The miss is the last link.
We measure the whole chain.

Rolling over, losing the zone, late on speed: what you see is the end of a chain that starts at the feet. From one phone video NextPlay tracks 33 body landmarks on every frame, splits the rep into its phases, takes 12 to 14 measurements, and a coach names the link that is actually leaking. Within 24 hours. Estimates say EST.

$99, screened before payment. Your video is checked at upload. If it cannot be analyzed, you are never charged.

Pro teams don't guess.
They measure.

Markerless body tracking is standard equipment in professional baseball now. Front offices grade mechanics with kinematics, not opinions. NextPlay uses the same class of tools professional teams use, and the team behind it works with professional athletes and professional coaches today. Names stay private. Your player gets measured the way pro players get measured, for the price of one lesson.

Tracked like the pros Graded by kinematics From one phone video

Two reports. One standard.

Each discipline gets its own analysis, its own measurements, and its own page. Pick the one your player needs.

The video becomes evidence

The same body tracking runs on every frame you send. Angles you can check with your own eyes, not opinions from the fence.

Hitting: contact frame, tracked and measured
Annotated pitching frame with tracked skeleton and joint angles
Pitching: release frame, tracked and measured

The report is what you get

The measurements show what happened. The coach turns them into one finding, argued from the numbers. Every page you see here comes from the same $99 report.

NextPlay report page with annotated swing frames

Produced from a demonstration video by the exact pipeline your order runs through. Rotation speeds and other depth dependent values are marked EST in every report, because an honest measurement is the foundation of the plan.

How it works, in three steps

No sensors, lab, or subscription. One phone video starts the process.

A swing filmed from the side with the tracking overlay

1. Film one rep

Side view, 15 to 20 feet away, landscape, the whole body in frame. Cage, field, or driveway all work.

Best light: daytime or bright cage lights. Send the original file, not a messaging app copy.

2. Tell us the problem

Weak ground balls. Loses the zone in inning two. Late on decent speed. Your words aim the whole analysis.

We check your video quality before you pay. If we cannot analyze it, you get a specific reshoot instruction instead of a charge.

3. The report lands within 24 hours

The engine measures, Coach Joel A. reads the numbers, names the leak and signs the report. The PDF and your tracking video arrive by email.

Questions about the report are answered by the coach who signed it for 14 days. Just reply to the email.

Coach Raines is the face of NextPlay in its videos. He explains the method. The person who reads your measurements, edits the findings and signs your report is Coach Joel A., and his name is on the cover of every one. No report ships unreviewed: the engine measures, the coach reads it, edits it, and puts his name behind it.

“I read every rep the way I read pro video. Measure first, then coach. If the numbers don't support a fix, it does not go in your report.”

From the people already using it

Shared with permission. Names private, same as our client work.

“I get handed forty kids every spring and two eyes to evaluate them with. NextPlay gives me numbers on every swing before I have ever run a practice. The reports read like something our college guys bring back from their programs, except a parent can understand them. It has changed how I run my first two weeks.”

High school coach

“I have been teaching hitting for years and I can see a leak in two swings. What I could not do was prove it to a parent. Now I send them a NextPlay report and the argument is over, the number says what I have been saying. My lessons got easier the day my clients started showing up with these.”

Private hitting coach

“During the season everything about my delivery gets measured, and in the offseason I used to go blind. This is the same kind of kinematic read I get at the facility, off my phone, in two days. It is honest about what it can and cannot measure, which is exactly why I trust it.”

What we measure. What we won't pretend.

The same body tracking approach professional organizations use, from one phone video. It has limits, and we put both in writing.

Measured, in your video

Distances, angles, and timing are read directly from the tracked body, relative to body height, so they stay honest at any camera distance.

Estimates say so

Anything that needs depth a single camera cannot see, like rotation speeds, is marked EST on its own row. Read the trend across sessions, not the decimal.

No invented numbers

No ball speed, no exit velocity, no spin claims from a phone clip. If a number is not in your video, it is not in your report.

One report. One price.

$99, one time. No subscription, no package to pick, nothing to install. You send one video, you get the report.

Questions parents ask

What video do I need?

One clip of one rep, filmed from the side, 15 to 20 feet away, landscape, with the whole body in frame the entire time. Daylight or bright cage light. Send the original file from your camera roll. That is it.

What if my video can't be analyzed?

We check quality the moment you upload, before any charge. If the tracking will not hold up, you get a specific instruction for the reshoot instead of a charge. If we accept a video and the analysis still fails, we redo it free or refund you in full.

Who actually writes the report?

The measurements come from computer vision body tracking, 33 landmarks on every frame. The findings are drafted from those measurements and then reviewed, edited and signed by Coach Joel A. before anything reaches your inbox.

Is there anything else to buy?

No. The report is $99, one time. There is no subscription and no package to choose. Send one video, get the report.

What ages does this work for?

Youth through college. For younger players the report accounts for what is developmentally normal, and it says so, because flagging a nine year old for something that arrives naturally at twelve would be selling you a problem.

Hitting and pitching?

Both. Swing reports carry twelve measurements. Pitching reports add arm slot and release height for fourteen.

Is this medical or injury advice?

No. This is a movement analysis for training purposes only. It does not assess injury and it is not a substitute for a doctor or physical therapist.

Find the leak.
Then fix that, not the symptom.
