Robinn

Robinn is a minimalist app that helps you to allocate a group of people into groups, for games, class groups, and so on. Compute these round-robin groups easily and optimally!

Say you're with a group of 8 golf buddies at a peaceful retreat and you plan to play 5 rounds of golf over the next few days. How would you form groups such that, as much as possible, everyone gets to play everyone else? Doing this manually can be tedious, difficult, and sub-optimal, so why not let the brain in your iPhone do it for you?

Robinn uses a near-optimal algorithm to compute the best groups to play in over some number of rounds, which is specified by you. Just type in a list of names separated by commas or any punctuation, and it'll take care of interpreting into data that it understands. Words separated by spaces will be interpreted together as a single name.

Combined with its clean, gesture-based interface, the brains of Robinn aims to help you drive away the hard math and frustration of putting people into fair, round-robin groups.
