Overview

Sportlogiq develops proprietary computer vision technologies that track and analyze in-game player movement using standard broadcast feeds across ice, court, and field. Its core product provides player tracking and analytics for teams, broadcasters, and fans, enabling enhanced understanding of game action. The company has signed 22 NHL teams and four major broadcast networks and has filed six patents related to its technology. Founded in 2015 and led by Craig Buntin and Mehrsan Javan with a team of 18 PhDs, software engineers and designers, Sportlogiq combines research and engineering expertise. It raised $5.0M in Series A financing and plans to use the proceeds to commercialize the technology further and ramp up its real-time player tracking system. An investment group from Stockholm will assist with European business development as it expands internationally. Sportlogiq develops a player-tracking and analytics platform that uses standard, single-camera game footage to deliver advanced sports analytics to broadcast media and professional teams. The technology originated in co-founder Mehrsan Javan’s PhD thesis at McGill University and was productized while the company was part of TandemLaunch. Led by co-founders Craig Buntin (CEO) and Mehrsan Javan (CTO), Sportlogiq is working with a number of NHL teams to provide data-backed performance insights. The company is a portfolio company of incubator TandemLaunch and is based in Montreal, Canada. It closed a $1.7M seed financing and intends to use the proceeds to continue to develop and commercialize its player tracking and analytics platform.
