PRISMA

FTC platform for sharing resources, mentorship and global team collaboration.

PRISMA is the platform built for the global FIRST Tech Challenge community. Created by an FTC team who lived the problem firsthand, PRISMA was designed to solve something real: knowledge that disappears at the end of every season, resources scattered across dozens of platforms, and a community with enormous potential for collaboration that had no real infrastructure to support it.

At its core, PRISMA is a structured, searchable library of FTC knowledge. Teams can upload and discover CAD files, autonomous and TeleOp code, engineering notebook templates, and competition strategy breakdowns. Every resource is tagged by season, category, and robot subsystem. Every upload comes with documentation from the team behind it, turning a simple file share into a genuine knowledge transfer. Resources on PRISMA accumulate season after season, building a permanent foundation that every future team can learn from.

PRISMA is also a communication and mentorship platform. Experienced teams engage with the community directly, answering questions, giving feedback, and sharing the reasoning behind their work. For developing teams, this means access to guidance that was previously hard to find, while for veteran teams, it is a form of legacy. The insight you share today continues to reach new teams long after your season ends.

Beyond mentorship, PRISMA enables real collaboration between teams across the world. Geography is no longer a barrier and this is what a truly global FTC community looks like.

PRISMA also features the Ambassador Program, a select community of teams recognized for their contributions, professionalism, and commitment to the FTC ecosystem. Ambassadors shape the platform, mentor others, and represent the standard the community is built on.

No team should have to start from zero, and PRISMA is where FTC knowledge lives, grows, and travels forward. PRISMA - Where ideas refract.
