What It Is

DartsHQ is an AI coaching app built specifically for darts training, not just a scorekeeper. Users can enter every dart via keyboard or a clickable dartboard. Once the system captures the real X/Y coordinates, it analyzes heatmaps, grouping drift, double conversion, segment accuracy, and equipment performance, then generates personalized post-session reports.

Core Capabilities

Its AI coaching layer uses Google Gemini to generate analysis, training suggestions, and Bootcamp training plans. One distinctive feature is the mental-performance layer: it builds a coaching persona based on the CSAI-2 assessment, so the tone and focus of feedback adapt to how the player responds under pressure. Audio Coach can read reports aloud, but you need to provide your own ElevenLabs API key. Overall, the product is better suited to ongoing training review than one-off scorekeeping.

Pricing and Trial

The free tier is available long term, and registration includes a 14-day Pro trial with no credit card required. Free includes full game logging, 1 AI bootcamp per week, 1 Analyst report per week, a psychological profile, benchmarking, and 2 equipment loadouts. Pro costs £4.99/month or £39.99/year, increasing the limits to 3 bootcamps per day, analysis every 12 hours, post-match reports for every game, unlimited equipment setups, and more complete historical coaching memory.

Pros and Cons

The strengths are its low-friction trial, a free tier that is actually useful, and position-level analysis without requiring a camera or dedicated hardware. The combination of training plans, equipment comparison, and psychological profiling is also well rounded. Limitations include the official warning that AI-generated content may be inaccurate and cannot replace a professional coach; the voice feature requires an additional API key; and there is no stated support for a Chinese interface, Chinese reports, or localized payment methods.

Who It’s For and Access from China

DartsHQ is best suited to darts players with a regular practice routine who want to understand why their average score has plateaued, especially those willing to record dart landing positions in detail. Access from China is not disclosed in the available text. Given its reliance on third-party services such as Google Gemini, Stripe, Supabase, and ElevenLabs, network and payment availability may be uncertain. If using it from mainland China, you should first use the no-card trial to verify access, login, payment, and voice features.
