RoundFlow
A flowing tool for competitive debate

Flow the round like
you're actually in it.

Pick your format and RoundFlow lays out the speech columns for you. Give every argument its own card, link your responses back to what they're answering, and you end up with a flow you can actually read afterward — not a page of arrows and cramped handwriting.

No account or install — it just runs in your browser.
The board

Every speech gets a column. Every argument gets its own card.

Pick your format and the speech sequence is already laid out — no building columns yourself, no counting speeches on your fingers. Cards stack instead of rows, so a one-line tagline doesn't eat the same space as a three-paragraph rebuttal.

Any card can link to any other card on the board — extend it, turn it, cross-apply it, whatever you need — and RoundFlow draws the connection for you. Group related cards into a bundle, tuck a sub-point under a card for a specific piece of evidence, or just hit Respond → and your reply lands in the next column, already linked back to what it's answering.

Each format has its own guide — the exact speech order, prep time, and a walkthrough of how to flow that format specifically.

The preflow

Write your case once. Use it all day.

Preflow uses the same board and the same columns as the round itself, just filled in ahead of time. Plan your case, write out your frontlines, and drop anticipated answers right where they'll end up once the round actually starts.

Set up a tournament and every round in it shares that same Preflow page. Update something from Round 3 and Round 1 has it too, because it's genuinely the same page — you're not copying changes across five different flows by hand.

My flows

Every round you've ever flowed, in one place.

Save a standalone flow for a one-off round, or set up a tournament that groups rounds under a shared Preflow — either way it lands in the same searchable library. Search by name or tournament, jump back into any round, and clear out old ones once the season's over.

Color by side, or by card

Every format starts with its own two side colors, and you can change them whenever you want. Any individual card can also override its color on its own — useful for flagging something like a dropped argument mid-round.

Copy a sheet, not just a flow

Copy your whole flow if you're handing off a device, or copy just one sheet — your case, not your opponent's — if you're sending it to a teammate. Paste whichever one into Import and RoundFlow figures out what you gave it.

Print-ready, either theme

Dark by default, but light mode got just as much attention. Either way, hitting Print strips out the interface and leaves you with a clean flow on paper.

Try it before your next round.

It's free right now, saves straight to your browser, and there's nothing to install. Accounts, real-time co-editing, and shareable links are coming next.
