FiyrPod is a GPS-based athlete performance platform built around a wearable pod. The pod captures real-time speed, acceleration, distance, and movement during training and competition, then shares that data across the athlete, coach, and parent so speed development can drive every decision.

FiyrPod is built for three groups: youth athletes ages 8–18 and their parents, independent speed and agility coaches, and sports organizations like clubs, academies, and universities. Each group gets its own app view and metrics, all running on the same shared performance data.

FiyrPod supports soccer, baseball, American football, track and field, rugby, and multi-sport athletes. Each sport gets tailored metrics like baseball split and reaction times, football combine numbers, track sprint splits, and soccer max speed and player load, instead of generic distance tracking.

Unlike a fitness watch or a generic GPS tracker, FiyrPod is purpose-built for speed development. It automatically detects sprints, calculates sport-specific metrics, and streams live to both the athlete and the coach, turning each session into shareable proof rather than step counts or a map of where you ran.

FiyrPod is a sports-technology company based in San Diego, California. The team comes from electrical, mechanical, aerospace, biomedical, chemical, and software engineering backgrounds, and every member has a sports background. FiyrPod designs and builds both the hardware and the apps in its San Diego lab.

The FiyrPod slides into a pocket between the shoulder blades on a lightweight compression vest worn under any kit. It sits flat against the upper back with zero bounce, so athletes train or compete normally and quickly forget the pod is there.

The FiyrPod has an 8-hour battery, enough for a full training day or a tournament of sessions on a single charge. It powers live Bluetooth streaming to the athlete app and to the sideline antenna throughout, and you simply recharge it between days.

The FiyrPod streams over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) directly to the athlete app for live personal stats. On the sideline, a ground-station antenna relays data from multiple pods at once to the coach app, so an entire group can be recorded in a single live session.

Yes. The FiyrPod supports over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates, so new features and improvements are delivered to the device automatically through the app. There is no need to send hardware back or buy a new pod to stay current.

Every FiyrPod includes a lifetime warranty, plus a free hardware upgrade every three years. FiyrPod stands behind the pod for as long as you train on it, so the device keeps pace with the platform without an extra purchase down the line.

Yes. The FiyrPod is small, lightweight, and worn flat between the shoulder blades under the kit, away from limbs and impact points. It is designed for youth athletes ages 8 and up to wear comfortably through full training sessions and competition.

The athlete app records live sessions from the pod over Bluetooth and reveals a "player card" the moment training ends. Athletes see sport-specific metrics, personal bests, AI session summaries, leaderboards, and wellness check-ins, and can connect to a coach by QR code, invite link, or organization code.

The coach app captures live data from multiple pods at once and turns it into leaderboards, sprint breakdowns, speed zones, and head-to-head comparisons. Coaches manage athlete profiles and groups, track readiness and wellness, sync video with GPS data, and export reports, all from one dashboard.

The FiyrPod athlete app runs on iOS and Android. The FiyrCoach app runs on macOS, iOS, and Android, so a coach can run a live session from a laptop on the sideline or from a phone or tablet, whichever fits the field setup.

Yes. Both FiyrPod apps are offline-first. Sessions record and process on the device with no connection needed, then sync to the cloud automatically once you are back online, so spotty field Wi-Fi never costs you a session or its data.

After each session, the athlete app generates an AI-powered summary that compares the current performance against the athlete’s history, highlighting new personal bests, trends, and where speed is improving. It turns raw numbers into a plain-language readout the athlete and parent can actually understand.

FiyrPod tracks real-time speed, acceleration, distance, and movement, then derives sprint detection, max velocity, split times, and player load. It also captures wellness and readiness inputs, so performance data is always paired with how the athlete actually feels day to day.

For baseball, FiyrPod captures reaction time, burst distance, jump distance, and 79-foot and 90-foot split times: the base-running and first-step numbers that matter for the sport. It captures them automatically, without a stopwatch or manual timing on the field.

For soccer, FiyrPod tracks max speed, player load, distance, and acceleration. For football, it captures combine-style metrics such as the 40-yard dash. For track and field, it records sprint split times at 10m, 20m, and beyond, alongside meet results.

FiyrPod pairs performance data with daily wellness check-ins (sleep, soreness, mood, and fatigue), plus pre-session readiness and post-session RPE (rate of perceived exertion). Coaches see squad-wide readiness and total load, which helps manage training and reduce injury risk.

The data belongs to the athlete. FiyrPod is transparent about exactly what it collects and how the data is used, and athletes and their families keep ownership of their own performance and wellness data on the platform.

Yes. FiyrPod uses 256-bit AES encryption with a HIPAA-conscious design and tightly restricted internal access. Performance and wellness data is protected, and access is limited to the people an athlete chooses to connect with, such as their own coach or organization.

No. FiyrPod never sells athlete data. The data is the athlete’s, and it is not resold or shared for advertising. That commitment is core to FiyrPod’s transparency, and it matters especially for the youth athletes the platform is built to serve.

Yes. FiyrPod is built for all athletes and includes optional menstrual cycle tracking for female athletes, alongside the same speed, wellness, and readiness tools. Optional features like this are always opt-in and private to the athlete who enables them.

FiyrPod is distributed through a network of Brand Partners and Expert Directors rather than retail shelves. To get started, connect with a FiyrPod sponsor or book a demo, choose a plan from the Marketplace, and your pod ships to you ready to pair and train.

FiyrPod is sold as hardware plus a software subscription. Exact pricing is set per program when you connect with a sponsor or book a demo, so the plan fits your sport and level. Every pod includes a lifetime warranty and a free upgrade every three years.

The sponsor program is an invite-only affiliate program for trusted coaches. Sponsors earn $21 per month, recurring, for each athlete they refer, with transparent net-30 payouts and a 120-day, cookie-free attribution window so referrals are credited fairly.

FiyrPod is set up through your coach, club, or team, not sold direct to athletes. Ask yours for your FiyrPod invite link, which sets up your pod and plan and connects your sessions to their dashboard. If they are not on FiyrPod yet, point them to a quick demo at fiyrpod.com.

Clubs, academies, schools, and universities license FiyrPod at roster scale. Teams get live multi-pod capture, head-to-head comparisons, squad-wide readiness, and reporting across the whole roster. Organizations book a demo to set up multi-seat licensing for their athletes.

Yes. FiyrPod is field-tested and used by USA Rugby, NFL-connected trainers, and Olympic athletes, and its coach advisors come from those programs. FiyrPod uses authentic reviews only and never pays for endorsements, so the proof comes from real use.
