Boilerplate

StrokeInk is a smart golf scorecard built around a 3.52-inch e-ink display, five tactile buttons, and StrokeInk Sync. It mounts to the cart two ways — a Scorecard Mount that clamps to the steering wheel, or a Magnetic Mount that sticks to the cart frame or windshield posts — replacing the paper scorecard with a sunlight-readable display that runs for weeks on a single charge.

Where existing golf-tracking products demand attention during the round, StrokeInk is designed to disappear into the background. Players score with a single tap, hole by hole, with no phone in their hand. After the round, the device syncs to the companion app for full analytics, handicap tracking, and social sharing.

StrokeInk is built by golfers with over four decades of on-course experience across amateur and professional tournaments. StrokeInk hardware and online store are operated by VD Solutions LLC (Austin, Texas); the StrokeInk mobile apps are published by Montana Prosperity LLC (Albuquerque, New Mexico). StrokeInk is currently accepting waitlist signups ahead of its Autumn 2026 launch.

Key messages

"The paper scorecard has worked for a century. Phone-based trackers ruin the round they're meant to track. We built the middle ground."
— Fred Brocher, Founder
"E-ink. Five buttons. Weeks of battery. Designed to disappear while you play."
— StrokeInk product description
"Score with the device. Analyze and Share with the phone. Open the app after the round — never during."
— StrokeInk core principle
