What “free” gets you
A real, full AI analysis of one swing — not a watered-down teaser. You see your top fix, drills, and a plan, and you can retest for free. Nothing is behind a paywall today: paid plans are not on sale yet, and when they come they will add optional extras on top of this free core.
Why no equipment
SwingVantage reads your swing from ordinary phone video, with body tracking that runs on your device. There is nothing to wear, nothing to calibrate, and no launch monitor required.
How accurate is it?
Every result that comes from watching your video is a well-reasoned starting point, not a lab measurement. Treat it like a sharp-eyed coach giving you their read, then check it when you practice.
Accuracy depends on what you give it. A clear, well-lit, side-on video of a full swing produces a far better report than a dark, cropped, or partial clip.
When the analysis is unsure, it tells you so rather than inventing a number. Honesty over false precision is a core principle.
Your video and your privacy
Your swing is yours. Motion Lab reads it on your device: body tracking runs in your browser, and your video file is not uploaded for analysis.
Frames from your video leave your device only through optional features you choose. The AI vision review, which you start yourself, sends a small sample of still frames to a third-party AI provider; our servers pass them through without storing them. If your device cannot read a clip, you can agree to an optional cloud re-read of a limited set of still frames.
We do not sell your data or use it for advertising. When you sign in, your sessions, progress and saved analyses are kept in your private account and synced across your devices. A saved analysis can include one still frame for its swing trace. Your video files are not uploaded unless you choose to share one for training, an optional box offered only to signed-in adults filming themselves.
You can review, export, or delete what you create from the Data Center at any time.
Frequently asked questions
What kind of video gives the best results?
Film from the side (down-the-line or face-on), in good light, with your whole body and the full swing in frame. Hold the phone steady or prop it up. A 5–10 second clip of one swing is ideal. Normal speed works; for golf, baseball, and fast-pitch, 60 fps sharpens the moment of contact.
Do I have to pay to see my results?
No. Your analysis, top fix, drills, plan and retest are all free. The only thing you may be asked for is a free account, so your fix and retest can be saved to you.
Which sports are supported?
Golf, tennis, baseball, softball, pickleball, and padel.
Is it really just my phone?
Yes. A clear, side-on clip from any modern phone is all you need.
