SWIM. WATCH. FIX. REPEAT The most important part of the stroke happens underwater — and from the deck, you can't see it. Athlee gives you live video on your iPad, with adjustable delay so swimmers can watch themselves seconds after swimming. HOW IT WORKS Set up in 60 seconds. Stream wirelessly from one or more cameras to your iPad. Swimmers see themselves with 5–60 seconds of delay, while the movement is still fresh. You coach from what you both can see, not from what you're trying to describe. LIVE STREAMING Stream up to 4 cameras simultaneously on one iPad. Use the quad-screen view to show the same sequence at staggered delays, or view multiple angles side by side. Zoom and pan on any camera. Use your iPad's built-in camera when you don't have your Athlee camera. Perfect for starts, dryland, or travel. ANALYSIS TOOLS Slow motion and frame-by-frame playback. Measure angles and timing. Draw directly on video. Record voice-over feedback. Compare recordings side-by-side in split-screen mode. Every tool works at frame-level precision. BUILT FOR DAILY COACHING Most technical improvements — about 80% — are discovered through underwater viewing. Athlee exists to make that viewing effortless enough for every practice, not just occasional video days. 500+ teams across 25+ countries use it daily. TESTIMONIALS David Marsh (50+ Olympians coached, Cal Bears): "I know a lot more about swimming now after watching more underwater videos this past year than I have in my entire career... The key to Athlee is that it is so easy to set up compared to GoPro. It has been a game-changer." Mel Marshall (Adam Peaty's coach, Aquatics GB): "I honestly think every club should have one of these. It's such an easy tool, and it makes such a difference." Braden Holloway (NC State University): "When we had the other camera system, it would be a pain to set them up. Now with Athlee we'll just go get them and … boom." The official app for the Athlee camera system.
