Noteefy has acquired Metolius Golf, combining demand optimization with AI-powered course data intelligence into one platform now serving about 1,500 golf courses. The deal aims to help operators manage pricing, staffing and marketing with faster, embedded analytics instead of separate systems and manual reporting.

Why it matters: - The acquisition brings demand management and data intelligence into one system for golf operators. - Noteefy and Metolius together now serve roughly 1,500 golf courses. - The combined platform is designed to help courses reduce empty tee times, improve revenue decisions and act on insights faster. - The deal targets an industry that still loses more than $1 billion a year to cancellations and no-shows.

Magazine’s 2025 Most Powerful People in Golf list. - Before Metolius, Liggett worked in golf operations and served as a marketing, sales and technology executive for several national multi-course operators. - Noteefy was founded in 2023 by Jake Gordon and Dathan Wong. - Noteefy says it is trusted by more than 1,000 golf courses globally. - The company says its customer base includes 80 of Golfweek’s Top 200 Resorts and 9 of the top 12 multi-course operators. - Noteefy is backed by Full In Partners, Powerhouse Capital, Teamworthy Ventures, Phoenix Capital Ventures, PerotJain and a syndicate of industry veterans across golf, travel and hospitality. - For more information, readers can visit the full announcement.
