What SwingIQ measures, estimates, and does not measure

SwingIQ builds each result from the information you choose to provide:

• Manual answers — quick questions about your sport, miss, and experience.
• Imported data — launch-monitor or CSV data (e.g. FlightScope, TrackMan, Garmin) when you import it.
• Uploaded video — used to organise your review and give the AI context.
• Session history — patterns across the sessions you have logged.
• Profile & equipment — your level, goals, and gear when you add them.

When you have not provided measured data, SwingIQ gives its best estimate from your answers and well-established coaching patterns. Estimates are genuinely useful for picking one thing to work on first — but they are starting points, not measurements, and SwingIQ marks them clearly.

Unless a result is explicitly labelled as measured, SwingIQ does not:

• Calculate exact joint angles or biomechanics from your video pixels.
• Produce certified club-fitting or medical conclusions.
• Diagnose injuries or replace a physical therapist or doctor.
• Guarantee a specific score, distance, or performance improvement.

If a feature ever does measure your swing with validated video-processing or sensor logic, that result will say so plainly.

Every generated result carries a confidence level so you never see false precision:

• Estimate / Low — based on self-reported answers, or very little data.
• Medium — backed by some imported data or a few logged sessions.
• High — backed by consistent measured data and repeat sessions.

Confidence rises as you add measured data, log more sessions, improve your input quality, and complete a retest.

Better input means a more trustworthy result. A clear camera angle, complete profile, imported launch-monitor data, and a couple of logged sessions all raise both the usefulness and the confidence of what SwingIQ gives you. Thin or unclear input keeps a result at the estimate level.

SwingIQ is an improvement assistant, not an authority. It is best used to prioritise practice and track change over time, then bring sharper questions to a qualified coach, club fitter, or trainer. For pain, injury, or safety-critical decisions, consult a licensed professional.

By default, your profiles, sessions, and results are stored locally on your device — not in the cloud. Some optional features may need to send selected inputs for processing, and SwingIQ tells you when that happens. You own your data: you can export it, back it up, and delete it at any time from the Data Center.

Improvement is shown conservatively. After you set a baseline and practise, SwingIQ prompts a retest (typically after 7 days) and compares results honestly — improved, no clear change, or not enough data yet. It will not claim progress it cannot support.
