A force-controlled cable platform with vision-based compensation detection captures range, load, and asymmetry on every rep. The hardware is the wedge. The data is the business.
Le Corbusier, Le Modulor, 1945
Thesis
Pro sport spends over $1.2B/yr on guaranteed contracts lost to soft-tissue injury. Insurers write musculoskeletal disability policies on 30-year-old actuarial tables. Neither has a structured, longitudinal record of mobility, asymmetry, or compensation at matched load.
Force plates measure power. GPS measures output. HRV measures recovery. Nothing measures the tissue that actually tears.
Our wedge is hardware. A single-cable, force-controlled stretching platform that sits in the training room and does two things no human can: apply identical load every rep, and measure what the body does in response at 100Hz + 30fps.
Our business is data. Every session is a structured record. Rolled up, those records price risk — for teams, insurers, leagues, and acquirers.
Market
Lease hardware. Consume reports. Protect guaranteed contracts. ~800 addressable programs in NA + EU. Target $60K/yr/station.
License risk signals. Price MSK premiums on evidence. $70B+ US market; MSK is ~40% of claims. Data licensing, not hardware sales.
Roster-level availability models. Standardized injury reporting. CBA-aligned. Long sales cycle, enterprise scale.
Hyperice, Therabody, Catapult, Nike, Peloton. Data moat + patent are the asset. Acquisition-optimized.
Product
200W brushless motor. Inline load cell, ±0.1 lb at 100Hz. Backdriveable compliance loop. Five independent safety layers. Commercial parts, field-serviceable.
Depth camera tracks 12 skeletal landmarks at 30fps. ±2° joint angle. Detects pelvic rotation, trunk shift, knee bend in real time — the core patent claim.
Range, force, asymmetry, compensation, tolerance — per rep, per athlete, per session. REST API to AMS. Longitudinal on our side. That's the moat.

Moat
USPTO provisional filed April 15, 2026 (App. No. 64/040,028). Non-obvious combination of force-following cable drive + depth-camera skeletal tracking used to modulate tension in real time. Utility conversion scheduled within the 12-month window.
Every hardware deployment ships with a data-sharing addendum. De-identified session records license to us in perpetuity. Teams get the reports; we get the corpus. This is the insurance play.
A cable platform in a training room is not replaced casually. Every station deployed compounds the corpus and raises the cost of any competing entrant catching up.
