The app
What is GolfCore?
GolfCore is a golf GPS app with high-resolution green maps, modeled wind, scoring and tournament play. Clubs run their operation on the same system through ClubOffice: the tee sheet, the caddie yard, the front desk, food and beverage on course, tournaments, the roster, and Anser, an AI copilot for the club. Developers reach the course data through the GolfCore API and MCP server.
What makes GolfCore's GPS different?
Every mapped green is drawn contour by contour with fall-line arrows. Pin positions appear live, and wind is drawn across the whole hole at your position.
How do I get the app?
GolfCore is free to download on the App Store for iPhone and on Google Play for Android, or use it on the web at golfcore.app. Every account has the satellite map, yardage and scoring at every course. New accounts start with a complimentary Premium preview that ends without a charge. Club operations require the permissions granted by club staff. CaddyCore Premium adds the illustrated course and its trees, green contours, modeled wind, the caddie and offline courses. In US dollars it is $10 a month or $100 a year, and new subscribers pay half for the first month or year; Stripe, the App Store and Google Play set the price in each country. Subscribe on the web at golfcore.org/premium/ or in the app.
Who is GolfCore for?
Golfers at public and private courses, caddies, and the clubs and staff running the operation. Search the course library and explore in your browser; a participating club membership is not required.
Courses and play
Is GolfCore available at my course?
23,885 courses are mapped contour by contour, across the United States and Canada, the links of Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland, continental Europe, Australia and New Zealand. The library holds 35,393 courses in 195 countries, with new ones coming online daily. The next phase is every course in the world where a caddie walks. Search the course library to check coverage and open your course in GolfCore. For missing coverage, contact support@golfcore.org.
Can tournament players and college golfers use GolfCore?
Yes. The app is free to download, and with 23,885 courses mapped, a practice round often starts with the greens already learned: contours, fall lines and wind before you arrive. The tournament engine runs stroke play, match play, skins and teams with live leaderboards. College programs and tours can write to support@golfcore.org.
Is GolfCore a golf simulator?
No. GolfCore is on-course software by GolfCore LLC. It is not the ProTee golf simulator product of the same name. The two are compared at golfcore.org/simulator.
Clubs and ClubOffice
Can my club run on GolfCore?
Yes. ClubOffice is complete club management software: the tee sheet and bookings, caddie requests, scheduling, arrivals and time tracking, the front desk inbox and announcements, food and beverage ordering on course, tournaments with live leaderboards, digital yardage and green books for members and staff, the roster, and the club's own branding.
What is Anser?
Anser is the AI copilot inside ClubOffice. Staff type a request into "Ask Anser anything" and Anser books a tee time, assigns caddies, sends a text, or answers from the club's own records, such as a season rundown. The Ansers tab also lays out the club's numbers by year: caddies, players and operations.
How much does ClubOffice cost?
Most clubs start with a free trial: claim your club with your club email and the full suite is unlocked for a complimentary period. After that, the ClubOffice Subscription is $200 a month or $2,000 a year for the whole club, and a new club pays half for its first month or year. The Free plan costs nothing and lets the club read every concierge message and keep its crest, colours, address and contact details current.
Can a club try ClubOffice for free?
Yes. A free trial unlocks the full ClubOffice suite for a complimentary period. Claim your club by signing in with your club email at golfcore.app/clubs. If your club email does not get you in, write to us at golfcore.org/contact and we set the club up with you.
Our course's details on GolfCore are wrong. How do we fix them?
Claim the club by signing in at golfcore.app/clubs with your club email. On the Free plan, at no charge, you edit the club's name, address, phone, email, website, architect, year opened, crest and colours under Front Desk, then Settings. For pars, yardages, stroke indexes, tees and greens, report the fix from the course map in the app (Map Settings, then Report feedback) or send the club's scorecard through golfcore.org/contact, and GolfCore corrects the course.
Do members pay for Premium at a GolfCore club?
No. Members, caddies and staff of clubs that use GolfCore hold the features Premium includes through their club.
Caddies
Do caddies use GolfCore?
Yes. Caddies carry the same app as the club and its members: green contour maps with fall lines, modeled wind and the day's pins. Loops are assigned off real tee times and confirmed by text, and once a caddie is onboarded at one club, any club on the platform can request them.
What do caddies see before a loop?
Each club decides. A caddie always sees their report time. The club chooses how long before the round the caddie sees the tee time, and separately the names and the group; until each reveal the app and the API withhold them.
About GolfCore
Where did GolfCore come from?
GolfCore was founded in 2023 for private-club play in California: walking rounds, single-bag caddies, and the operational detail that standard requires. The Institute Golf Club in Morgan Hill was the founding club, and three seasons of daily use there shaped the product you see now.
