TRACK & FIELD AI
Phases we analyze

Every phase of sprints, broken out.

Block start

Foot placement, set position, drive angle off the blocks.

Drive phase

First 10–15 meters, hip extension, knee drive, forward lean.

Transition

Steps 10–25 where drive becomes upright sprint mechanics.

Max velocity

Upright posture, stride length, cadence, arm carriage.

Maintenance

Holding form through the finish without tightening up.

Why it's different

AI that actually understands sprints.

Generic video tools look at "a person moving." We built a model specifically around sprints, the phases, the mechanics, and the coaching language real sprints coaches use.

You upload the rep. We extract the critical frames. You get a breakdown in plain English with priority tags, what's critical, what's worth working on, what's fine.

  • Event-specific phase detection
  • Priority-tagged coaching notes (critical/important/minor)
  • Cause-and-effect frame markers
  • Follow-up AI coach chat

Common sprints mistakes

The three errors the AI flags most often.

These are the technique patterns we see over and over again across sprints athletes. Each one has a specific look on video and a specific fix.

01

Popping up too early

What it looks like

You reach full upright posture in the first 5-7 meters instead of staying angled forward through 15-20m.

Fix it

Drive-phase wall pushes and resisted sled starts to groove a lower angle for longer.

02

Overstriding on acceleration

What it looks like

Your front foot is landing ahead of your center of mass in steps 2-4, creating a braking force every step.

Fix it

Short, punchy first-step drills with a focus on foot contact behind the hips.

03

Arm carriage crossing the body

What it looks like

Your hands swing past the center line instead of front-to-back, leaking rotational energy.

Fix it

Arm-swing mirror drills and 'paint the line' focus cues at jog pace.

Real athletes

Used by sprints athletes at every level.

From freshman sprints to D1 rosters, athletes upload phone video and get the same frame-by-frame coaching read. The AI doesn't grade you, it explains what it sees, in the vocabulary a real sprints coach would use.

  • Every level, freshman to D1
  • Same AI model, same vocabulary
  • Practice reps, meet reps, warm-ups, all fair game
  • Works with any phone, any angle
Common questions

Sprints FAQ

Does it work for 100m, 200m, and 400m?
Yes. The same sprint model analyzes all three distances and adjusts its expectations for pacing, curve running, and lactate-phase mechanics.
Can I analyze block starts?
Yes, block starts are one of the strongest use cases. Dense frame sampling through the first 15m captures every drive step.
How do I film my sprint for analysis?
Landscape, side-on, 20-30 feet away, the full block-start-through-finish in frame if possible. Phone video is fine, no pro camera needed.
What common sprint form errors does the AI flag?
Early upright posture, overstriding, crossing arms, hip drop at max velocity, and head-up posture in the drive phase, among others.
Can the analysis help my 40-yard dash?
Yes. The same drive-phase and acceleration mechanics apply, though the AI is tuned for full 100m mechanics so feedback on the later phases may be more conservative.
