About

Spekto

Features
Read full description

Spekto is a modern video-analysis tool for coaches and athletes in any sport. Capture, review, measure, and compare technique and share it with your whole team. CAPTURE, ALREADY TAGGED Record straight into your library and log the key moments as you film — mark a split, a jump, a rep, or a phase of play in real time, so your footage is organized before you stop recording. FRAME-PERFECT REVIEW Step through any clip one frame at a time. Draw lines and angles right on the video to break down positioning and technique with precision. COMPARE, SIDE BY SIDE Put two clips next to each other and sync them to spot the difference instantly. A before and after, two athletes, or the same move across sessions. TURN CLIPS INTO NUMBERS Measure what matters — times, splits, angles, distances — and see results ranked automatically. Your video becomes data you can track. EVERYTHING IN ONE LIBRARY Every session, tagged and searchable. Filter by athlete, drill, date, or moment to find any clip in seconds. BUILT AROUND YOUR SPORT Set up your own tags, moments, and measures for how you actually coach. Spekto adapts to your sport, not the other way around. YOUR WHOLE TEAM, IN SYNC Work offline whenever you are, everything syncs to your team the moment you're back online. Clips and notes, on every device.
