Message to all the sports enthusiasts out there from Saad, Co-Founder and CEO of Sports Vector.
Saad
Co-Founder & CEO, Sports Vector
We're a young and energetic team on a mission to transform sports strategy and analytics. We exist to make an ecosystem of sports products encompassing deep tech that includes machine learning strategy recommendations, computer vision to detect granular and fragmented sports data points which are usually not measured or get missed, algorithms to form player rankings and more. Moreover, converting all of those insights into strategic decisions.
In essence, a portion of what we do is inspired by the movie Moneyball and Billy Beane, one of my all-time movies. We want to have teams, coaches, players and federations maximize its data intelligence layer and then run those through our deep tech layers to make the best decisions possible.
Our cricket vertical, Crictier, enables this through 3 products:
Crictier Planner allows teams to plan pre-game strategies and get recommendations from AI through scorecard data-fed context (in addition to fine tuned AI models). Planner also allows teams to analyze their data, organize teams on one interface, and send specific team strategies through a link, player-side platform, or mobile app, so players have utmost clarity on what to do during the game. Crictier Strat, our in-game platform, allows teams to tag ball-by-ball data as the match is going on and see visuals to adjust strategies in-game and not post-game. At higher plans, teams get their videos clipped to each ball, and our computer vision does nearly all of the labelling automatically. Finally, we have Crictier X, our largest repository of data where franchise teams, broadcasters, and analysts can analyze gameplays and players, compare players using compare mode, create match plans, get commentator slides and so much more. This product has been the most sought after by our franchise users and it is something truly incredible. It also consists of field/pitch recommenders and so much more.
In terms of wider sports technologies, we've built three products: Vector Connect, Vector Vision, and Vector Academy.
Vector Connect
Vector Connect allows fitness coaches and physiotherapists to take all the fitness data from players and visualize it all in one place and down the line, understand the why behind trends and metrics. As of now, the product supports WHOOP but by Q4 the idea is to integrate all wearables including Google, Oura and more to ensure our analysis and segmentation is accessible and covers as many wearable technologies as possible.
Vector Vision
Vector Vision is our AI-powered computer vision and biomechanics platform that transforms a regular phone camera into a sports intelligence system capable of analyzing athlete movement frame-by-frame. Athletes can record or upload training footage and receive near instant feedback including pose tracking, bio-mechanical measurements, phase-by-phase technique analysis and AI-generated coaching insights across sports such as cricket, tennis, golf, football and padel. The goal of Vector Vision is to democratize elite-level sports analysis by removing the need for expensive motion capture labs, specialist infrastructure, or delayed coaching feedback, ultimately allowing athletes, coaches and academies to access real-time performance intelligence and continuously improve through data-driven training.
Vector Academy
Vector Academy is our operating system for sports academies. It's designed to connect performance tracking, communication, attendance, player development and general operations into one platform. Most academies today function through scattered spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, attendance sheets and disconnected tools. This makes it difficult to track player progress, manage parents, monitor payments and make data-driven decisions. Vector Academy solves this by giving coaches, academy owners, analysts, players and parents a centralized system where everything from training schedules and attendance to athlete development and communication workflows exists in one place. The platform is built specifically for the realities of sports academies and aims to replace fragmented operations with structured workflows, real-time visibility and intelligent insights that help academies run more efficiently while improving the athlete development experience for everyone involved.
Keep following us for our activities, as we continue to build the future of sports strategy and analytics all through one ecosystem.
Sports Vector is building connected tools across cricket strategy, wearable data, video intelligence and academy operations.
