The Company’s primary service is the analysis of characteristics of point-ending shots of video-recorded tennis matches in order to identify individual players’ strengths, weaknesses and tendencies, for the benefit of tennis players, coaches and instructors. Toward that end, the Company has developed (1) a web-based app that is used to collect, compile, sort and display user-filterable attributes pertaining to every point of a selected tennis match, and (2) a web-based app (associated with the previously mentioned app) that is used to timestamp and synchronize video clips of each corresponding point of the match. To date, these apps have been successfully used to analyze several hundred tennis matches at all levels of the game. Current users of the company's services include men's and women's nationally ranked college tennis programs. It is the maintenance and continued enhancement of these two apps for which the Company is currently seeking a reliable part-time software developer / consultant. The Company’s principals were the founders and creators of the Universal Tennis Rating (UTR®) system that currently is the most widely recognized and most reliable tennis player rating system in the world.
