About Us
Learn about UnitedLadder!
UnitedLadder is a statistics platform dedicated to Trackmania United Forever. Our goal is to preserve and present the competitive data of the game, providing players and the community with a comprehensive, reliable, and (mostly) modern service for tracking leaderboards, player progress, and other statistics.
At its core, UnitedLadder serves as the frontend for the UnitedLadder API. This API acts as a gateway, aggregating and structuring data from various sources, including official Nadeo WebServices, the TMF Stats API, and for specific data, direct queries to the TMF Masterserver.
History
The story of UnitedLadder is one of community initiative. In early 2025, RedShadow conceived the project, approximately nine months after the silent shutdown of TM-Ladder - a service that had served the Trackmania community for over 18 years. The name "UnitedLadder" was chosen by the solohunting community in a poll hosted within the TMSH Discord server, the central hub for Trackmania Forever solo hunting. A very rough initial version was made available shortly after, marking the project's first public appearance.
Development progressed rapidly throughout January 2025. This period saw the introduction of several features, including leaderboards, player lookup pages, and a rudimental track leaderboard system.
In February 2025, wiseraven had joined the development team. This collaboration led to the first official "release" version of UnitedLadder, built on a more robust architecture achieved by a complete rewrite of the existing codebase.
Since then, UnitedLadder has not only achieved feature-parity with the original TM-Ladder but has surpassed it. The site offers a modern, user-friendly (more or less) experience with fewer technical limitations and a focus on the SP leaderboards.
As of this writing in September 2025, UnitedLadder displays virtually all publicly accessible data for Trackmania United Forever. While our primary data integration is largely complete, we remain committed to exploring any potential new data sources or significant metrics that could further enrich the experience.

Developers
UnitedLadder is maintained and developed by a team of just two individuals, who contribute their time entirely on a voluntary basis:
Wiseraven is the author of everything you see and everything you do not see. Most of the feature requests go through me, and are implemented after discussion with Red.
If you want to support the development you can donate to me with cryptocurrency or bank transfers (if you are based in Russia).
RedShadow is the one who hosts and maintains UnitedLadder & United Ascenders.
This website is made in free time and every server machine, domain name and other related thing this website uses, was paid by himself.
You can help cover the hosting and domain fees via Ko-Fi here.
Contributors
UnitedLadder is a community-driven project. Several key site and API features were directly suggested or inspired by user feedback. We acknowledge these contributors for helping shape UnitedLadder into what it is today:
Suggested many UX improvements, that made using the site less painful.
Shared the method to obtain per-player SP leaderboard data directly from the TMF Masterserver.
