What Cookie does

Cookie provides a software platform for organizing event-based and club-based youth and amateur sports, serving multiple stakeholder groups including event managers, clubs, coaches, parents, and players. The platform's stated functional purpose is to coordinate scheduling, registration, and communication across these user types, though the underlying technical architecture, product feature set, and specific workflow tooling are not described in the available source material. The company's public web presence is minimal — the website (getcookie.com) presents only a basic interface with no detailed product documentation, pricing, or feature disclosures.

Cookie is a privately held, for-profit company founded in 2014 and headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina. The company operates with a small team of 1-10 employees, indicating an early-stage or lifestyle-business scale. Its only recorded funding event is a 2024 investment from Triangle Tweener Fund, a regionally focused investor in the Raleigh-Durham area, with no disclosed capital amount.

The business model is not explicitly documented in the source data: no pricing tiers, revenue model (subscription, transaction-based, freemium), customer acquisition channels, or GTM motion are described. With no disclosed revenue, ARR, or customer count, financial scale cannot be triangulated. The multi-sided user base (managers, clubs, coaches, parents, players) implies a B2B2C or B2C model serving amateur and youth sports organizers, but specific monetizable mechanics remain unstated.
