The Need
Optimizing setup for each track and condition is a complex challenge for every driver. Each driver has a unique driving style, and each car requires specific adjustments for maximum performance. We realized - even when very niche - there is an interesting opening to implement our expertise from foreign markets into this project. That's why we partnered with RACEMAKE's founder as a shareholder and decided to put our money where our mouth is.

The Challenge
Developing an effective racing analytics app entails overcoming several challenges inherent to SIM racing, from accurately simulating realistic physics and handling characteristics to providing tools for maintaining precision and consistency in lap times, and offering insights into track-specific optimizations. Addressing dynamic conditions like weather changes and track variations requires real-time analytics and adaptable features. Furthermore, guiding users on technical setups and supporting mental focus during races are crucial. Integrating competitive features allows drivers to benchmark against global peers, enhancing the overall experience and performance improvement opportunities.

The Cleevio Solution
We tackled the challenges of developing a sophisticated racing analytics app by leveraging our expertise in app development and data analytics. By implementing detailed dashboards, users can access a wealth of information about their racing performance, including lap times, vehicle behavior, and driver techniques. We also integrated powerful visualization tools, offering graphical representations of key metrics like speed, braking, and tire conditions, making complex data easy to understand and actionable.
Project integrates technologies that make it sturdy with robust infrastructure. Next.js and Electron ensure top-notch user experiences on web and desktop platforms. NestJS and GRPC streaming provide efficient backend services and communication. MongoDB and PostgreSQL ensure flexible and stable data storage, while Google Pub/Sub enables reliable communication between components.
To enhance user engagement, we focused on creating an intuitive and visually appealing interface that caters to casual gamers and professional racers. We included features like performance comparison tools and social integration, allowing users to compare their laps with friends and learn from different driving techniques.
Additionally, our subscription model provides flexibility, ensuring accessibility for a broad audience. By addressing the need for detailed performance analysis and community interaction, we successfully delivered a comprehensive solution that meets the demands of racing simulation enthusiasts and professional drivers. In summary, the app is a sophisticated tool for racing simulation enthusiasts that combines detailed data analytics with user-friendly features, making it an essential resource for anyone looking to enhance their racing skills and experience.
We instantly fell in love with Milan’s idea and vision, so we offered Milan (CEO & Co-founder of RaceMake) a venture deal where Cleevio contributes cash and equity. We’re not just partners in this project but also co-founders.
