We're looking for 3–5 shops to be design partners this season. Not testers. Co-creators.
The All-In-One Skate Sharpening App
Store View (iPad)
Customer View (iPhone)
Most customers can't find a sharpener near them, don't know if they're open, and have no way to book ahead. The service exists. The connection doesn't.
Your service exists. Customers just can't find it. No platform puts you in front of someone who needs their skates sharpened before they drive past you without knowing.
Word of mouth built your business. Today's customer checks before they show up. A visible presence with real reviews tells them you're the right call before they ever walk in the door.
Tournament weekends bring a predictable rush. Customers show up hoping their skates get done in time, with no visibility into the wait and no way to book ahead. You're managing the line in your head.
Retail died for a reason. Equipment makers keep multiplying stick lines, flexes, and blade patterns until no shop can stock them all, and volume never justified trying. Skates are heading the same direction with fit scans and custom builds. The need for sharpening has never gone anywhere. Which makes it the easiest thing you have to build a business around.
No dashboards to learn, no hours to keep updating on a website nobody visits. SharpEdge exists to put your sharpening service in front of the people already at the rink.
List your sharpening service, even without a storefront. You show up in search near every rink in the area, with no separate website or hours to maintain.
Set your hours and offered hollows; we estimate wait times automatically. Customers see real availability and book ahead or walk in.
Push notifications before tournaments tell traveling customers exactly where they can get their skates sharpened before puck drop.
For stores offering a drop box option, SharpEdge lets customers leave skates and track status right in the app, so you're not chained to the counter and they're not guessing when it's ready. Our design partners are shaping exactly how this works.
This isn't a survey at the end of a beta. Here's how we actually work together:
These are working prototypes of the actual app experience. Click around, no signup needed.
Shops get a clean iOS app to manage the queue, track revenue, and notify customers when skates are ready.
Customers open the app and see nearby shops, live availability, and pricing, then book a sharpening in under a minute. Tap through the screens to see the full flow.
We're not asking for a big commitment. We're asking for honest partnership. Here's exactly what building together looks like.
If this sounds like a partnership worth your time, let's chat about what you need and what we're trying to build.
We're choosing 3–5 shops for the opening season. Not because we can't handle more, but because real partnership requires real attention. We want to be in your shop, understand your operation, and build something that actually fits.
We'll reach out within 48 hours to schedule a conversation.
Thanks for wanting to build this with us.
