Our take
After retiring as a professional baseball player, Chris O’Dowd launched WIN Reality with Dan O’Dowd to provide future generations of baseball and softball players with simulation-based training that prepares them for the real thing.
The VR-based training tool is a revolution in the space, providing access to more practice hours and a greater variation of pitches to prepare against. WIN's product is clearly effective - Major League Baseball players who used its technology increased their batting average by 19% - hence is used by the majority of MLB franchises. In addition, the company's tech can help prepare young players entering professional leagues, by bridging the pace gap between their training games and real games, which tend to run faster.
With strong funding at its back, WIN Reality has plans to expand operations, make hardware improvements like pixilation reduction, and develop new products. This will include a tailored product for children of all skill levels, that will help rectify the unequal access that children have to quality training.
