At Uplift Labs, we believe a science-backed approach is fundamental to our product reliability. That’s why we’ve just published our comparison report for our recently launched app, Uplift, against the industry leader, VALD. In this validation report, we compare Uplift to Vald Performance’s ForceDecks by having elite athletes perform counter-movement jumps. Both Uplift and VALD show strong agreement on measures of jump height and flight time. A key difference is that Uplift provides kinematic measures, such as joint angles and velocities, which add comprehensive movement insights for athletes and coaches—all accessible on your iPhone or iPad for assessments on the road, in the weight room, or even in your garage! The Uplift app is now available on the Apple App Store. https://lnkd.in/gw-Vq5sB Check out our full downloadable report below! #validation #biomechanics #sportsscience #sportsmedicine #movementassessments https://lnkd.in/grwkq9bi

Few big milestones for Uplift Labs today, with launch of its first DTC app, single-camera movement analysis system and generative AI functions. “We’re looking to really democratize and help with accessibility,” said Uplift Co-Founder/CEO Sukemasa Kabayama. “Anybody who just owns a smartphone can basically have more than a sports performance lab in their pocket."

Today marks a pivotal moment for us all at Uplift Labs. We started this company with a mission to empower athletes of all skill levels, in every location, to improve their movement performance and health. For years, our primary product, Uplift Capture, has served elite coaches, trainers, and athletes from pro sports teams, leagues, college athletic programs, and premier sports academies. Using just two iPhones or iPads, we delivered portable, lab-grade 3D motion capture and biomechanics without the need for wearables or a cumbersome 8 to 15-camera setup. However, we were often asked: "Can I get real-time movement metrics and data?", "Can this be more actionable for coaches and athletes who don’t have a degree in biomechanics?", and "Can this be done with just one phone?" Imagine having a high-grade sports performance lab, force plates, a coach, a strength and conditioning trainer, and a physical therapist—all in your pocket. I’m beyond excited to reveal Uplift, our single-camera app that brings our industry-leading 3D motion capture engine, provides actionable insights in seconds, and features our trained Gen AI Coach offering personalized workout programming—all available today on the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPad! https://lnkd.in/gTHJnv7u With the new Uplift app, teams and organizations can easily assess their athletes’ movements through a vertical jump test, generating personalized insights and training plans to improve power and explosiveness. And now, this technology is available for the everyday athlete consumer. Read more about our newest product in the Fast Company article below.
