AI Softball Swing Analysis
— Slow Pitch & Fast Pitch

Two Separate Analysis Modes

Frequently Asked Questions

Does SwingIQ support both slow pitch and fast pitch softball?

Yes. SwingIQ has separate analysis profiles for slow pitch and fast pitch softball. Each uses sport-specific benchmarks — slow pitch focuses on arc timing, gap hitting, and power angles, while fast pitch emphasizes timing against faster pitches, attack angle, and contact point.

What metrics are most important in slow pitch softball?

Exit velocity, launch angle (25–35° is ideal for distance), spray angle (pulling vs. going the other way), and bat speed are the core metrics. Swing plane and timing against the arc are also critical.

What metrics matter most in fast pitch softball?

Time to contact, attack angle, launch angle, bat speed, and contact point depth are key in fast pitch. The faster pitch speeds (50–75 mph) demand a much shorter, more efficient swing path.

How do I import my hitting data into SwingIQ?

You can upload a CSV from Rapsodo, Blast Motion, or Diamond Kinetics. You can also take a screenshot of any device screen and manually enter your data using the image import tool.

Can coaches use SwingIQ for a whole team?

Team and facility accounts are on the roadmap. Currently, each athlete has their own account. Coaches can guide athletes through SwingIQ and review progress together.

Guides for your game

• How to Hit for More Power in Slow-Pitch SoftballSlow-pitch power comes from matching the high arc with an upward, on-time bat path and full hip rotation — not from swinging harder. Here is how to build it safely.
• How to Hit Line Drives in SoftballLine drives come from a bat path that matches the pitch, contact slightly out front, and a level-to-slightly-up swing. Here is the checkpoint and drills to groove it.
• How to Stop Popping Up in SoftballPop-ups come from swinging under the ball — dropping the back shoulder or chopping at a dropping pitch. Here is how to level your path and drive line drives.
• How to Hit a Slow Pitch Softball (Timing & Contact)Hitting a slow pitch is a timing challenge: let the ball travel and stay back instead of lunging. Here is how to diagnose timing problems, three drills, and a practice plan.
