What changes for your team with Aitius

Filming the match is the easy part. Watching it back and getting the point across to the team takes work. Here are the usual problems for each role, and what changes.

Coach
Before

Words alone do not show the movement

You say “stay wide” or “run in behind”, but the players cannot picture the same moment. A play drawn on a whiteboard does not show how it moves.

Coach
After

Pause, draw on the moment, and show it right there

Stop the match video and draw passing lanes and positions with arrows. Show plays on the tactics board, moving step by step.

Player
Before

No chance to see your own play from the outside

When the coach brings up a moment later, you cannot remember what happened. The good plays and the things to fix are gone once the match ends.

Player
After

Watch it again and again, with the coach’s drawings

A clip from the coach shows the key moment with the drawings on it. Progress tracking keeps a record of how you improve.

Parent filming
Before

Videos just pile up on the phone

The first and second halves end up in separate files, so watching and sharing take extra steps. Finding the moments you need takes time.

Parent filming
After

One video with just the moments that matter

Cut, slow down and add titles to make a video of only the moments you want to show. Split files join into one without losing quality.

Club organiser
Before

Uneasy about handing children’s footage to an outside service

With services that upload video to the cloud, you have to check where it is stored and who can see it, and explain it all to parents.

Club organiser
After

Video stays on the device and is never sent out

Aitius is deliberately built with no way to upload videos. What the team shares is only the plays and the drawings.

Use video to improve on your own, too

Film, watch and compare, even on days without team training. Players and parents can keep it up with just a phone.

  1. Film your usual drills from the same spotKeepy-uppies, kicking, dribbling, sprints. Put the phone in the same place each time and the record starts there.
  2. Slow it down and check your techniqueStop at the moment of the kick with 1/4 speed or frame by frame. Draw lines along the plant foot and the lean of the body, and measure the knee angle.
  3. Put last month next to today and see how far you have comeProgress tracking plays your first and latest videos side by side, and turns the pair into one video you can send. Counts and times become a graph, so progress shows in numbers.

You can also compare yourself with a model video, or roughly compare sprint speed with your teammates (for reference only).

Main features

From reviewing matches to sharing plays and tracking each player’s progress.

Drawing on video

Draw arrows, circles and notes on a paused moment

Explain passing lanes, runs and open space by drawing right on the moment. Drawings are saved with each moment and appear automatically when the video plays.

  • Arrows for passes, runs, dribbles and shots, and player markers
  • Short clips around each moment, with your drawings and a voice-over
  • Compare two videos side by side or overlaid (mirrored if you like) and turn them into one video. Slow motion, fast-forward and looping

Tactics board

Show plays moving, step by step

Place players and the ball and record the movement step by step; playback joins the steps smoothly. The offside line is drawn automatically from where the players are.

  • Ready-made patterns such as one-twos, overlaps and set pieces
  • Share a play with the team in a single link
  • Save the movement as a video, with an explanation for each step

Cut and join

Put just the moments you need into one video

Choose stretches to keep, slow down the ones that matter, and add a title at the start of a stretch. Files filmed in parts, such as the two halves, join into one without losing quality.

  • Slow motion at 1/2 and 1/4, fast-forward at ×2 and ×3, a title for each stretch
  • Export one video with your drawings in it
  • Send it straight to WhatsApp, LINE or any chat

Progress tracking

Record progress with video and numbers

Film the same drill from the same spot and compare it side by side with earlier videos. Numbers such as keepy-uppie counts and times show up on a graph.

  • Play your first and latest videos side by side
  • Record counts, seconds, centimetres and more by date
  • Build your drills from ready-made examples

Frequently asked questions

Does it cost anything?

All features are currently free to use. There is no account and no credit card to register.

Can I use it on my own, without a team?

Yes. No account is needed. Players and parents can use it to film home practice, check technique and record progress.

Do I need to install an app?

No. It works as soon as you open it in your browser. There is nothing to download from the App Store or Google Play; add it as an app from your browser to launch it from your home screen or app list (how to add it).

Where are my videos stored?

In your browser on your own device. They are never sent to a server. When you change phones, your plays and progress records move over with a backup file (the videos themselves are not included; use the files you filmed).

Can I share with my team?

Send plays as a link and drawings as a file through WhatsApp, LINE or any chat. Whoever receives the drawings opens the same video, loads the file to see them, and can send drawings back. Send the videos themselves however you usually do. Clips with drawings and edited videos can be sent as they are.

Any tips for filming?

For matches, film from somewhere high, level with the halfway line, with the whole pitch in view. For drills and technique, film from the side, from the same spot each time, so the videos are easy to compare. See Tips for filming and using Aitius for where to stand and what equipment to use.

Which video formats work?

MP4 and MOV videos filmed on a phone. iPhone videos in HEVC may not play on some devices.

Which devices does it work on?

iPhone, iPad, Android and computers, in an up-to-date browser (Safari, Chrome or Edge). The layout adapts to the screen, on a phone or a computer.

Does it work for sports other than football?

There are also courts for futsal, basketball, handball, volleyball, tennis, table tennis and badminton. Drawing on video, cutting and joining, and progress tracking work for any sport.

Does it work without a signal?

Yes, once you have opened it before. Add it as an app to launch it straight from your home screen.

Is it OK to use videos with children in them?

Videos never leave your device, so using Aitius does not store them anywhere else. When you make and send clips or pictures, take care over who you send them to and who can see them.
