What Output Sports does

Output Sports is an Irish sports technology company headquartered at NovaUCD in Dublin that builds a combined sensor-hardware and cloud-software platform for objective athlete performance measurement and coaching. Its core product is the proprietary V2 sensor — a portable device that captures 300+ measurements (VBT, power, RSI, mobility, strength, balance, stability, wellness, and more) at claimed 99% accuracy versus force-plates, linear position transducers, and motion capture — paired with the Output Hub web dashboard and the Output Capture mobile app. The 2026-launched Output Program platform unifies programming, testing, monitoring, and velocity-based training into a single integrated workflow, replacing the fragmented tool stacks typically used by strength and conditioning coaches. AI-assisted features include a Program Uploader that ingests PDF and CSV training programs into structured plans in under two minutes and a bulk athlete data importer.

The company serves strength and conditioning professionals across professional sport (Arsenal, England FA, Cleveland Browns, Florida Panthers, Borussia Dortmund, All Blacks, IRFU, Bahrain Victorious), collegiate athletics (Louisville, Colorado, Kentucky, Loughborough), performance facilities, and the emerging HYROX functional fitness segment — reportedly used by 800-1,500+ organizations globally. Revenue is generated through a subscription SaaS model bundled with proprietary V2 sensor hardware sales, with multi-currency pricing (EUR, GBP, USD), a 30-day money-back guarantee, and up to 50% discounts for high school education customers. Go-to-market is enterprise-led with demo-driven sales, major trade show presence at FIBO and the Teamworks Human Performance Summit, and partner channels via Perform Better, Teamworks, and Kitman Labs integrations.

Output Sports is venture-backed with approximately $8.83M in disclosed funding across three rounds, including a $4.8M pre-A in 2025 led by new investors Apex Capital, Uni.Fund, and Dopamine Sports alongside existing backers Elkstone, Atlantic Bridge, and Enterprise Ireland. The company is led by co-founders Martin O'Reilly (CEO), Darragh Whelan (CSO), and Julian Eberle (CTO), with capital earmarked for US expansion and team scaling across sales, product, data science, and customer support.

Core offering

Output Sports develops a combined hardware and software platform that delivers velocity-based training, athlete testing, monitoring, and programming for strength and conditioning professionals. Its proprietary V2 portable sensor captures 300+ measurements (VBT, power, RSI, mobility, strength, balance, contacts, nordics) with 99% accuracy compared to force-plates, LPTs and motion capture, and feeds them into the Output Program SaaS platform with the Output Hub web dashboard and Output Capture mobile app.

Product overview

Output Sports offers a unified platform combining hardware and software products for athletic performance assessment and coaching. The core system consists of the V2 Sensor (portable measurement device capturing 300+ metrics with lab-grade accuracy), the Output Capture App (mobile interface for athletes), and the Output Hub (web dashboard for coaches). These components work together through the Output Program platform, which integrates programming, testing, monitoring, and velocity-based training. The HYROX Conditioning Test is a specialized testing protocol within the ecosystem. The company serves over 1,500 high-performance teams including professional sports leagues, collegiate programs, and performance facilities.

Direct peers

• Catapult Sports: Catapult is the leading provider of athlete wearable tracking and performance analytics for elite team sports. It competes most directly with Output Sports in the pro sport and collegiate segments where both sell hardware-plus-software athlete monitoring solutions to S&C and performance staff.
• STATSports: STATSports provides GPS-based athlete tracking and VBT-adjacent performance tools widely used in EPL and other top football leagues. It is a direct competitor in elite football and team sport monitoring, with overlapping buyer personas (S&C coaches) and complementary hardware-plus-software GTM.
• Kinexon: Kinexon offers real-time player and ball tracking wearables plus analytics for professional sports teams and leagues. It competes with Output Sports in the elite team-sports performance category, particularly where integrated indoor tracking and performance data are required.
• VALD Performance: VALD Performance sells force-decks, nordBords, and human movement measurement tools widely adopted by elite S&C coaches. Output Sports' V2 sensor and VBT outputs compete head-to-head with VALD's force-plate and dynamometer systems, addressing the same VBT, jump, and strength testing use cases.
• Hawkin Dynamics: Hawkin Dynamics manufactures portable force plates used by professional and collegiate S&C programs to measure jump, power, and balance metrics. It is a direct competitor in lab-grade athlete assessment where Output Sports positions its V2 sensor as a 99% accuracy alternative to force plates.
• GymAware: GymAware provides linear position transducer (LPT) based velocity tracking for VBT in strength training. Output Sports' V2 sensor is explicitly benchmarked against LPTs, making GymAware a head-to-head competitor for VBT-driven programming in S&C and pro sport environments.
• Kitman Labs: Kitman Labs is an athlete monitoring and injury analytics platform widely used in pro sport. It overlaps with Output Sports on the analytics/software layer for S&C and medical staff, and the two are integrated partners via Output Sports' open API.

Broad incumbents

• Teamworks: Teamworks is the dominant operations platform for elite sports organisations spanning communication, performance, and logistics. Output Sports integrates with Teamworks via API and is featured as an innovation partner at the Teamworks Human Performance Summit, positioning it as a complementary rather than fully competitive platform.
• Polar (Team Pro / Verity Sense): Polar's Team Pro and Verity Sense solutions provide heart-rate and movement tracking for team sports and performance facilities. While broader in scope and primarily a consumer fitness brand, Polar overlaps with Output Sports in performance-facility athlete monitoring use cases.

Emerging players

• Whoop: Whoop is a wearable recovery and performance platform expanding into team sport and coaching contexts. While primarily a consumer subscription product, Whoop overlaps with Output Sports on continuous athlete monitoring, readiness metrics, and longitudinal performance tracking.
