From the team at The Connected Rider
Feed charts, farrier visits, health records, weather alerts, lessons and training, show schedules, your barn family — and a used-tack marketplace. One app, built by horse people, for horse people.

Why you'll wonder how you managed without it
You know the feeling — you check your phone at 10 pm and the temperature dropped fifteen degrees more than the morning forecast said. Now you're driving to the barn in your pajamas.
Weather Watch monitors the forecast at your barn's location and alerts you before it matters. Set your own parameters — the blanket temp for your horses, rain chance, high heat, wind — and the app taps you on the shoulder while there's still daylight to do something about it.
Coggins renewals, dental floats, vaccines, worming — the stuff that's easy to forget until the show office or your hauler asks for it. Connected Rider keeps every document attached to the horse it belongs to and reminds you before anything lapses, not after.
When someone needs proof, it's on your phone in two taps — not in a folder at home, not in an email from your vet last spring.
Vet, farrier, bodywork, dentist, lessons, hauling — right now that schedule lives across six text threads and a feed-room whiteboard. Put it all on one calendar and book those appointments with each provider right through the app.
They confirm with a simple text link — no account needed on their end — and everyone involved gets reminders automatically. No more "wait, the farrier was today?"
You adjusted Pepper's supplements on Tuesday. Did Saturday's stable hand get the memo? With feed, hay, and supplement stacks per horse, whoever is feeding sees exactly what to scoop, today — updated the second you change it.
No sticky notes falling off stall doors. No "I fed what the whiteboard said." Every horse gets fed right, no matter who's working.
Stable hands clock in and out right in the app, verified by GPS at your barn. Pasture turn-out and bring-in are time-stamped as they happen — and your boarders see exactly when their horse went out and came back in, without texting you to ask. Fewer "did Dusty get out today?" messages, more trust.
When payday comes, export payroll straight from the time stamps — hours already totaled, no deciphering a paper timesheet from someone's truck dashboard.
Connected Rider is a complete training and lesson management app, too. Schedule lessons with your students the same way you book the vet — set the time in-app, they confirm, everyone gets reminded. Then log the ride, so progress lives in writing instead of in your memory of last Tuesday.
And because barns should be fun: barn trivia is on the way — play from our ready-made question sets or create your own for your students and barn family. That module isn't finished yet, but it's coming.
"Anyone know a good saddle fitter near…?" — you've typed it, you've answered it. Connected Rider's services directory puts vets, farriers, saddle fitters, bodyworkers, dentists, trainers, haulers, horse sitters, and more in one searchable place, filtered by what actually matters: who travels to your barn, who's accepting new clients, and who other riders vouch for.
Found the right pro? Request the appointment right in the app — they confirm by text, it lands on your calendar, done.
And that's just the start
Your staff opens the app and sees today's chores, feed board, and turnout list — nothing they don't need. You stop repeating yourself; they stop guessing.
Upload your boarding agreement, liability waiver, and barn rules — boarders sign right in the app, and you see exactly who has and who hasn't. No paper chase, no "I never got that."
Track cycles, breeding dates, vet checks, and foaling countdowns so you're prepared for the 2 am night instead of surprised by it.
Entries, schedules, results, and packing lists in one place — so show morning starts with coffee, not a scavenger hunt for your number.
Vitals, treatments, and training notes build a real history — so when the vet asks "when did this start?", you actually know.
Share milestones and training wins with people who know why a first flying change is a big deal — because they ride too.
Buy and sell tack with real riders in a real community — not strangers haggling on a classifieds site.
Never discover you're out of shavings on a Sunday. Reorder on a schedule you set — or let the app learn how often you actually run out and nudge you before you do.
Leaving town? Export stall cards, feeding, and turnout schedules in one tap — a binder's worth of instructions your sitter can actually follow.
It's the question every horse owner carries and almost no one writes down: who will care for your horses when the time comes?
We're building a place to record your wishes — who steps in, how each horse is cared for, what they need to know — so the people you trust aren't left guessing, and your horses are never left in limbo. It's not ready yet, but it matters too much not to build.
Who it's for
Every record, reminder, and receipt for your horse in one place — whether you keep them at home or board out.
Feed boards, staff roles, service scheduling, and owner updates without the 47-message group chat.
See your horse's care in real time, message the barn, and never miss a farrier day or a Coggins renewal again.

Yes — Connected Rider runs in your phone's browser and installs to your home screen like a regular app, on both iPhone and Android. No app store required.
That's the point. Barn groups let owners, trainers, boarders, and staff share one barn with roles that control what each person can see and do.
Your records are yours. You choose what's shared with your barn and what's posted to the community — everything else stays private to your account.
