To help teams use their data to win more games.
As the quality and efficiency of data analytics software evolve and improves, many professional sports teams are trying to capitalise on innovations to improve their strategies and ultimately, their wins. The complexity of software, however, makes it difficult for teams without the technical expertise to translate data into actionable insights.
Zelus has built an intelligence platform to tackle these problems. With sports such as baseball, basket, soccer, and American football worth billions as a combined industry, Zelus seeks to capitalise on the need for bridging the tech with the insights. With an exclusive partner network of professional sports teams and its co-founders' experience as analysts and strategists for leading baseball and basketball teams, Zelus is potentially onto a winning concept.
With Series A funding behind it, Zelus is well on its way to bagging clients. At present, it has secured at least eight consultant and platform subscription clients through the acquisition of golf analytics firm TourIQ. This indicates that Zelus is a broad church for the sports it supports, which will no doubt work in its favor moving forward.
