About
Orreco is an enterprise-grade sports science intelligence platform designed for professional sports organizations, elite teams, and high-performance athletes. It merges cutting-edge AI inference with decades of peer-reviewed sports science to deliver actionable insights that reduce injury risk, optimize training loads, and prolong athletic careers. The platform operates as a modular stack, allowing staff to adopt individual modules—such as Biomarkers, Motion Signal, Recovery Labs, Medical Notes, and Wellness—or run the full suite in a single unified dashboard. Its standout Motion Signal module uses computer vision to detect non-contact soft-tissue injury risk early by analyzing movement trends. The AI-powered Tr AI n module predicts future training loads from historical GPS data, while the Women's Performance module leverages menstrual cycle tracking for tailored training and nutrition advice. Orreco's athlete-facing app (@thlete) gives individual athletes ownership of their recovery, readiness, and wellness data, and allows staff to push evidence-based content directly to them. Medical Notes provides centralized, audit-ready injury and illness documentation, and the Analytics & Reporting module offers benchmarking and visualization tools for the entire team dataset. Proven results include a Premier League hamstring injury prediction model with 85% accuracy, a 74% reduction in soft-tissue injuries for an MLS team, and 45+ Olympic medals supported across five Olympic Games. Orreco is purpose-built for sports scientists, performance coaches, medical staff, and athletic directors at professional and Olympic-level organizations.
Key Features
- Motion Signal (Computer Vision): Analyzes athlete movement trends using computer vision to flag non-contact soft-tissue injury risk before it becomes a problem.
- Blood Biomarker Tracking: Integrates objective blood biomarker data for real-time decision-making on training, recovery, and athlete readiness.
- AI Training Load Prediction (Tr AI n): Predicts optimal future training loads by learning from historical GPS and workload data to prevent overtraining.
- Modular Unified Dashboard: Staff can build a custom platform by selecting only the modules they need—Recovery Labs, Medical Notes, Wellness, Travel, and more—all in one dashboard.
- Women's Performance Module: Tracks menstrual cycles to personalize training schedules, nutrition recommendations, and recovery advice for female athletes.
Use Cases
- A Premier League club uses Orreco's Motion Signal module to monitor player movement patterns during training, identifying hamstring injury risk weeks before symptoms appear.
- An NBA performance team integrates Orreco's Biomarkers module to track blood markers after back-to-back games, informing personalized recovery protocols to maintain player availability.
- An Olympic swimming program leverages the Women's Performance module to adjust training intensities and nutrition plans around athletes' menstrual cycles, improving performance consistency.
- An MLS sports science staff uses the Tr AI n module to predict weekly training loads based on GPS history, reducing soft-tissue injuries by 74% over a season.
- A multi-sport elite academy adopts Orreco's modular platform to unify medical notes, wellness questionnaires, and recovery lab data across all squads in a single auditable dashboard.
Pros
- Elite-validated science: Grounded in 20+ years of peer-reviewed research and Olympic-level application, including support for 45+ Olympic medals and a Premier League injury model with 85% accuracy.
- Highly modular and scalable: Teams can start with a single module and scale up as needs grow, avoiding unnecessary complexity or cost from the outset.
- First platform combining computer vision with internal/external load: Uniquely integrates motion data from computer vision alongside physiological and wellness data for a comprehensive athlete picture.
- Athlete-facing app included: The @thlete companion app gives athletes direct access to their data and receives evidence-based content pushed from staff, improving buy-in.
Cons
- Enterprise pricing with limited transparency: Pricing is not publicly listed and is tailored for professional sports organizations, making it inaccessible for amateur clubs or individual coaches.
- Steep onboarding for full stack: Deploying the full suite of modules—biomarkers, GPS, computer vision, wellness—requires significant organizational readiness and staff training.
- Primarily designed for team sports at elite level: Individual athletes or small fitness businesses may find the platform over-engineered for their needs.
