JAM Systems
Software for the FIRST® community & beyond

Adding flavor to STEM with custom‑built software

JAM Systems turns ideas into web and mobile apps that support learning, build community, and make an impact — starting with the FIRST Robotics world we grew up in.

Our Products

Built for the people who run STEM programs

Tools we designed, built, and ship ourselves — shaped by real events, real volunteers, and real teams.

Web App Beta

1st CheckPoint

Event check-in software for FIRST Robotics organizations. From check-in to season reports, all in one place.

  • Digital team check-in that replaces pen and paper
  • Season-wide impact data that adds itself up
  • Emergency contact info one tap away on event day
  • Works through shaky event wifi — entries sync when you reconnect
Mobile App iOS & Android

FIRST Nevada App

The official companion app for FIRST Nevada. Connect. Learn. Engage — every program, all in one place.

  • Combined calendar for all four FIRST programs in Nevada
  • News, announcements, and push notifications
  • Season resources, guides, and team materials
  • Live event information as it happens
Custom Work

Have an idea? We build those.

Our products started as ideas from the STEM community. If your program, event, or organization needs software that doesn't exist yet, that's exactly the kind of problem we like.

Web Apps

Fast, reliable tools that run in any browser — built to hold up under real event-day conditions, not just demos.

Mobile Apps

Cross-platform iOS and Android apps that keep your whole community informed, connected, and engaged.

Built With You

We work directly with organizers, mentors, and volunteers so the software fits how your program actually runs.

About Us

The JAM in JAM Systems

JAM stands for Jumpstart Active Minds — because that's the whole point. We believe learning sticks when minds are active: building robots, running events, solving real problems with real stakes.

We came up through FIRST Robotics, so we build for it first. We saw organizers counting attendance on paper, volunteers juggling fragmented communication, and families hunting for event information — and decided software could carry that weight instead.

Every app we make follows the same recipe: start with a real problem someone in the STEM community actually has, build it with them, and polish it until it feels like a product worth paying for. That's the flavor we add.

2 products shipped for the FIRST community
4 FIRST programs supported — FLL Explore, FLL Challenge, FTC & FRC
