How We Work

A partnership, not a subscription.

Every engagement starts with understanding your requirements in detail. We don't do one-size-fits-all.

01

Discovery Call

We understand your use case, data schema requirements, volume, format preferences, and delivery timeline. No templates — every engagement starts from your specific requirements.

02

Custom Scoping

We propose a tailored annotation workflow, team structure, and QA framework designed for your specific sport and data type. You review and approve before anything starts.

03

Pilot Delivery

We deliver a sample dataset so you can validate quality, schema alignment, and accuracy before committing to full production. Zero risk, full visibility.

04

Full Production

Our expert team begins full-scale annotation with continuous QA checks, accuracy monitoring, and a dedicated project manager keeping you updated every step.

05

Ongoing Partnership

We grow with your needs. Add new sports, increase volume, refine schemas, or expand scope — your dedicated team scales with you, not against you.

Our Services

End-to-end sports data,
managed entirely by us.

Seven annotation disciplines. One managed team. Your schema, your format, your pipeline.

Who We Serve

Four segments, one precision standard.

Your model quality starts with data quality — regardless of which segment you build for.

Automated Camera & Tracking Providers
ATracking Systems

Automated Camera & Tracking Providers

Your models process thousands of hours of footage weekly. Generic vendors break on player overlap, occlusion, and rapid movement — sports-trained annotators don't.

Sports Analytics & Athlete Performance Platforms

Bounding boxes won't train a biomechanics model. Your systems need 22-point skeletal precision — annotation depth most vendors cannot deliver.

What sets our team apart

Real-time annotation, 24/7

Our global team covers live events around the clock, across all time zones — so your data is ready when the final whistle blows.

Domain expertise, not automation

Every data point is reviewed by annotators who know the sport. We catch what algorithms miss — contested calls, context, nuance.

Custom schemas, your format

We deliver in the format your system expects — JSON, CSV, XML, direct database feeds, FTP, or API. No transformation work on your side.

Multi-language coverage

Sports happen everywhere. Our annotators cover events in multiple languages and regional contexts — European leagues, Asian markets, and beyond.
