The problem

Why ranking programs is hard

By February, every interview blurs together. Twelve programs, three spreadsheets, a notes app full of half-sentences, and a rank list built on gut feeling.

Gut feeling isn't a strategy. Matchly gives you one.

How it works

Four steps.
One rank list.

01 · Organize

Your whole season
in one place.

Add every program, interview date and signal. Calendar sync keeps interview day on your schedule, and the dashboard tells you what needs attention next.

    “Match season asks a lot of you: dozens of programs, back-to-back interviews, and one list that shapes the next chapter of your career. Every applicant deserves a clear, organized way to decide where they’ll train. That’s why I built Matchly.”

    A tip from Dr. León

    One question I always recommend asking: “What would your residents change about this program?” The answer tells you more than any brochure.

    FAQ

    Questions,
    answered.

    Who is Matchly for?

    Medical students, international medical graduates (IMGs) and residents applying to residency or fellowship. If you have programs to keep track of and a rank list to build, Matchly is for you.

    How does Matchly calculate my rank list?

    After each interview, you answer the same questionnaire for that program, rating each item from 1 to 5. Matchly turns those answers into a score and sorts your programs from highest to lowest. You can still reorder anything by hand.

    Do I have to set section weights?

    No. Section weights are optional. If you want certain sections to count more, you can adjust them. Otherwise, every section counts equally.

    Can I change the questions?

    Yes. Start with the built-in questionnaire, then customize it so it reflects what matters to you.

    Does Matchly submit my rank list to the NRMP?

    No. Matchly is an organizational tool. You still certify your rank list through the NRMP. Matchly is not affiliated with or endorsed by the NRMP, AAMC, ERAS or any program.

    Where is my data stored?

    Your programs, scores and notes are backed up and synced to your account. Voice memo recordings and their transcripts stay on your device. Read the full Privacy Policy.

    Is Matchly a subscription?

    No. Matchly is a paid app: you pay once on the App Store.
