About
Pixellot is an end-to-end AI-automated sports production platform enabling sports organizations, venues, schools, and media companies to capture, stream, and analyze live sports with no camera operators required. Using computer vision and AI, Pixellot's camera systems automatically follow the action across 19 sports — including soccer, basketball, baseball, ice hockey, American football, rugby, volleyball, and more. The platform encompasses several key products: Pixellot Show for AI-automated live streaming complete with graphics, ads, and commentary; Pixellot Air, a portable camera for clubs and teams on the go; Pixellot DoublePlay, the world's first automated multi-camera system for baseball and softball; and a fully white-label OTT platform for fan monetization and engagement. The VidSwap analytics module gives coaches and trainers granular game breakdowns and performance insights to fine-tune training programs. Pixellot operates on a Camera-as-a-Service model, allowing sports organizations to partner financially rather than simply purchase hardware. Over 5 million games have been broadcast through its network, with clients including FIBA, national football federations, professional clubs such as Benfica and Olympique Lyonnais, the Scottish Premiership, NFHS Network, and hundreds of US high school and college athletic programs. It is ideal for any organization looking to grow its digital sports content presence and unlock new revenue streams through subscriptions, advertising, and broader fan engagement.
