Yes. Lightning is a phone-friendly recruiting platform for athletes in 16 sports — build a verified-stat profile, host your film, get matched to college programs, and message coaches, all from your phone for $25–$50 a year.
See LightningMost recruiting still runs on a web profile you send to coaches — but building it, updating stats, and reaching out all happen on your phone. Lightning is built for that: a mobile-friendly recruiting profile you set up in minutes, keep current from the stands, and share as one public link. Here is what a recruiting app should do and how Lightning does it.
Four jobs: build a public, verified-stat profile a coach can open on a phone; host your highlight film on that same page; help you find and contact the right college programs; and keep your stats current without a spreadsheet. Lightning covers all four across 16 sports.
Set up your profile, add positions and measurables, upload film, and log game stats live from the stands. Your public link and QR code update instantly, so the version a coach opens is always current.
The Pro tier ($50/yr) includes an AI College Matchmaker that builds a D1-to-JUCO target list with coach contact info, plus outreach email drafting and tracking that shows when a coach opens your message. You send the emails — the app does the finding and the follow-up reminders.
The Lightning tier is $25/yr (verified profile, film, coach messaging); Pro is $50/yr (adds the matchmaker, unlimited film, and profile-view + email tracking). There is no free tier, but Pro has a 30-day free trial. One profile covers all 16 sports at no extra cost.
Lightning is a mobile-friendly web platform — you use it in your phone browser and can save it to your home screen. Your profile is a public web link coaches open with no app or login required.
