Automated film workflow

How SnapSync works

Upload your raw game film once. Our servers automatically detect every snap, cut the game into individual plays, and sync your camera angles together—so you can get straight to coaching.

1. Upload your raw film

Drop your full-game video files into the portal—whether you shot with one sideline camera or up to four angles (sideline, end zone, press box, or drone). Use whatever cameras or phones you already own; no proprietary hardware is required.

Keep your browser tab open until the upload bar finishes (if your connection drops, you can pick right back up where you left off). Once the upload completes, close your laptop—our servers take over from there.

2. We cut the plays and sync the angles

Our AI analyzes the footage to pinpoint every snap, automatically slicing your raw timeline into individual play clips.

If you upload multiple angles, SnapSync locks them to the exact same moment using visual recognition—no audio track required. Even silent press-box or elevated pole-camera footage syncs automatically.

3. Review and fine-tune (optional)

When your playlist is ready, open it right in your browser. Your plays are already cut and synced, though you have full control to trim a start or end point, split a play, remove false triggers, or manually nudge a camera offset if needed.

Need to add another parent's video later in the week? Upload the extra angle anytime and SnapSync will sync it right into your existing game.

4. Export to Hudl or share with your staff

Download your entire game as a clean .zip archive with every play numbered in chronological order. Teams using Hudl can drag and drop those ready-made clips straight into their library for tagging—skipping hours of manual timeline scrubbing.

Video specs and recommendations

To get the fastest uploads and cleanest play cuts, follow these simple guidelines:

  • Recommended resolution. 1080p HD gives you clear player and ball detail while keeping file sizes fast to upload.
  • Supported formats. .mp4, .mov, and .mts, up to 4K. (Files below 720p will still upload, though lower resolution can reduce snap-detection accuracy.)
  • Camera limit. Up to 4 synced angles per game.

What's on our roadmap

We are actively building new features based on feedback from football coaches. Coming soon to the portal:

  • One-click Hudl export packages formatted with Hudl naming conventions.
  • Girls' and boys' lacrosse automated play-cutting.
  • Player and parent viewing links for easy film sharing.
  • Telestrator drawing tools and coaching notes directly on clips.
