PitchPulse

PitchPulse is a mobile + web AI app that turns a single sideline smartphone recording into practical workload and intensity insights for amateur football/soccer teams. Coaches upload a 20–90 minute match or training clip; the app detects players, estimates distance covered, sprint counts, high-intensity bursts, time-on-pitch, and simple heatmaps—without wearables. It then flags potential overuse risk (e.g., sudden spike in high-intensity minutes) and suggests rotation or recovery actions based on recent sessions. This is not pro-grade optical tracking; accuracy will vary with camera angle, lighting, and crowding, and it won’t replace GPS vests for elite teams. But for youth clubs, schools, and semi-pro sides that can’t afford hardware, it offers a “good-enough” view of load trends, which is often all they need to prevent avoidable injuries and manage substitutions smarter.
