AI sports analysis tools for clubs and coaches

Hudl acquired Balltime in 2025. Its volleyball AI now powers Hudl Assist film breakdowns for coaches and athletes. Uploading footage produces player touches, results, statistics and clips with dead time removed. Coaches can filter by player or rotation, then build playlists and share feedback with athletes.

Access differs by team level: club volleyball has match and practice breakdowns, while the college offering covers practice, with match analysis routed through Volleymetrics or Hudl Assist. The same page lists high school access as a waitlist. Balltime's acquisition announcement names LOVB and Division I colleges among its partnerships.

Hudl sells video review and capture tools for youth clubs, schools, colleges and professional teams. Its AI offerings include Hudl IQ for collegiate football, which pairs physical and positional data with video for recruitment, game preparation and analysis of a team's own play. IQ automatically identifies formations, routes, coverages and blitzes.

Coaches can compare players by position, examine quarterback passing maps and filter recruits by transfer portal status. The transfer portal filter updates hourly, while passing views break down throws by outcome, location and situation. Offensive line tools compare protection and running combinations against team and league averages. That product's scope is collegiate American football; Hudl lists separate products for volleyball, football scouting and other sports. The wider catalogue also includes Focus cameras, Sportscode analysis software and wearable monitoring, so the relevant package depends on the sport and workflow.

Pixellot combines AI sports cameras and analytics for clubs, schools, colleges and leagues. Its coaching software, VidSwap Analytics breaks down games into searchable actions, team and player statistics, shot charts and heat maps. Coaches can upload footage from any video source, annotate clips and share them with players or staff.

VidSwap lists a four to eight hour turnaround for detailed analysis. In January 2026, Pixellot announced $35 million in financing, comprising $15 million in equity from PSG Equity and $20 million in venture debt. Its range includes portable and installed cameras alongside the analysis software.

Spiideo sells automated cameras and cloud analysis for clubs, schools, universities and federations. Spiideo Perform lets coaches review panoramic footage, tag situations, draw on video and share presentations. Its AutoData generates event and tracking data, including live football analysis and heat maps.

The camera system needs an internet connection for recording and analysis. Spiideo names Brentford and Sweden's women's team as users, and its current customer stories include the San Antonio Spurs' practice setup. The company announced a $20 million growth round led by Cipio Partners in June 2024. Teams buy through its sales team.

Veo sells automated recording and match analysis for coaches and teams. Its AI tags events such as goals and shots before footage reaches Veo Editor, where staff can review highlights, tag players and share feedback. Recording options include Veo Cam 3 and Veo Go, which uses two iPhones.

Veo Cam 3 combines a camera purchase with a subscription. Veo Analytics 2 and livestreaming are offered as add-ons, and the quote builder separates cameras, mounting and software extras. The site features IMG Academy and Richmond Rugby staff describing their use of the system.

HUMAIN holds a controlling stake in ai.io, the company behind aiScout. The product uses AI to analyse filmed drills for clubs and scouts seeking amateur talent. Clubs set trial criteria, players record the exercises, and the system returns scores compared with the club's academy benchmarks.

The workflow includes shortlists, alerts and shared reports, with physical and technical criteria set by the club. It relies on players submitting the prescribed drills, after which clubs can invite candidates to in-person trials. The company features Chelsea, Burnley and MLS NEXT testimonials about its talent identification work.

BEPRO sells cameras, analysis and collaboration software for team coaches and analysts. Its Advanced Data service uses vision tracking to extract positions and physical metrics from video, including data for both teams without requiring GPS wearables. Outputs include expected goals, expected assists, line-breaking passes and runs behind the defence.

The service can analyse opposing players' physical output as well as the club's own squad, deriving the metrics from player positions in the footage. Analysts can download raw tracking files or create graphics that follow players and show defensive lines. The wider platform separates Standard, Advanced and Bespoke Data, with BEPRO Space for sharing and an editor for video review. Its customer examples include Larne FC and Accrington Stanley's academy. Teams can request a demo or contact sales.

Comparisonator uses machine learning for football recruitment by coaches, scouts and sporting directors.

A free trial is available.

Driblab sells football data and scouting analytics through software, APIs and consultancy. Its AI optical tracking follows 22 players and the ball, while other tools combine event and tracking data or organise scouting reports. Clients can commission match data through Capture. The site features a PSV Eindhoven chief scout testimonial and offers demos.

Hudl's Statsbomb football data service supports recruitment, tactical analysis and player evaluation for professional teams. It combines AI and pitch detection computer vision with manual validation by specialist collectors. The service covers more than 300 competitions and records over 3,400 events per match.

Analysts can use an analytics platform or APIs, with JSON, XML and CSV files also available. Models include expected goals, On-Ball Value and aerial performance analysis. Its 360 player-location data is bundled for over 40 leagues, a smaller set than the overall event database. Customer testimonials include Club Brugge and Malmö FF.

Metrica Sports sells video analysis for coaches and analysts through PlayBase for amateur and smaller clubs and Nexus for professional teams. Both combine video review with graphics and tracking tools. Coaches can create their own event feeds for live or post-match analysis, then add graphics during a session or programme them for playback in presentations to players. The software runs on Windows and Mac, and the company offers a trial without a credit card.

PlayBase Advanced costs €80 a month and includes automatic tracking and graphics that move with the footage. The €10 Essentials plan has no tracking, while the €30 Plus plan has manual tracking. Those lower tiers therefore offer different levels of automation.

Nexus Pro costs €150 a month with automatic tracking, full game analysis and telestration. The €60 Prime plan has manual tracking. The €300 Elite plan adds full clip tracking and Nexus Live, which is an add-on on lower tiers.

VANAD Group acquired SciSports in November 2024. SciSports uses AI models and optical tracking for football match analysis, scouting and player development. Its products serve coaches, analysts, scouts and youth programmes, with separate match analysis, scouting and player profile offerings.

The platform supports external video and data sources and profiles more than 225,000 professional players in its scouting service.

The acquisition announcement says SciSports works with players, clubs and federations to support team development and strategic decisions.

SkillCorner uses AI to track players and balls from a single video source for scouting, recruitment and performance analysis. It accepts broadcast, tactical and wide-angle footage across football, basketball and American football. Its coverage includes more than 150 competitions, combining tracking and event data to analyse player and team performance.

An important distinction in the data is that the system extrapolates off-camera player positions. Teams therefore receive modelled positions as well as tracking from visible action. SkillCorner's customer list includes Everton, River Plate and Orlando Magic. The company was founded in Paris in 2016.

Teamworks acquired Sportlogiq in January 2026. Its computer vision and machine learning turn gameplay video into tracking and event data for coaches and analysts. The current Teamworks hockey coaching platform links data with film for opponent preparation, team review and individual player development.

Staff can filter situations and create playlists, analyse zone entries and exits, and share annotated clips with players. The product serves professional, collegiate and junior hockey, with a sales demo route. Teamworks' acquisition announcement says Sportlogiq served 42 NCAA hockey programmes and 97% of NHL teams at the time of the deal.

Stats Perform, a Vista Equity Partners portfolio company, sells Opta Vision for football analysts examining tactics and player performance. It combines tracking and event data across more than 80 competitions, with metrics for off-ball runs, pressure, team shape and passing decisions.

The service provides raw tracking through data feeds for analysing physical output and player movement alongside on-ball events. A diffusion model generates positions for unseen players to maintain continuous tracking when they leave the picture. Human quality assurance is part of collection and synchronisation. Teams can contact the supplier to discuss access and coverage.

Catapult sells athlete monitoring with AI analytics for coaches and performance staff from youth sport to professional teams. Its Vector range combines sensor data with sport and position specific metrics, and Vector Pro links physical performance data with video analysis. The company also offers camera-based weight room monitoring through Perch P2.

The monitoring range has different indoor and outdoor capabilities: Vector Core lists outdoor GPS and indoor inertial data, while Vector Pro adds local positioning. Staff therefore need the appropriate hardware and positioning setup for their venue. Catapult supplies team pricing through a request, covering monitoring, video and other product choices.

KINEXON sells local positioning and workload analytics for team coaches and performance staff. PERFORM LPS uses ultra-wideband tracking to provide live and post-session metrics, video synchronisation and load comparisons by player role. Its fixed infrastructure supports multiple indoor sports and hybrid venues.

A typical installation requires at least 12 anchors. KINEXON also sells AI basketball shot tracking through COMPETE Vision, which records shot type, location and pressure context without wearables. That product integrates with PERFORM LPS to connect shooting analysis with physical data. The LPS page features Tennessee basketball and Stanford volleyball examples, and teams can book a demo.

Kitman Labs combines athlete health and performance data for clubs, leagues and team staff in its iP: Intelligence Platform. Its My iP reporting workspace brings together workload, readiness, medical and coaching information. The company uses Google Cloud and Gemini Enterprise in My iP to support data visualisation and automation.

Coaches can compare training with game demands, review individual responses and share dashboards across departments. My iP works with data from solutions enabled within iP, so its reporting depends on the organisation's connected modules and records. The platform lists over 150 integrations, and Kitman Labs names MLS among its clients.

Playermaker uses shoe-mounted sensors and AI to classify football touches and physical movements for players and coaches. It measures passing, shooting, foot use, distance and sprints, with results sent to an app after sessions. It works indoors and outdoors and is designed for players aged eight and above. CITYPLAY was developed with Manchester City's talent development staff.

Svexa became Zone7's parent organisation in April 2024. Zone7 uses AI for injury risk forecasting, training load management and future risk simulation for professional sports teams. Its software is designed to work across devices, using athlete performance information to support staff decisions.

The product range also includes data integrity services and research, with a demo route for organisations. Its site features Liverpool's fitness staff discussing how the AI supports their monitoring process and an LAFC load management case study. Zone7 continues to operate as a business under svexa, according to its ownership announcement.

Nex makes the HomeCourt app, which gives basketball players and coaches camera-based feedback on their skills, including shooting, ball handling and agility. It runs on iPhone or iPad without body sensors or a special basketball. Coaches can set up virtual teams, host challenges and review players' development through the team offering. HomeCourt is an official partner of the NBA, with interactive challenges featuring players including Sue Bird and Steve Nash. Ball handling and agility drills use the device's front camera.
