01Project Overview
One ecosystem, many workflows.
ARC is a competitive gaming ecosystem. It brings together the workflows competitive communities rely on, player profiles, recruitment, tournaments, content and communication, which normally live across a patchwork of separate products.
Inherit Code designed and built the platform around how players, teams, organizers and scouts actually operate, with support for competitive communities across titles such as BGMI, Free Fire and Clash of Clans.
Built for
- Esports players
- Teams & organizations
- Tournament organizers
- Talent scouts & recruiters
02Industry Challenge
Competitive gaming runs on tools that were never built to work together.
- 01
Player identity is scattered across profiles, chats and social media.
- 02
Recruitment happens informally, in DMs and group chats.
- 03
Tournaments are organised through spreadsheets and ad-hoc tooling.
- 04
Payouts are handled manually, with little shared visibility.
- 05
Clips and highlights live on platforms disconnected from competitive identity.
- 06
Discovery is hard, talent is easy to miss and difficult to verify.
03Platform Ecosystem
Eight workflows, one connected platform.
Each part of competitive life that normally lives in a different product is designed here as one connected system.
Player Profiles
Public profiles showcasing competitive history, achievements, preferred games, roles and clips.
Recruitment
Teams and organizations publish openings; players browse and apply directly.
Tournaments
Organizers create and manage tournaments and scrims through the platform.
Prize Distribution
Tournament payouts can be administered through the platform for a more transparent process.
Content & Clips
Players upload gaming clips and short-form content.
Talent Discovery
Organizations and recruiters discover players through content, profiles and activity.
Communication
Direct messaging and in-platform communication, including voice and video.
Multi-Game Support
Built for competitive communities across titles such as BGMI, Free Fire and Clash of Clans.
04Recruitment System
Recruitment, made direct.
Teams and organizations publish recruitment opportunities, for players and for staff, and players apply to them directly, replacing the informal hiring that usually happens across scattered chats.
- Team and staff recruitment postings
- Searchable openings with filters for game, type and location
- Recruitment cards showing role, location, compensation and applicants
- Direct applications from player profiles
05Tournament Infrastructure
Tournaments and scrims, organised.
Tournament organizers create and run competitions through the platform, from scrims to prize events. Payouts can be administered through the same workflow, making prize distribution more transparent for organizers and participants.
- Create and manage tournaments and scrims
- Scrim listings with format, slots and schedule
- Join and registration flows for teams
- Prize distribution administered through the platform
06Player Discovery
Discovery built on real activity.
Organizations and recruiters find players through their profiles, their content and their activity on the platform, surfacing talent that would otherwise be easy to miss.
- Profiles with competitive history, roles and achievements
- Discovery through clips and short-form content
- Activity-driven visibility for players
- A path from discovery to recruitment in one place
07Content & Clips
A content layer for competitive play.
Players upload gaming clips and short-form content, giving their competitive identity a living, social dimension, and giving scouts another signal to discover talent.
- Short-form vertical clip feed
- Player-uploaded gaming content
- Social interactions on clips
- Content tied directly to player profiles
08Communication Layer
Built to coordinate, in-platform.
Players, teams and organizations communicate through direct messaging and platform tools, including voice and video, so coordination happens where the rest of the workflow already lives.
- Direct messaging between users
- Voice and video communication
- Team coordination around trials and recruitment
- Communication connected to profiles and recruitment
