Building the Home of Rodeo
Rodeo Apps is the first technology company dedicated entirely to the rodeo industry. We\'re building the unified platform that connects every discipline, every competitor, and every fan.
The Opportunity No One Else Saw
Rodeo is a $34 billion industry. It has 83 million fans in the U.S. alone. Professional rodeo athletes travel hundreds of thousands of miles per year, competing at hundreds of events. And the technology serving them? Facebook groups and paper entry forms.
We saw a massive industry with zero real technology infrastructure — and athletes who deserved better. Not a flashy app that looks good in a pitch deck. Real tools. The kind that actually solve problems people face every single weekend.
Rodeo Apps was founded as a subsidiary of Apps 1, LLC with a simple but ambitious mission: build the operating system for rodeo. Not one app — an entire ecosystem. Discipline-specific tools that work independently but grow stronger together.
The Operating System for Rodeo
We\'re not building one app. We\'re building the platform — the connected ecosystem that every discipline plugs into. Think of it like this: each sport within rodeo gets its own purpose-built app, designed for the unique needs of that discipline. But underneath, they share infrastructure, data, and community features that make the whole greater than the sum of its parts.
When a barrel racer opens BarrelConnect, she sees her world. When a bull rider opens Bullrider.Pro, he sees his. But they\'re all part of the same ecosystem — the same operating system. Results flow across disciplines. Events are discoverable. The rodeo community is finally connected.
Our Values
Purpose-Built
Every app is designed for a specific discipline by people who understand that discipline. No one-size-fits-all. No compromise.
Community-First
We build with the community, not just for it. Real input from real athletes, organizers, and fans shapes every feature.
Western Work Ethic
We build things that work. Practical, reliable tools that solve real problems — not vanity features for investor decks.
Long-Term Vision
We're not chasing trends. We're building the infrastructure rodeo will run on for the next 20 years.
Every Discipline
From barrel racing to bull riding, team roping to steer wrestling — every event deserves world-class technology.
Rodeo-Native
Our team lives in the rodeo world. We don't need focus groups to understand the culture — we are the culture.
