full pitch competition from the clock to the leaderboard. Set a countdown per pitch that turns amber with a warning chime in the final 30 seconds, define your judging criteria (Idea, Execution, and Wow Factor by default, fully editable) each with its own weight, and pass the device to every judge to lock in scores from 1 to 10 on each criterion. Scores stay hidden behind a Locked indicator until every judge has submitted, then Reveal Scores flips them together and computes each judge's weighted total before averaging across judges into one overall team score. Every revealed team drops straight into a live, automatically ranked leaderboard, so by the time the last team pitches you already have your winner.
Frequently asked questions
- How is this different from Dance-Off Judge Cards?
- Dance-Off Judge Cards averages one flat 1-10 score per judge per contestant with no weighting and no timer, built for a talent-show reveal moment. Demo Day Timer & Scorecard scores multiple named, independently weighted criteria per judge (so Idea can count more than Execution, for example), combines them into a weighted total before averaging across judges, and integrates a countdown pitch timer with a pre-expiry warning — neither of which the dance-off tool has.
- How exactly is the weighted total calculated?
- Each judge's per-criterion score is multiplied by that criterion's weight, the weighted scores are summed and divided by the total weight to get that judge's weighted total for the team, and then every judge's weighted total is averaged to produce the team's overall score. A criterion weighted ×3 genuinely counts three times as much as one weighted ×1 in the final number, not just visually.
- What happens if two teams end up with the exact same score?
- The leaderboard breaks ties consistently by team name in alphabetical order, so the ranking is always deterministic and never shows an ambiguous or shuffled order between equally-scored teams across re-renders.
