Sleep through the night. Wake up for the goals.
Clutch Alarm is a sports alarm app that monitors live football and basketball matches overnight, alerting users only when critical moments occur. Designed for fans who cannot stay awake for every game, it analyzes on-field drama metrics to decide when to wake you. Its core value is simple: sleep through quiet periods, wake up for stoppage-time thrillers, comebacks, and history in the making. The app is free on iPhone with iOS 17+, supporting twelve leagues and zero spoilers. It uses a Drama Engine that scores each match 0–10 based on closeness, momentum, late goals, penalties, and stakes. This ensures that users never miss the moments that define sport.
Many sports fans live in time zones where their favorite teams play in the middle of the night, forcing them to choose between sleep and witnessing history. Traditional push notifications either spam every goal or provide no meaningful filter, leading to either missed moments or constant phone buzzes. Clutch Alarm solves this by using a proprietary Drama Engine that assigns every live match a 0–10 drama score based on closeness, momentum, late goals, red cards, penalties, upsets, and championship stakes. Users set a threshold or enable specific triggers like Drama Radar or Late Drama, and only when conditions are met does the app fire a loud alarm that bypasses silent mode and Do Not Disturb. This means fans get the adrenaline of a live comeback without staying awake for 90 minutes of uneventful play.
The Drama Engine is the core feature that distills multiple match dynamics into a single 0–10 score. It continuously calculates components like closeness of the score, momentum swings, late goals, red cards, penalties, and the stakes of the competition, such as World Championship knockout rounds. Users can set a personal threshold—for example, only get woken if drama reaches 8.0 or higher. This ensures that casual games are ignored while truly unforgettable moments trigger the alarm. The drama score updates in real time, and the engine also factors in "Late Drama" for tight games in the closing minutes. By using this intelligent scoring system, fans avoid information overload and receive only the most meaningful alerts, preserving both sleep and excitement.
The Live Depth feature gives users full transparency into why a match reached its drama score. When an alert fires, users can tap into a detailed view showing per-minute momentum charts, expected goals (xG), live win probability with real-time swing, a drama timeline, and a ball tracker that maps the action across the pitch. This turns the alarm into an information-rich experience—you don't just know something happened, you understand the how and why. For example, you see a momentum surge from a red card or a penalty that spiked the drama. This depth is especially useful for fans following multiple matches or leagues, as it provides context for each alert without requiring them to watch the entire game.
