Unlock competitive advantage in your performance data

We're helping elite sport redefine the game with smarter, faster decisions.

Technology built for those who push boundaries

Innovation isn't just about keeping pace, it's about pushing what's possible, forward. We make sure your data does this too.

OctoATHLETE is a first-to-market collective intelligence system built specifically to help elite sports:

1

See big picture performance in fragmented data

Spot what may ordinarily be missed

Remove analysis and decision-making bottlenecks by correlating biometrics, wellness, historical data, game models, and existing hardware such as strength equipment, GPS and LiDAR to form a real-time contextual picture of your entire organisation.

2

Make smarter, faster decisions in real-time

The right intelligence at the right time

Surface hidden patterns, risks, and opportunities from this combined view. Acting as your 24/7 analyst, OctoAthlete is smart enough to give specific context to the right person, meaning the correct specialist has all the information they need to take action.

3

Enhance & fully utilise your existing team

Keeping a ‘human in the loop’

Augment your existing tech and staff infrastructure without costly changes or training. Specialists teach the system what matters by simply interacting, while chat-based communication helps them understand exactly what their next-best-action should be.

4

Create a long term plan for competitive advantage

Evolving technology, unique to your goals

In an ideal world, what would your data do? OctoATHLETE will grow with your innovation policy long-term, eventually informing pathways for recruitment, game modelling, asset development, mapping, milestones and whatever else you dream up.

Think smarter with real-time collective intelligence

OctoATHLETE enables entire organisations - not just data scientists - to spot ordinarily hidden nuance by turning siloed data into real-time, team-wide intelligence. It does this in a way that provides detailed context to specialists but allows everyone to take immediate action based on big picture thinking.

Crystal clear insight, instantly

OCTOATHLETE is a collaborative intelligence platform that keeps a human in the loop. We combine raw performance data with a platform that learns as you go through voicenotes and chat, keeping interactions as natural as a conversation. This means that staff spend less time on analysing dashboards and more time focussed on action.

An industry-first combination of capabilities to make innovation your competitive edge

AI chat with data

Ask specific questions, get real insight

Skip the spreadsheets and get direct answers from your data by using a simple, chat-based interface.

  • Get real-time answers – Type questions like “Who’s showing signs of fatigue?”
  • Understand sport-specific terms – AI recognises training, medical, and tactical terminology.
  • Get role-specific insights – Responses tailored to staff expertise and responsibilities.
voice-capture intelligence

Just speak. We do the rest.

Record voicenotes instead of manually entering data, making it easier to capture real-time observations and specialist insights.

  • No more typing or form fills – Speak instead of typing to capture key details on the go.
  • Structure and analyse – Automatically transcribe and organise input for easy reference.
AI intelligence engine

Your 24/7 digital analyst

Combine raw performance data with expert insights to generate unique, actionable intelligence. AI continuously learns, surfacing key insights without manual effort.

  • Monitor stress and workload with a wear and tear score.
  • Assess physical readiness using strength scores.
  • Compare training loads with an intensity score.
  • Predict performance based on multi-source data.
historical injury data integration

Use past injuries to reduce future risk

Turn injury history into predictive insights that help optimise training, manage recovery, and reduce re-injury risk.

  • Automate data collection – Injury records are structured and categorised for easy reference.
  • Identify risk factors – AI detects patterns based on position, age, and injury history.
  • Predict return-to-play timelines – Get data-driven estimates based on similar cases.
GPS Data integration

Turn GPS tracking into key metrics

Manage player workload and intensity more effectively by converting GPS training data into clear, decision-ready intelligence.

  • Visualise key metrics – See the most relevant GPS data for each player.
  • Monitor intensity levels – Compare workloads with an automated intensity score.
  • Link data sources – Correlate GPS data with injury risk and strength metrics.
  • Spot trends early – Identify risks before they become problems.
Physical, Strength & wellness data

Multi-source physical performance data

Convert complex strength and conditioning data into clear insights on injury risk, player readiness, and physical development.

  • View strength profiles – See key strength metrics in a simple, visual format.
  • Track conditioning scores – Compare athletes against positional benchmarks.
  • Highlight weaknesses – Identify imbalances or areas that need attention.
  • Connect performance data – Link strength metrics with GPS and assessment data for deeper analysis.
