Every weekend, in every country, people make sport happen. A club opens registrations. A league builds a schedule. A federation checks who is affiliated. And behind each of those jobs sits a pile of manual work: spreadsheets, payment follow-ups, phone calls to find a referee, results typed twice.
I am Akrem Ziani, founder and CEO of Onzaris. I started it to put that work on autopilot.
Sport runs on three trades
The more organizations I talked to, the clearer it became. Whatever the sport or the country, the work falls into three trades:
A soccer club, a basketball league, a referee association and a national federation do not need four different tools. They need one product that knows which of these jobs they do.
Anything that touches sport, Onzaris does it.
Why me
I did not come from software. I came from sales. With Lazo Growth I recruited and trained a team of 25 students and we made more than 600 cold calls before we signed our first paying client. That taught me something simple: people do not want another tool, they want the work to be done.
So Onzaris is built that way. A schedule for every division at once. Referees assigned and replaced automatically. Standings that update themselves. Registrations that flow to the governing body without retyping.
Where it is going
Onzaris is available in every country, in French, English, Spanish and German, on the web, iOS and Android, and inside ChatGPT and Claude. The goal is that anyone running sport, anywhere, spends their time on the game and not on the admin.
