About us

StepOut is a sports performance analysis and ecosystem technology startup. We enhance player and team performance through comprehensive data and video analysis, enabling them to identify areas for improvement and track progress over time. StepOut requires only a match video to generate analysis. Using AI and ML, it identifies players and tracks every event on the field, ensuring 99% data accuracy. StepOut automates the tedious manual data collection process traditionally handled by coaches and analysts. With our remote SaaS setup, they only need to upload a video, saving 80% of their time and effort. As the first Asian tech company to win the prestigious Reimagine Football competition, hosted by UEFA and AJAX, StepOut has partnered with numerous clubs and academies worldwide, including AFC Ajax, Rayo Vallecano, Apollon Limassol FC, and Bengaluru FC. We have a presence in Europe, the USA, Canada, the Middle East, India, Southeast Asia, and Australia. Performance analysis technology is typically available only to top-tier teams, leaving grassroots and youth levels underserved. StepOut bridges this gap by making advanced technology accessible and affordable across the entire pyramid. Our platform includes an admin web app for coaches and analysts, as well as a mobile app for players, offering intuitive information design that makes data actionable and easy to understand. Traditional sports scouting is largely visually driven, which can lead to significant talent being overlooked. With StepOut, young athletes can create data and video-backed CVs, allowing clubs to leverage digital scouting to identify and recognize hidden talents. Currently operating in football, StepOut will soon branch out to other sports, continuing its mission to revolutionize performance analysis and scouting across the sporting world.

  • Scouting Has Changed. StepOut Is Leading the Revolution. Football scouting isn’t just about watching games anymore—it’s about decoding talent. Who fits the system? Who influences the game beyond the highlights? Who’s ready for the next level? StepOut is transforming scouting, using video intelligence, data-driven insights, and smart technology to help clubs, scouts, and players make sharper, faster, and more informed decisions. ✅ From Watching Games to Analyzing Performance Modern football demands more than raw talent. Players need to fit tactical systems, contribute in every phase, and adapt dynamically. StepOut bridges this gap by combining real-time match footage with performance analytics—so scouting moves beyond gut feeling to clear, actionable insights. ✅ What Makes StepOut Different? • Smart Video Tagging – Instantly isolates key passes, defensive actions, tactical runs—so scouts focus on impact, not just highlights. • Data-Driven Scouting – Heatmaps, xG, pass accuracy—StepOut overlays data onto video, giving a complete picture of a player’s influence. • Tactical Match Summary (TMS) – AI-driven reports break down pressing patterns, player roles, and team dynamics, revealing what the stats don’t show. ✅ Empowering Players & Clubs • StepOut Player App – Players can upload highlights, track performance, and get scouted faster. • Custom Scouting Dashboards – Clubs and scouts filter by position, skills, and metrics, generating instant reports to speed up recruitment. ✅ Scouting for Everyone: From Grassroots to Pro Unlike platforms focused only on elite clubs, StepOut democratizes scouting. Academies, youth players, and lower-league teams get access to the same advanced tools—leveling the playing field with technologies used by top clubs like Ajax. ✅ A Smarter, More Connected Scouting Network StepOut isn’t just a platform—it’s a network where players, scouts, and clubs connect in real time. This is the future of football scouting. Faster, sharper, more precise. Every moment analyzed. Every decision informed.

    On December 29th, we laced up our running shoes and joined the Bhaago India Marathon in Bangalore. It wasn’t just about the miles we ran but the energy, camaraderie, and purpose we felt every step of the way. Physical activity is at the heart of everything we believe in—it’s more than staying fit. It’s about pushing boundaries, building resilience, and finding joy in movement. Whether it’s on the pitch with our software or on the streets of Bangalore, we’re always ready to go the extra mile (literally!). A big shoutout to Bhaago India for hosting such a fantastic event and to our team for showing up, running strong, and proving that we don’t just analyze sports—we live it. Here’s to many more miles and milestones ahead! 🏅 Jeet Karmakar Subhapriya Pal Arijit Roy AYUSH GUPTA Sayan Saha Abhijeet Raotole Rajesh Lousigam
