Features

Everything SubCoach can do, from the side of the rink to the debrief. Every plan includes all tagging and timing features.

Tagging and timing

  • Point tags for moments (line passage start and end, a fall, a start) and range tags for efforts that last a while (a take-over, a relay exchange).
  • Your own tag types with colours, and keyboard shortcuts on desktop.
  • Frame-by-frame stepping and slow motion, with timing to the exact frame.
  • Lap and split times per athlete, calculated from line passages. Copy them as a table.
  • Set any moment as time zero, for example the start signal.
  • A timeline with all tags on one line, which you can expand to one line per tag type.

Recording and uploading

  • Record in the browser at the highest frame rate and resolution your camera supports.
  • On iPhone: film with the Camera app or Blackmagic Camera for full control, then upload.
  • On Android: install the app and share videos to SubCoach straight from your gallery.
  • Any common format, including iPhone .mov (HEVC). Videos are converted for smooth playback in every browser.
  • Capture date and frame rate are read from the file, and videos are grouped by day.
  • Replace a video file later (for example a better copy) while keeping all its tags.

Athletes, labels and searching

  • Keep a list of athletes and link them to the videos they appear in.
  • Label videos by session, group or location, and filter on labels.
  • Find all videos of one athlete in one click.
  • Athletes with an account can be linked to themselves and see all their videos automatically.

Coaches and athletes

  • Sign up as a coach or as an athlete: the app shows what matters to you.
  • Coaches keep their athletes in one list and invite them by e-mail, one by one or a whole group at once.
  • Invited athletes get their own account and automatically see every video they're in.
  • Assistant coaches on your staff can view and tag all your videos.
  • Athletes of Coach Standard and Pro coaches get Athlete Standard for free.

Sharing and teams

  • Share a video, or many at once, view-only or with edit rights.
  • Friends: pick people from a list instead of typing their e-mail address.
  • Teams: every member sees the team videos. A team can have several owners who manage its members.
  • View-only users can ask for edit access, and you approve it with one click.
  • Notifications in the app, and e-mail notifications that everyone can switch off.

Public links

  • Share a video with anyone through a link, without an account: a read-only player with the timeline, events, lap times and an athlete filter.
  • Video lists: select several videos and share them as one link, with an overview to browse them like on the Videos page.
  • Fragment links: share a fragment search, for example all spins of one athlete. The clips play one after another, and new matching videos are added automatically.
  • Replay range tags in slow motion, with sound if you allow it or muted by default.
  • Put any public link on your club website, and switch it off at any time.

Storage

  • Automatic compression: videos shrink to a fraction of their size in the background, right after upload or after a delay you choose, so you can tag the full-quality version first.
  • Compression keeps every frame, so tags and lap times stay exact, and a video is never compressed twice.
  • See your storage use at any time. Plans from 1 GB (free) to 500 GB, and more for federations.

API for your own tools

  • Connect SubCoach to your own scripts, timing systems and club website with a REST API.
  • Upload videos automatically, with their details, athletes, teams and labels.
  • Read videos, tags, lap times and fragments, and post tags from other systems such as timing equipment.
  • Secure service tokens that you create in your account, limited to the permissions you choose and revocable at any time. A token only sees your own data.
  • Included in Coach Standard, Coach Pro and Federation, on request.
