About NextPlay

Sports video editing without the editing

Our Mission

NextPlay started with a simple problem: youth sports parents already film the moments that matter, but should not have to spend their nights scrubbing timelines to preserve them. Upload whatever you shot — phone clips, a practice session, or a full game — and NextPlay finds likely plays and cuts the downtime. You review the moments, choose what belongs, and share the finished highlight yourself. Recruiting and coach-ready versions are there later if your athlete needs them.

What Makes Us Different

Raw Footage In, Highlight Out

Phone clips, a practice session, or a whole game. The AI finds the plays, cuts the standing-around, and hands back a highlight you choose the moments for.

AI Does the Cutting

3-layer scoring (visual + audio + game context), narrative sequencing, social captions, and a game snapshot — automatically, from the footage you upload.

41 Sports

Basketball, football, soccer, baseball, volleyball, netball, lacrosse, hockey, wrestling, tennis, swimming, track, and 29 more.

Every Play, Not a Sample

Game film is cut play by play — every detected play becomes a clip, however long the game runs. A breakdown missing plays is not a breakdown.

For Everyone

Youth parents sharing with family. High schoolers making a reel to send to coaches themselves. College athletes creating NIL content. Coaches breaking down film play by play.

ESPN-Grade Production

Teal-orange color grading, speed ramping, score bug overlays, stat cards, and cinematic zoom — all automated.
