Snap the card.
Skip the typing.
Round Review's scorecard scanner reads a photo of your paper card and turns it into a digital round in seconds — and it reads far more than the score. Fairways, greens, putts, even the little arrow you drew for a miss right: it reads whatever you actually wrote. Then it maps that shorthand to real shot outcomes — so a photographed card becomes a round with a shot map, dispersion, and strokes gained. No box-by-box tapping, no course to build by hand.
From paper to a full round
Photograph the card
Point your camera at your paper scorecard after the round. One shot of the grid is enough.
AI reads all of it
Scores, pars, putts, fairways, greens — even a hand-drawn arrow for a miss. Read in seconds; anything unclear is flagged to confirm, never guessed silently.
It becomes a real round
Your shorthand maps to shot outcomes and locations — then narrate the round and it grows into shot maps, dispersion, and strokes gained.
It reads what you wrote — not just the score
Most scanners grab the number in the box and stop. Round Review reads the whole card, in your own handwriting: the checks and dots and slashes, the ✗ where you missed the green, the little arrow you drew for a tee shot that leaked right. It doesn't need a tidy card — it reads the shorthand golfers actually use.
And it uses that shorthand. Fairway hit or missed (and which way you drew the miss), green in regulation, putts per hole — it maps those to real shot outcomes and rough positions, so a photographed card comes back as a reconstructed round: where the tee shot went, whether the approach found the green, how the hole was scored. Then narrate the round on the drive home and it fills in the rest — shot maps, dispersion, strokes gained a bare score sheet never had.
Scores drawn in circles and squares in the same notation you'd pencil on the card. Totals and score-to-par computed as it reads. For courses we have data for, everything lines up against the right holes automatically.
Questions golfers ask
Is there an app to scan golf scorecards?
Yes. Round Review reads a photo of a paper golf scorecard and turns it into a digital round. Point your camera at the card, and AI reads the score in each box, hole by hole, along with the printed pars — no typing the numbers in by hand.
How do I digitize a paper golf scorecard?
Photograph the card in the app, check the read (unclear boxes are flagged so you can fix them), and save. In a few seconds a paper card becomes a digital round with your totals, relation to par, and hole-by-hole scores drawn in real scorecard notation.
Does it read fairways, greens and putts, or just the score?
Far more than the score. Round Review reads the printed pars and computes your totals, but it also reads the stat shorthand golfers scribble — fairway hit or missed (including a hand-drawn arrow for which way), green in regulation, and putts per hole. It maps that to real shot outcomes, so the scan comes back as a reconstructed round, not just a list of numbers.
What happens after it scans my scorecard?
The scan gives you the scores; then you can talk through the round to add shot-level detail. Narrate the holes and Round Review builds shot maps, dispersion, and strokes gained from your words — the drive home is enough time to turn a paper card into a full picture of your game.
