Throws AI is the first AI coach built specifically for discus throwers. Most throwers train without a real coach. You film your throws, watch them back, and guess at what's wrong. Throws AI changes that. WHAT IT DOES Film your throw. The AI breaks down your technique frame by frame, identifies what's costing you distance, and gives you a letter grade calibrated to your level — whether you're a high school freshman or a D1 thrower. You don't get generic advice. You get personal diagnostics: which leg is leaking power, which phase of the throw is rushed, what's repeatable and what's not. WHO IT'S FOR — High school throwers without a specialist coach — D2, D3, NAIA athletes whose programs lack throws-specific coaching — Post-collegiate throwers training independently — Masters throwers refining technique into their 30s, 40s, 50s+ — Anyone serious about adding distance WHAT YOU GET — Letter grade (F to A+) for every throw, calibrated to your competitive level — Specific diagnostic: which technical issue is costing you the most meters — Personalized drills written for your specific issue, not generic warm-ups — Progress tracking across the season — see your trend, not just your latest throw — Practice and meet PR tracking — Goal progress — set a target distance and see how close each throw came — Repeatability scoring — how consistent your throws are under pressure THE FOUNDER Built by Xavier Myers, a college thrower who got tired of training without real diagnostic feedback. If you've ever stood in the circle asking "what was wrong with that throw" — this is for you. PRICING Free 14-day trial. After that, monthly or annual subscription. Cancel anytime.
