The acquisition adds computer vision technology and automated player tracking capabilities used by 97% of NHL teams and more than 220 clients globally
Teamworks has acquired AI-powered sports analytics platform Sportlogiq.
Sportlogiq was founded in 2015 and based in Montreal. It uses patented computer vision and machine learning technology to track and analyse gameplay for hockey, football and American football.
It is used by 97% of NHL teams and has 220+ clients worldwide, including professional hockey leagues across North America and Europe, 42 NCAA hockey programs, IIHF federations, and US soccer and global football organisations.
As part of the acquisition, Sportlogiq’s team of 80 employees, including 10 AI researchers, will join Teamworks, significantly expanding the company’s industry-leading AI, computer vision, and data science expertise.
“The acquisition of Sportlogiq strengthens our hockey offering by adding the critical foundation for advanced analytics—automated, video-based player tracking that uncovers insights invisible to the human eye,” said Zach Maurides, CEO and founder of Teamworks. “We’re combining Sportlogiq’s industry-leading video and data infrastructure with our predictive Intelligence models to deliver a complete data and analytics platform for talent evaluation, game preparation, and player development. This acquisition reinforces our commitment to AI and data innovation, and demonstrates how we’re building vertically integrated solutions that help teams win.”
“Sportlogiq was built by athletes and data scientists who understand how elite teams operate,” adds Mitchell Wasserman, CEO of Sportlogiq. “Our computer vision technology and the iCE platform have become the gold standard in hockey analytics across the NHL. Joining Teamworks enables us to accelerate innovation, expand our capabilities, and deliver even greater value to the teams and leagues that depend on us. Together, we’re defi ning the future of intelligent sports technology.”
Sportlogiq has previously provided player tracking and event data that powers Teamworks Intelligence models, delivering position-specific hockey metrics that serve as indicators of future player performance and value.
As part of Teamworks, Intelligence metrics will flow into Sportlogiq’s platform, enabling teams to move from video to advanced insights with a click.
“Sportlogiq expands Teamworks’ game preparation and talent acquisition offering by bringing best-in-class video analysis, automated tracking, and analytics,” said Blaine Patterson, Chief Commercial Officer at Sportlogiq. “Together with Teamworks’ predictive Intelligence models and robust operations and performance products, hockey organisations can now manage all their core workflows in one integrated system.”
