Edge Analysis

Powered by tracking and event data, Edge Analysis applies unique AI models to unlock objective, dynamic and predictive insights to enhance an analyst’s pre-match processes and their assessment of upcoming opposition.

Team Summary: Featuring AI-assistive modules designed to support the typical workflow adopted by a performance analysis department, Edge Analysis helps analysts build a better understanding of a team’s playing characteristics, ball distribution, player roles and changes to team shape during different phases, which are contextualised through Stats Perform’s unique Playing Styles framework.

Match Viewer: Using Match Viewer, users can analyse videos from matches played in the season, as well as review changes to a team’s shape during a game. Match Viewer also incorporates a Match Hub, where an analyst can create performance alerts to automatically detect recurring types of play on a match timeline. Match Viewer also includes Shape analysis to better understand the true formation of a team.

Set Play Analysis: The Set Piece analysis feature enables analysts to conduct in-depth analysis from every corner and attacking free kick routine utilised during the season.

Find Videos: Within Find Videos, users can interrogate the Edge Analysis video database to return clips featuring specific on-field events involving a specific team or their opponents. The user can search for events when teams are engaged in specific phases of play, as well as from specific areas of the pitch.

Pattern Analysis: Pattern Analysis automatically detects a team’s most dangerous passing chains, based on how they increase their likelihood of a team scoring. Recurring chains are clustered, automatically detecting specific patterns of play and to assist analysts with identifying the effectiveness of specific chains, each cluster is assigned a Possession Value (PV), based on how they increase goal probability.

Squad Breakdown: Edge Analysis incorporates a detailed breakdown of the different players and roles in a club’s squad, using AI-derived models to quantify their contribution to generating scoring opportunities.

Playlists and Downloads: Users can create and manage an archive of video playlists made up of clips created in Edge Analysis, which can be shared and downloaded from the platform.

Saved Searches: All of a user’s searches made in Set Play Analysis, Find Videos and Pattern Analysis can be saved and archived in ‘Saved Searches’, enabling a user to conduct the same recurring searches throughout the season without the need to manually select the various filters.

Edge Recruitment

Edge Recruitment introduces a new method of assessing players, applying multiple AI-powered models to profile players based on their role in a team.

By defining player roles, recruitment analysts can directly compare players who fit the parameters of each role more objectively. Edge Recruitment incorporates 19 different role types all over the pitch, which have been defined through applying five unique AI models.

Team Overview: Edge Recruitment’s Team Overview enables you to quickly identify a team’s style and their most influential roles, with a detailed breakdown of how each player is performing in their role during the season.

Role Breakdown: The Role Breakdown module provides a detailed analysis of each role and their influence within the overall performance of every team who share your own playing style.

Intelligent Sports Framework (ISF)

Compatible across tablet, PC and Mac, the Intelligent Sports Framework enables a club, association or league to adopt a more holistic approach to its day-to-day management of all football operations, using personalised technology and a user-defined interface.

The platform allows the club, association or league to license a set-number of logins to its staff, who can use their accounts to create their own personalised dashboard. In doing this they can define and customise which information they would like to view by adding and removing various data and information widgets into their own dashboard.

The ISF incorporates its own ‘live’ global football database, which includes player biographical information from over 520,000 active elite players around the world and match line-ups from over 95,000 fixtures played globally each year.

In addition to its own data and management features, the ISF is also the main entry point for other Stats Perform technology platforms, including Edge Analysis, ProVision, ProPortal, ProVideo and Query Tool.
