The journey towards building this cutting edge automated video analytics software for rugby began in 2020. RugbySmarts co-founder and CTO William Johnstone was working with Connacht Rugby and Corinthians RFC and discovered that the current process for video analysis is manual, extremely time consuming and very laborious for rugby coaches.
After spending countless hours coding, analysing and editing matches to help improve the performance of the teams he worked with, William was inspired to apply his knowledge of artificial intelligence (AI) and video manipulation to develop a better way. Once the concept was proved he approached Yvonne Comer, former Ireland international rugby player, to come on board as co-founder & CEO to create an organisation that transforms and revolutionise the video analytics landscape.
RugbySmarts is a game changer - by using the power of computer vision and artificial intelligence we detect all the key game-level events so rugby coaches can focus on analysis and coaching.
