Once the video has been uploaded into the platform, Sportscode provides analysts with enough flexibility within their set of features to define what code windows suit best the KPIs of their team. This is particularly important for sports where teams are spread out across the field, as focusing on a specific area of the pitch may not capture players standing outside the angle of reach.

However, the platform offers a very wide range of functionalities and features that require some time to get familiarized with before being able to effectively use it. The process is very simple: capture your video into Sportscode, code the different events that take place in the footage, evaluate the results of the relevant events captured and present the insights to coaches and athletes.

This popular platform goes as far back as 1999, when Australian coaching applications and professional services company Sportstec first launched the first version of the revolutionary video software. Sporstcode is one of the leading video analysis software in the performance analysis field today, used by thousands of analysts, coaches and athletes around the world.
