The Challenge

Athletes and families spend hours manually clipping game film to build highlight reels for recruiting — and most never finish. The goal was to make a recruiting-ready reel something you get from a single upload.

Our Approach

VZT built an AI pipeline that detects plays for an athlete's position from full game film, then auto-edits a cinematic reel with music, color grading, and transitions. We shipped it as a web app and native mobile apps, with separate recruiting and youth experiences.
