AI and military satellites power STATSports GPS to combat injuries

STATSports, a top player tracking company, has launched ‘Apex 2.0’—a new GPS tracker helping coaches at elite sports teams to boost player durability. Among its users are Premier League leaders Liverpool, known for their strong injury record this season.

Top athletes are now less likely to get injured thanks to a cutting-edge tracker using AI and military-grade GPS.

Custom, award-winning AI software offers advanced biomechanical analysis to improve running form and optimise movement—helping coaches spot injury risks early and uncover untapped athletic potential.

Apex 2.0 uses military-grade RTK and GNSS satellite systems to deliver highly accurate data. This precision helps coaches, players, and analysts better manage training loads, reducing error and lowering injury risk.

Furthermore, Apex 2.0 also compares players’ current stats with their past performance data. It provides real-time feedback during training and matches, aiding in injury prevention.

With its new AI-powered tech, STATSports has introduced ‘Sprint Split Analysis’ and ‘Force Velocity’—profiling tools that pinpoint speed weaknesses in players and offer quick improvement tips. These features eliminate the need for traditional timing gates, saving clubs money while helping unlock more athletic potential.

The data is delivered faster than ever—crucial for on-field coaching decisions. Thanks to Cloud technology, player tracker data uploads instantly to a central database, accessible and editable from any web browser—an industry first. This enables coaches and sports scientists to respond quickly to player load, enhancing both individual and team care.

Apex 2.0 has also been adopted by PSG, Arsenal, Manchester City, and the England national team, along with rugby’s All Blacks and Springboks, the NFL’s Washington Commanders, and MLB’s LA Dodgers highlighting its wide-ranging versatility.

STATSports Co-Founder, Sean O’Connor, highlights the importance of accurate training data and explains how its advanced AI and satellite technology revolutionising coaching and injury prevention.

“For too long now we have heard athletes’ stories of being over or undertrained – albeit unknowingly – at high speed and over long distances because the data a sports scientist is seeing live is simply not accurate. The cumulative effects of this incorrect loading over the course of a season, let alone a career, do not bear thinking about,” he said via press release.

“This is why we are proud to roll-out Apex 2.0 to some of the biggest and most recognisable names in world sport – including Liverpool, who have one of the best injury records of any team in the Premier League this season. The accuracy and reliability of the data produced by Apex 2.0 is unmatched anywhere.”

Apex 2.0 is widely recognised as a game-changer for player performance over the next decade. Its FIFA Quality award proves STATSports’ position as one of the few providers with a ‘gold standard’ across all data areas, setting it apart from its closest competitors.
