Investors · EIS round

The academy in
every pocket.

Tekkers is the world's first AI football coach, built over four years with Premier League coaches. Our SEIS round is done. Now we're raising £1 million through EIS to scale the coach, the app and the community behind it. The round is heading to Crowdcube. Join the waitlist to hear first when it opens.

The problem

Great coaching doesn't scale.

Every player wants more touches. The way coaching works today stops most of them getting it.

Not scalable

Top coaches are hard to find and in high demand, so they're stretched thin.

Tied to a postcode

Coaches can only reach players nearby. Facility fees eat margins and sessions depend on the weather.

Labour intensive

Repetitive, resource heavy, and the knowledge stays with whoever's on the pitch that day.

Expensive

One-to-one coaching costs a lot, and so does the time getting there and back.

The answer

An AI coach that watches every rep.

Players film a drill. Tekkers' computer vision reads body position, technique, ball touches and movement, then the AI marks it pass or fail with a score out of 100 and tells them what to fix.

It backs up real coaches rather than replacing them. Coaches approve the feedback, players get more reps between sessions, and parents can see the progress.
