WELLNESS · 健

One number tells you whether to train hard today.

Sleep, soreness, energy, recent load. A daily Health Index from 0 to 100. Six breath protocols. A body soreness map you tap, not type. Wellness shouldn’t feel like work — and on the platform, it doesn’t.

WOMEN'S PATHWAY · 女道

Female senseis, women-only sessions, welfare leads on every roster.

Find a female sensei near you. Filter for women-only training slots. Track training load against your cycle. Every dojo on the platform names a welfare officer before junior or women members can join. Built with women senseis, not for them.

ANY ATHLETE · 競技者

Built for karateka — usable by any sportsperson, any discipline.

A training log that accepts kihon, kata, kumite — or a run, a lift, a yoga session. Body composition, reach, grip strength, vertical jump — every metric a serious athlete actually tracks. Cross-train freely. The Karate ID does not police your sport.

THE GAP WE ARE CLOSING · 由

Karate has run on paper, WhatsApp groups and lost certificates for too long.

Athletes lose grading records when they move dojos. Coaches re-sit certifications because the federation never digitised. Parents cannot verify a sensei's credentials. Tournaments are run from spreadsheets and group chats. The oldest unbroken martial art in continuous global practice deserves the same digital backbone we now take for granted in football, athletics and cricket.

We are building it — world-class, federation-friendly, region-neutral. Built to integrate, not replace. Any national body, multi-sport council or continental sport committee can plug their athletes into Karate.support and keep their own governance intact.

The Karate ID is yours for life. Every record is yours for life. Everything else gets shipped only when it can actually carry real weight.

● ADVANCED CAPABILITIES · 12 OF MANY

What no other karate platform has ever offered — under one roof.

Sovereign athlete identity. Cryptographically signed grading records. world-class tournament infrastructure. Federation-tier APIs. AI coaching trained on senior dan-grade footage. Verifiable lineage graphs. An athlete-owned medical archive that selectors cannot read without your consent. Twelve flagship capabilities below — the platform ships dozens more across the dashboard.

Sovereign athlete identity
A lifetime Karate ID no governing body can revoke. One number, every dojo, every federation, every continent — from your first white belt to your final dan.
OPEN →
Tamper-evident grading registry
Cryptographically signed belt certificates, verifiable in any federation database. Kyu through Judan, every recognised style. Indelible across decades.
OPEN →
world-class tournament engine
Hash-published draws, immutable bracket integrity, verified registrations, signed podium results. Built to host continental and world-championship-level events end-to-end.
OPEN →
Credentialed sensei registry
Every listed sensei carries an independently audited credential trail — current licence, lineage chain, teaching years, safeguarding clearance. Verification is non-negotiable.
OPEN →
Globally inspected dojo network
Verified-only listings with on-site audit history, mat-safety review, governance check, and welfare-officer attestation. The blue shield is earned, not bought.
OPEN →
Curated kata canon
Living reference across every major style — embusen, count, bunkai, grading criteria. Curated by senior dan-grade practitioners; not crowd-sourced, not auto-generated.
OPEN →
API
Federation-grade public API
Sovereign-tier endpoints for national federations and international sport councils. Member sync, grading verification, tournament feeds — JSON:API compliant, rate-tiered, audit-logged.
OPEN →
AI coach + technique analysis
Real-time technique feedback, personalised training plan generation, and bout-tape review trained on senior dan-grade footage. Augments your sensei — never replaces.
OPEN →
Safeguarding-first welfare channel
Private welfare-reporting channel for juniors and women athletes. Routed to verified safeguarding officers. Independent of dojo politics, with full audit trail.
OPEN →
Athlete-owned medical archive
Injury, recovery, and anti-doping records owned by the athlete — not the dojo, not the federation. Consent-gated sharing. Selectors cannot read what you have not released.
OPEN →
Verifiable lineage graph
Trace your karate ancestry node-by-node to the style founder. Living teachers confirm or correct their listed students. Disputed claims flagged, not deleted.
OPEN →
Federation-grade authentication
Phishing-resistant, passwordless sign-in with cryptographic session integrity. No shared secrets. No password reuse risk. Audited to financial-services standard.
OPEN →
INFRASTRUCTURE · 基盤

Built to the standard a national federation or international sport council can adopt.

We have made the foundation choices first, before the surface features. None of this is marketing — it is in the codebase, the database, the deployment config, and is auditable on request.

Federation-grade backbone
Postgres on managed infrastructure with point-in-time recovery, audit trails on every record, row-level security and role separation between athlete, sensei, federation and admin.
Identity built to verify
Magic-link auth, HMAC-signed sessions, server-side cryptographic passes. No password reuse, no plaintext storage. Lifetime member numbers are issued once and never recycled.
Multi-region, multi-currency
Edge-served globally with regional pinning across every continent. Payments accepted from every country, in every supported currency, via PCI-DSS-certified rails.
Records owned by the athlete
Gradings, attendance, tournament history and sensei attestations attach to the Karate ID — not to any single dojo. Moves dojo? Moves country? The record moves with the athlete.
Open to governing bodies
Federation tier ships read/write APIs, member sync, multi-sensei roles, and signed grading certificates. Built to support — not replace — any national or continental governance.
Privacy by construction
No ad networks. No third-party analytics. No tracking pixels. Strict cookie policy, full data export and deletion on request. GDPR / DPDP-aligned by default.
For governing bodies evaluating Karate.support for member sync, grading rolls or tournament infrastructure — write to us via the contact page. We share architecture diagrams, data-residency options and SLA terms on request.

HOW WE BUILD · 流

Three rules we will never bend.

Substance, not surface

Records that hold up in a federation audit. Endpoints that respond under load. Identity that survives a country move.

For a lifetime

The Karate ID never expires. Records belong to the athlete, not the dojo or federation — portable across countries, organisations and decades.

Open by construction

Open APIs, exportable records, portable identity, public audit posture. Every dependency is visible to the federations that rely on it.
Your record starts today

One number. One lifetime. One karate.

Join karateka in 94 countries building a permanent, portable record of their journey on the mat.
