Athlytics turns a phone into a full football stat crew. Built by a high school coach for the sideline, Athlytics captures a complete box score live during the game — one-handed, in a few taps per play, even with cold hands and no signal. LIVE CAPTURE Log every play as it happens. Offense, defense, and special teams. Big, thumb-sized buttons and a running play-by-play feed, so you can log a snap without looking down for long. BUILT FOR HOW FOOTBALL ACTUALLY WORKS Down, distance, and field position advance automatically. Turnovers and scores flip possession on their own. Every player is credited from a single entry — one completion credits the quarterback and the receiver at once. WORKS WITH NO SIGNAL Stadiums have bad service. Athlytics captures everything on the device and syncs when you're back online. Nothing is lost if the app closes mid-game. FULL BOX SCORE Passing, rushing, receiving, defense, and special teams. Break stats down by quarter, half, or full game, and by offense, defense, or the whole team. SHAREABLE GAME REPORTS Generate a clean PDF game report and send it wherever you need — staff, players, or families. FIX MISTAKES FAST Undo the last play with one tap, or edit any earlier play. Stats recalculate instantly. MULTIPLE TEAMS Keep separate rosters and game histories for varsity, JV, and freshman. NOTE ON ACCESS Athlytics is currently in a limited release for invited programs. An access code is required to create an account. If your program is interested, contact us through the support link.
