Is the LapsHub driver app still free?
Yes. Individual drivers download and use LapsHub free on iPhone and Android. LapsHub Live Platform is a separate offer for organizations and integrators who need private events, pit-wall infrastructure, or live data/video integration at scale.
How much does it cost?
We do not publish list pricing. Pilot and design-partner pricing depends on event size, number of concurrent live streams, and integration scope. Contact us with your car count, telemetry source, and target date. We will share architecture options and pilot pricing.
What happens to onboard video after a session?
Live onboard video is ephemeral while the driver is on air, built for coaching and crew viewing in real time. Session onboard recordings are stored on the driver’s device for their own replay; cloud VOD is not part of the current v1 stack. Retention and export policies for org pilots are scoped during design partner onboarding.
Can we use our own data loggers or timing hardware?
Platform integrators can discuss ingest from LapsHub devices, phone GPS, RaceBox BLE, and partner data paths in the design partner program. Bring your telemetry source and target stack. We will map what is available today vs. on the roadmap.
Is this the same as the public live-event map?
No. Org and integrator deployments are scoped to your event, roster, or customer base. Partner streams do not appear on the public live-event map by default. You control who is in the viewing group.
What is the design partner program?
We are working with a small set of teams and integrators to validate live telemetry plus sub-2-second onboard video in real paddock conditions: private events, pit walls, and fan-out integrations. iOS live publish is in active development; Android live publish is on the roadmap. Contact us if you want to join a pilot.
