About FAIRWAYiQ
FAIRWAYiQ is redefining how golf courses operate using AI and automation. Our platform connects facilities and players through intelligent on-course management that improves pace of play, protects the turn, and enhances the player experience.
We’re at the early stages of building the golf course operating system — connecting carts, players, data, and staff into a single platform that provides real-time insights and automates key operational workflows.
We have proven technology, a loyal customer base, and a significant opportunity to modernize how golf courses operate.
