THE OPEN STANDARD

We don't hide our math behind a black box. The Pickleball Standard Rating (PSR) is a transparent calculation of your skill probability.

Rating Scale

OnePSR is a conservative rating. We calculate your proven skill floor, not just your average.

PSR DESCRIPTION
4500+ Pro
4000 - 4499 Expert
3500 - 3999 Advanced
3000 - 3499 High Intermediate
2500 - 2999 Intermediate
1800 - 2499 Novice
0 - 1799 Newbie

The Algorithm

Unlike other apps that use a "black box," OnePSR relies on a transparent Bayesian Inference System. We analyze two key factors to determine your rating:

Perceived Skill
(Skill Estimate)
Uncertainty
(Confidence Level)
PSR
Official Rating

Why this matters: A new player starts with high "Uncertainty." As you play more matches, the system becomes more confident in your data, refining your PSR to reflect your true consistency—not just a lucky winning streak.

Does the score matter?

Yes. Unlike basic win/loss counters, our algorithm considers the Margin of Victory.

  • Performance Weights:
    Decisive victories (blowouts) reward slightly more rating points than close matches, rewarding dominance.
  • High-Tier Logic:
    Once players reach the 3500+ average, score incentives are capped. This prioritizes match strategy and the "W" over point-farming, reflecting the tighter competition in advanced play.
Calibration Phase

Your first 30 matches are critical. During this "Calibration Phase," your rating is more volatile, allowing the system to quickly move you to your correct skill bracket.
