At Willow Sports Intelligence, we are evolving the most effective sports coaching and training platform in the world. 

Today, we are not just taking another step. We are making a generational leap.

This is what we've built.

Willow Sports AI v3.0

NEW: Context-Aware Standard & Pro Models

A number without context is just data. Our analysis engine was the first in the world to understand who it is coaching, and we have taken this understanding to the next level.

• The Standard Model: Calibrated for Personal Growth
  Our AI now performs a rapid visual assessment of the athlete to understand their developmental stage. It then calibrates its entire rating system relative to that specific context, providing feedback that is realistic, motivational, and laser-focused on your unique journey.
• The Pro Model: An Absolute Benchmark Against the Elite
  For those who require an unflinching, absolute standard, Pro Mode compares your mechanics directly against an optimized model of the world's best professionals. It is brutally honest and surgically precise - your tool for finding the 1% improvements that separate great from elite.

NEW: The Visual Learning Engine

Athletic mastery is, in part, a visual pursuit. The human brain is an unparalleled pattern-matching engine; we can improve the learning process by seeing, internalizing, and then replicating correct form. 

We have built something entirely new: a Visual Learning Engine that doesn't just analyze your motion, but coaches you through a guided, visual dialogue.

This single interaction is revolutionary. It transforms a static report into a dynamic, one-on-one lesson. It replicates the exact moment a human coach would pause, look at you, and say, "Here, let me show you what I mean."

Second, the AI provides a guided viewing experience. Crucially, the system doesn't just show you a video; it tells you how to watch it. The surrounding text provides the critical context, instructing you on what specific element to focus on within the video. It’s the difference between being handed a book and having a mentor read it with you, pointing out the most important passages. This ensures you extract the maximum possible value from every visual aid, internalizing the correct form with unparalleled speed and clarity.

Finally, this entire experience is powered by a truly AI-native curation engine. The video you are shown is not from a stale, internal library. It is the result of a generative act. Based on its deep understanding of your specific mechanical flaw and your sport, our AI formulates a unique semantic query and scours the entire public corpus of instructional content at that very moment. This makes our platform a living, evolving intelligence. As new coaching techniques, biomechanical insights, and innovative drills are created and shared by professionals around the world, our AI has immediate access to them. The AI is constantly learning, ensuring the guidance you receive is not just personalized, but also perpetually at the cutting edge of the sport.

This is all then tied together with our one-click integrated video replay. You read the AI’s diagnosis, click the embedded icon to receive a guided lesson on the fix, and then click "View Video" to see your own performance. This is the ultimate closed-loop system: Diagnose, Demonstrate, Guide, and Compare - all within a single, fluid interface.

NEW: The Fully Contextual AI Narrative Chat

Our AI chat is a capstone of our ecosystem. It ingests the entire original analysis, the full chat history, and the specific video drills it recommended. You can now ask, "In that hip rotation drill you showed me, what does he mean by maximum external rotation?" and it will provide a nuanced answer based on that shared visual context. It is a true coaching partner.

NEW: An Intelligent, High-Velocity Workspace

Your analysis history is now a dynamic dashboard, re-engineered for clarity and speed.

• Dynamic, AI-Generated Titles: Our AI distills the core finding of each session and automatically generates a descriptive title like "Analysis: Powerful Rotation with Early Extension."
• Instant Video Identification: A "View Video" icon now sits next to each title, allowing you to instantly play the original video without clicking into each individual report. This was a requested feature, users can now more easily identify a specific analysis.
• Unread Analysis Indicator: A simple red dot now appears next to any new analysis you haven't reviewed yet, managed instantly in your browser. This is a quick visual indicator to help users recognize a new analysis in the workspace view.

NEW: Backend Performance

The magic you see on screen is enabled by a fundamental re-architecture of our data pipeline, designed for speed and intelligence.

• Performant Uploads: Improved video upload functionality via a secure, one-time-use presigned URL, to deliver dramatically faster, more reliable uploads.
• Intelligent Pre-Processing: Your browser now calculates the video's frame rate (FPS) before the upload begins, freeing our most powerful core analysis models to dedicate their full computational power to the deepest possible analysis of your mechanics. This addition remove an entire pre-processing layer for faster analysis returns in many use cases.

Willow Sports AI v3.0 is more than an update. It is one step closer to the realization of our vision: a fully integrated, intelligent ecosystem that understands you as an athlete, communicates like a coach, and provides a direct, uninhibited path to your potential.

The future of your performance is not just coming. It is here.
