The faults
The faults that cost you most
Fault 01
Late contact
Ball played behind the front hip — pace leaks and the face stays open.
Fault 02
Arm-only forehand
Hips and torso stay quiet, so the arm does all the work.
Fault 03
Open-face floaters
Short, high balls that invite the attack.
Your report names the one that costs you most.

What SwingVantage can and can't tell you
Every result carries the same honest label everywhere you see it — so you always know what's precise, what's an estimate, and what to trust for your next session. Our free engine does the everyday read; AI is an optional upgrade when you want more depth.
Measured
Read straight from your launch monitor or sensor data. The most precise number we can show.
Estimated
Our free coaching engine compares your swing to research benchmarks for your sport and level. Trustworthy direction you can train on today — no AI required.
Inferred
Want more detail? Optional AI reads your video frames for extra depth on top of the free read. Single-camera limits still apply.
Self-reported
Based on what you describe yourself. Useful context, and as accurate as the details you share.
Proof, not just claims
Here's a worked Tennisexample on sample data — the same shape your real report takes. We show the evidence, the confidence, and what we honestly can't know.
Example diagnosis
Late contact point: the hitting arm is beside or behind the front hip at contact rather than out in front — a preparation-and-timing issue, not a grip problem.
Top fix: Prepare the unit turn earlier and meet the ball out in front of the lead hip, extending the arm through contact instead of pushing at the ball beside the body.
What SwingVantage uses
- On the side view, the racket is still preparing when the ball is already arriving (late unit turn)Estimated
- Contact appears beside/behind the hip line rather than roughly an arm-length in frontInferred
- A short, blocked finish suggests the arm never extended through the contact zoneInferred
What it can't know
- Exact racket-head speed or spin without a sensor/radar
- Whether footwork or ball-reading is part of the lateness (needs live, multi-angle looks)
- Anything about wrist, elbow, or shoulder health — stop if you feel pain
How you'll measure progress
On day 7, re-film 10–15 forehands from the same side-view angle and distance. Freeze at contact: is the racket out in front of the lead hip now, with the arm extended? Re-record every 1–2 weeks to track the trend, not a single ball.
Coach summary
Player contacts the forehand late, beside the body, producing pushed strokes with no pace. Priority: earlier unit turn and contact out front with extension. Drills assigned: toss-and-hit contact point, shadow extension, early-preparation bounce-call. Retest in 7 days from a fixed side angle.
What do the confidence labels mean?
Illustrative example
Sample data, not your swing — used on demos and the sample reports so you can see the format before you start.
Heuristic estimate
A smart, data-backed read from limited input (a self-report or a single video). It is honest about being an estimate, and it sharpens every time you add a swing.
Measured
Values actually computed from your swing video or imported launch/sensor data are labelled as measured — not estimated.
We always show you which one you are looking at, and never present an estimate as a measurement.
Your swing, decoded — coaching in your pocket. SwingVantage reads your data and hands you the one fix that matters most, with confident, data-backed guidance you can use today. Findings are heuristic estimates — smart reads that sharpen with every swing you add — and they pair perfectly with a coach for injury concerns or advanced technique work, so you show up to those sessions already ahead.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What tennis strokes can SwingVantage analyze?
- SwingVantage analyzes forehands, backhands (one-handed and two-handed), serves, volleys, and overhead smashes. Each stroke type has its own phase-by-phase checklist based on professional-tour technical models.
- Do I need a tennis sensor or Hawk-Eye data?
- No sensor is required. SwingVantage can analyze a simple phone video. If you have data from a tennis sensor (racquet speed, spin rate, efficiency), you can also import that for more detailed analysis.
- What does the AI look for in a tennis swing?
- The system checks shoulder unit turn, hip-to-shoulder separation, contact point depth and height, racquet path angle, follow-through position, grip pressure patterns, and footwork sequencing.
- Can SwingVantage help me fix my double faults?
- Yes. SwingVantage identifies serve mechanics issues — toss placement, trophy position, pronation timing, and contact point — that are the most common causes of double faults.
- Is SwingVantage suitable for junior tennis players?
- Absolutely. SwingVantage scales benchmarks by skill level (beginner through elite) and age group. Parents and coaches can use it alongside in-person coaching.
