Your swings, marked up.
Prop your iPhone up side-on and play. Afterwards, open the video in the app: it grades the swings it can see and shows you what to fix first, on the frame where it saw it. Then a drill for it.
One serve or drive is on the house. Whole games and rallies are Pro. iPhone, iOS 16.4+.
Set it up while your paddle’s in the stack.
-
Zero, zero, two.
Prop it up side-on.
A fence post, a tripod or the floor, level with your half, whole body in frame. Film a whole game up to 20 minutes, one rally, or a single shot.
-
One, zero, two.
Tap yourself.
One tap on a frame where you’re in full view and it follows you from there. Before the report, it shows you the swings it thinks are yours, so you can strike any that aren’t.
-
Two, zero, two.
Get it back marked up.
Each shot gets what you do well, what to fix first, and the swing and frame it saw it on. Then one drill to go and do.
What comes back.
Screens from the app. They come from other sessions, not the clip at the top.

About your game report
- What’s the one thing to fix from this game?
- Explain my biggest weakness in plain terms.
- What drill fixes this fastest?
It watches you, not the ball.
17 points on your body, up to 15 times a second, worked out on the phone. Where it can’t see a joint, it leaves a gap and trusts that measurement less. A swing it can’t see well enough isn’t graded.

The swing from the top of the page, 0.4 seconds apart, with exactly what the tracker drew on each frame. How it reads one serve, number by number.
A year of it costs about one lesson.
One in-person lesson runs $50–$100. Pro is $59.99 for the whole year.

Fair questions.

Where does my video go?
The clip never leaves your phone; pose tracking runs on your iPhone. To write your report, the app sends a table of numbers and up to 10 still frames with your skeleton drawn on them to my server and Google’s Gemini, and keeps them with your report in private storage. Coach chats and crash and usage stats leave the phone too. Everything, listed.
How does it grade a swing?
For each swing it takes 6 to 8 measurements off your body, like shoulder turn, elbow angle at contact, knee bend and timing, and scores each one between two fixed marks set from coaching mechanics. Only the serve’s scale has been checked against labelled footage so far, and that set is small. Treat drive, dink and drop scores as directional; the report says so too.
Will it catch every swing?
No. It grades the swings it can see clearly, and the report tells you how many it skipped and why. Filming closer gets you more of them.
How should I film?
On a fence post, a tripod or the floor, side-on, whole body in frame, decent light. You want to fill about a fifth of the picture’s height. From far back it can’t find your wrist and grades fewer swings, and it tells you when that happens.
Is the rating my DUPR?
No. It’s an estimate from your form, put on the DUPR scale because that’s the one players already know. Form-based estimate, not an official DUPR rating. Pickleball AI is not affiliated with DUPR.
What does it cost?
Your first analysis, a serve or a drive, is free. Whole games and rallies are Pro: $9.99 a month or $59.99 a year, up to 20 analyses a day. A failed analysis never counts.
What do I need?
An iPhone on iOS 16.4 or later. A fence post or a tripod helps.
Who makes it?
One person. I built it and I answer the email, usually within a day or two. If a number looks wrong, write to me and I’ll tell you what the code did.
Zero, zero, two. Your serve.
Film one serve side-on and it’s graded free, in about a minute. Whole games are there when you go Pro.
iPhone only, iOS 16.4 and up.
