What you get

The duct-tape stack, replaced.

Zoom + a screenshot + a WhatsApp voice memo is how most coaches share tactics today. Tactico replaces all three with one purpose-built room for soccer.

01 / PLAN

Plan together.

Up to five coaches see the same board, drag chips in real time, and draw pressing triggers, build-up patterns and transition arrows together.

02 / TALK

Talk it through.

Mic broadcast on by default for the host and assistants. Up to twenty players watch and listen, raise a hand to ask, get pushed to talk for 60 seconds.

03 / SHIP

Send the replay.

Every session is recorded by default. End it, copy the replay link, paste it in the team WhatsApp. Anyone who missed it scrubs the timeline and hears the voice.

How it works

Three clicks, no install, no calendar invite.

Live Sessions runs in the browser you already use for Tactico. Nothing to download, no Zoom seat, no calendar wrangling.

STEP 01

Click Live on the board.

You're already in the tactical board planning tomorrow's training. One button on the toolbar opens the Live panel.

Mic stays off until you press Start.
STEP 02

Share the link.

Two links: one for assistant coaches (edit access, signs in with email), one for players (view + raise hand, just a display name).

Drop the viewer link into the team WhatsApp.
STEP 03

Coach in real time.

Move chips, draw arrows, talk it through. Audio + board are recorded together. End the session and the replay link is ready to share.

Stored 7 days, extendable up to 5 weeks.
Anatomy of a session

Everything happening on one screen.

No tab-switching, no second screen. The board, the voice, the presence list, and the recording state all live on the same surface.

A single surface, no tab-switching.

Everything a coach needs to run a remote tactical session is on one screen.

  • 1

    Presence + voice pill (top center)

    Floating bar shows who's editing, with a one-tap Mute. Live since you said the first word.

  • 2

    Recording state (top right)

    A live timer + REC dot. The audio is captured browser-side, no servers in the loop, finalises the moment you end.

  • 3

    Drawing tools (left rail)

    The same arrows, lines and zone overlays you use solo. Every stroke renders for every editor in under 200ms.

  • 4

    Raise-hand requests (bottom)

    Viewers tap a hand icon, you approve. They get the mic for 60 seconds, then it auto-reverts.

Use cases

How coaches actually use it.

Five real situations Tactico's Live Sessions were built for. Pick the one closest to you.

★ MOST USED

Pre-game tactical briefing.

The night before a fixture, you and your assistant build out the press triggers, build-up shape and set-piece routines together — without driving across town.

Record it. Send the link to the squad WhatsApp at breakfast. Every player has watched the same 8-minute briefing before they get on the bus.

Replaces: Zoom call + screenshot + voice memo + WhatsApp follow-up.
FAST

Virtual halftime talk.

Players staying with their parents away from the venue still see the second-half adjustments on the same board the bench is looking at.

1:1

Player feedback session.

Walk a single player through their decisions in the last match. Drag their chip, draw the option they missed, send them the 4-minute replay.

COACHING EDUCATION

Remote coaching certification work.

License candidates record a tactical walkthrough as part of their portfolio. The replay link is the deliverable — no editing, no export, just a URL their tutor opens in a browser.

MULTI-TEAM

Staff sync across age groups.

Five coaches across three age groups align on the club's pressing model in one session. Recorded once, reused every season.

Vs the rest

We checked. We're the cheapest live tactical room in soccer.

Most coaching apps are either single-user tactic boards (TacticalPad, e2c Tactics) or post-match analysis platforms (Hudl, Veo). The only product that comes close on real-time is JLA Tactics Board, and it has no voice broadcast and no replay link.

Note: enterprise platforms like Hudl Sportscode (~$1,800/seat/yr) and Veo (~$1,135/yr + hardware) play a different game. They're post-match analysis suites, not live coaching rooms. For coaches who want to run a tactical session in real time, Tactico is the only option under $5/month. Pricing verified May 2026.
Replay forever (well, 5 weeks)

Every session is recorded by default.

The moment you click End session, Tactico finalises the recording: the audio from every coach, synced to the chip movements and drawings that happened on the board. You get a single URL to share. No upload, no export, no editing software.

Stored seven days by default. The host can extend retention four times, taking the maximum to about five weeks. If you delete a recording from your dashboard, the replay link instantly stops working for anyone you sent it to.

Viewers don't need an account. Drop the link in the team WhatsApp, tape it to the locker-room screen, paste it in a coaching-cert portfolio. Anyone with the URL plays it in a browser.

FAQ

The questions coaches ask before signing up.

Can my assistant coach join without a Tactico account?
Assistant coaches (editors) need a free Tactico account to edit the board. Viewers do not need an account at all — they join the viewer link by typing a display name. Open the board to invite an assistant in under a minute.
Does Tactico record the audio along with the board?
Yes. When the host enables recording, Tactico captures the live voice and synchronises it with the board snapshots. The result is a single replay link that plays the audio alongside the chip movements and drawings, exactly like the session looked live.
How long are replays kept?
Seven days by default. The host can extend retention by 7 more days up to 4 times, for a maximum of about 5 weeks. Replays can also be deleted earlier by the host at any time from the dashboard.
Do viewers need to sign up to watch a replay?
No. The replay link is public by default. Anyone with the link can watch the recording on any browser, scrub the timeline, and listen to the audio. The host can revoke the link at any time.
Can I use Live Sessions on iPad or phone?
Yes. Tactico works in any modern browser on iPad, iPhone, Android and desktop. The tactical board is the same on every device; the live session and voice broadcast work over WiFi or LTE.
Is there a free tier for Live Sessions?
Yes. Free accounts get one live session per rolling 7-day window, with audio recording and a shareable replay. Pro accounts get unlimited live sessions, up to 3 active replays, and voice broadcast. See the pricing page for the full breakdown.
How is this different from running tactics on Zoom?
On Zoom you share a static screenshot, talk over it, and lose everything when the call ends. On Tactico the board is alive: every coach can drag chips, draw pressing lines, and toggle drills in real time, with voice synced and a permanent replay link at the end.
Is Tactico cheaper than TacticalPad, Coach Logic and CoachNow?
Yes. Tactico Pro is $4.99/mo (or $3.99/mo billed yearly). TacticalPad is $24–63/year for a single-user board with no live collaboration. Coach Logic is £4.99/mo individual or £385/yr for Teams, with no live collaborative board. CoachNow is $9.99/mo for async Spaces only. None of them include real-time multi-user tactical board with voice and replay. See the full comparison.
