We saw it firsthand in 2017 — massive amounts of data coursing through the games we loved, and yet very few ways to analyze it the right way. We started Magnus to arm the diamond sports industry with the best technology to harness that data's power: the pitchers and their coaches looking to improve their arsenals. The analytics departments looking for more accurate intel on draft picks. The scouts that needed to be where they needed to be on the field, and not behind the plate clocking speeds.
Today we work across the entire technology stack: capturing and moving data for all of baseball and softball, from developing players to professional club staff. We combine next-generation hardware, extensible software, and unforgettable service into the best experience possible for athletes, coaches, teams, and leagues — so you can move forward.
Our group dedicated to the needs of professional organizations comes with decades of experience.
