About SpikeScience

SpikeScience is an AI-powered volleyball training platform built for the individual player. We combine computer vision pose estimation with sports science research to deliver biomechanics analysis and personalized training programs that follow you across team changes.

No team? No coach? No problem. SpikeScience was built specifically for players who train independently, change clubs each season, or want supplemental training outside of team practice. Your analysis, training history, and progress stay with you — not your team.

Our mission is simple: give every volleyball player access to the same biomechanics analysis and personalized training that elite programs use — without the $200/hour coach.

Our Mission

To democratize elite-level volleyball training. We believe every player deserves access to biomechanics analysis, personalized programming, and data-driven feedback — regardless of their location, budget, or access to coaching.

We use the same research-backed methods that Division I college programs and national teams use, packaged into an app that costs less than a single private lesson per month.

Technology

Our analysis pipeline combines three layers of technology to deliver coach-quality feedback without the coach.

Computer Vision Pose Estimation

We use Google MediaPipe BlazePose and TensorFlow Lite models to extract 33 body landmarks from your video at 30fps. This gives us joint angles, segment velocities, and timing data — the raw material for biomechanics analysis.

Sports Science Engine

Our analysis engine compares your movement patterns against published research on elite volleyball mechanics. We identify specific breakdowns in your kinematic chain, landing mechanics, and contact patterns — then translate them into actionable training prescriptions.

Adaptive Training Programs

Your training program is not a template. It adapts based on your analysis results, position, training history, and progress. As you log sessions and upload new video, the program adjusts to target your current weaknesses and build on your strengths.

Phase Detection

We automatically segment your approach into phases (approach, jump, cocking, acceleration, contact, follow-through) using dynamic time warping against reference patterns. This lets us analyze each phase independently and identify exactly where power is lost.

Injury Risk Analytics

Our injury risk module flags high-risk landing patterns (knee valgus, stiff-knee landing, asymmetric contact) and correlates them with your training load to surface actionable injury prevention recommendations before they become injuries.

Cross-Platform Sync

Your data syncs across web, iOS, and offline modes. Upload video on your phone, review analysis on your laptop, and log workouts even without internet — everything syncs when you reconnect.

Company History

2024

Founded

SpikeScience was founded to bring professional-grade volleyball biomechanics analysis to individual players at every level.

2024

AI Biomechanics Engine

Developed a computer vision pipeline that maps joint angles, kinematic sequences, and jump mechanics from standard phone video — no special cameras or markers required.

2025

PRISM Score System

Introduced the PRISM score, a composite metric across 7 biomechanical dimensions that gives players an objective measure of their movement quality.

2025

Personalized Training Programs

Launched AI-generated, position-specific training programs that target each player's identified biomechanical deficiencies with 500+ exercises.

2025

Workout Calendar

Added a full monthly workout calendar that schedules training sessions, tracks completion, and adapts as players progress — the only AI volleyball app with this feature.

2026

Injury Risk Screening

Released automated screening for the four high-risk landing patterns that predict ACL injuries, with neuromuscular training recommendations.

2026

Recruiting Profiles

Built recruiting profile tools that let players share verified biomechanics data and PRISM scores directly with college coaches.

What Sets SpikeScience Apart

SpikeScience is differentiated by three capabilities that no other AI volleyball platform offers together:

Personalized Program from AI Analysis

The AI does not just analyze your video — it builds a complete workout program from the results. If your analysis shows poor hip-shoulder separation, your program includes the specific hip mobility and rotational power exercises to fix it. Other apps stop at analysis or rep counting.

Full Training Calendar

SpikeScience is the only AI volleyball app that includes a monthly workout calendar. You see exactly what to train each day, track completed sessions, and follow a periodized schedule — not just a list of exercises.

Built for the Individual Player

No team, no coach, no club license required. Your training history and progress tracking stay with you across team changes. This is fundamentally different from Hudl, VolleyMetrics, and TeamSnap, which are built for teams and organizations.
