As parents of children with an unshakeable passion for sports, we fully appreciate the many joys, highlights and opportunities of being a “youth sports parent”. And the many pressures, stresses and demands. In addition to the tremendous financial pressure, parents are compelled to assume many roles, including travel agent, time management guru, motivational speaker, mental wellness coach, athletic trainer, physical therapist, mentor ... the list goes on and on. Simply stated, parents are being asked to do it all.
At AthleteUPGRADE™, we believe AI technology can empower parents to better navigate the many roles thrust upon them and help them achieve some undeniably important goals. First, our AI technology helps parents tap into the power of connections. That's why we’re developing an innovative AI-powered platform to facilitate meaningful connections between your children and Division I, Division II, Division III, NAIA and Junior College athletes as well as former professional athletes. These athletes have excelled in their respective sports, intimately understand the challenges, sacrifices, and triumphs that come with the pursuit of athletic excellence, and are eager to share their experiences, insights, and expertise with your children.
Our AI technology helps parents tap into the value of true compatibility. We appreciate that it’s essential to take into account both quantitative and qualitative factors when matching your children with potential mentors since true compatibility (e.g., compatible personalities, compatible backgrounds, etc.) enhances the quality and effectiveness of the mentorship. Thus, we’re designing an AI-powered platform that uses advanced algorithms to analyze the unique personality, personal goals, athletic backgrounds and interests of your child and identifies the most compatible role models and mentors based on those metrics. The result is a powerful, personalized connection that is perfectly designed to inspire, motivate, and empower your child to fully realize their sports ambitions - whether those ambitions involve being a college athlete, being a better overall athlete or simply learning about all things sports can teach.
Our AI technology helps parents tap into the importance of a community defined by parental love, support and guidance. Parents play a vital role in unlocking the many benefits of our platform. Through our integrated parent portal, you can (i) track your child's progress; (ii) access educational content, training resources, mental resilience techniques, and developmental tools; (iii) share your child’s achievements; and (iv) be part of a supportive community of like-minded parents who share your passion for youth sports. In other words, we are exceedingly mindful that parents are an integral part of a young athlete's journey, and our platform ensures they are equipped with the information and support they need to navigate the complex world of youth sports.
