Discover the journey
The spark
Experience shaped
the ambition.
During his fighting career, and even more throughout his years as a coach, he imagined a better way to measure performance, track improvement and create exciting competitions between fighters.
The idea existed long before the technology was ready.

From vision to development
Turning an Idea
Into Reality
After years of experience in martial arts, Dennis began studying electronics, sensors, Bluetooth technology, software engineering and blockchain.
Through independent development, testing and countless hours of experimentation, the FightNode ecosystem began taking shape.

Built to make progress visible.
FightNodePad and FightNodeBag are designed to measure striking performance, including:
- Maximum hit score (FP)
- Average hit score (FP)
- Total accumulated score (FP)
- Number of strikes
- Training history and progress
- Competitive leaderboards
The FightNode app connects the physical equipment with digital training data, video-supported performance review and competitive rankings.
FP is a FightNode training score, not a validated measurement in newtons or kilograms. Comparisons depend on the equipment and setup.
One community. Worldwide.
More Than a Training Device
FightNode aims to create a global martial arts ecosystem where fighters can compete regardless of geographical location.
A fighter training in Denmark could compete against another fighter in Thailand, Japan, Brazil or the United States.
The ambition is to connect gyms through consistent measurement protocols, video-supported review and digital rankings. Cross-device comparability still requires reference measurements and validation.
The immediate priority is reliable training feedback and repeatable gym pilots. Digital rewards and MartialX remain longer-term concepts.

The long-term vision
From local training
to connected competition.
The ambition is to bring fighters and gyms together through national, European and international challenges. Reliable equipment, clear rules and validated comparisons are the foundation for that journey.
Today, the focus is on improving the product through practical testing and building a repeatable experience for coaches and fighters.
