About

Live, without the video.

Livebib broadcasts a run the way Twitch broadcasts a game — except there’s no camera. A broadcast is a live page: the route on a map, your position, the checkpoints ahead, and an honest estimate of when you’ll reach them. Family and friends open a link and follow along. That’s it.

The name is the point: a race bib, but alive. On the map, your position is the Livebib mark itself — a small green beacon making its way to the finish.

One runner at the centre

Livebib is person-centric. There’s no feed to scroll and no leaderboard to climb — every broadcast page is about one runner and the people who care about them. A race with checkpoints and aid-station ETAs, an everyday run shared with a few, or a training session for a coach: three kinds of broadcast, same idea.

Running first, but whole days out

Livebib started with running, and it shows. But a broadcast can carry more than a run: a bike leg, a swim leg, a ski tour. A triathlon or a swimrun plays out on one page, leg by leg, with stats that speak each sport’s language — and when it’s over, the page stays as the replay and the story of the day.

Built in Sweden, hosted in the EU

Livebib is built in Sweden and runs on European infrastructure — the servers, the storage, and the map tiles. This website sets no cookies and runs no trackers, which is why you didn’t have to click a consent banner to read this. The details are on the privacy page.

Free to watch

Watching a broadcast is free and requires no account — the person at the fence shouldn’t need a login. Broadcasting requires one: signing in works with Google or a plain email link, no password to invent.
