Many Data Sources. No Architecture to Connect Them.

1

The Fragmentation Problem

Most clubs sit on more performance data than ever before. GPS outputs, session load, strength data, physio notes. The problem is not volume. It is that the data lives in disconnected systems with no individual model underneath it. No standardised infrastructure. No strategy for consolidating across sources. No security architecture built for clinical data. Twinspire provides what most clubs are missing: a structured, expert-informed layer that connects the data already being collected and builds a coherent picture of each individual athlete.

2

The Recovery Gap

The data your players generate off the training pitch, rest-day recovery scores, sleep quality, nocturnal HRV, resting heart rate trends, never reaches anyone who could act on it. It exists. It is simply never read in the context of what happened at training the day before. Research is clear: clubs not measuring recovery are not measuring half their performance picture. Training load data alone cannot produce a meaningful readiness observation. Recovery data is not supplementary. It is required.

3

Why Both Streams Are Required by Science

Combining recovery monitoring with training load data provides the basis for modelling the athlete as a dynamic system, one where training is the input and physiological readiness is the output. A 2025 joint modelling study found that integrating sleep, HRV, and load data was necessary for robust individual readiness assessment. Neither stream is sufficient alone. Without both, you are not modelling a person. You are modelling a session.

Club data. Personal data. One individual model

01

Works With Your Current Setup

API integration with your existing platform, Catapult, Statsports, Bricks, or any provider with an open API. No migration. Outputs appear in your current interface.

    02

    Connects the Private Data Stream

    the personal wearables your players already use, the wearables your players use off-site. Twinspire is the only platform with the consent architecture to legitimately integrate this data into club analytics.

      03

      Individual Baseline Modeling

      What normal looks like for this specific player, not for footballers in general. Built from both streams, continuously updated, surfacing deviation early with key drivers surfaced explicitly.

        Three questions answered every day

        1. 01

          Is this player's current state within their personal normal range, combining club and personal data?

        2. 02

          Which signals are driving any deviation, and from which data stream?

        3. 03

          Is this player ready to train at full intensity, by their individual model, not a population benchmark?

        4. 04

          What has changed since last session, and does the pattern match anything seen before?

        The Individual Baseline

        Not a squad benchmark

        A shift that looks unremarkable across a squad can be a significant warning for a particular player. Each individual's reference behavior is built and measured separately.

        Trained staff leave. The model does not.

        A good physio intuitively knows their long-term players. When staff turn over, that knowledge leaves. Twinspire makes it objective, permanent, and transferable.

        The Athletic Passport

        Every session, load, injury, and rehab milestone, portable, owned by the athlete. When they transfer, their full history transfers. New club inherits objective data from day one.

        The Player App

        Players connect their personal wearables and complete a morning check-in directly in the Twinspire app. This is how the private data stream enters the model. The daily check-in captures subjective readiness, sleep quality, and wellness markers that no wearable measures automatically. Both streams together build the individual picture. If your club already has a player-facing app, Twinspire can integrate with it rather than sit alongside it.

        Built For Everyone Who Keeps Footballers on the Pitch

        One platform. Three roles.

        Footballers

        Footballers

        Connect your your wearable once. Your individual baseline is yours, not the club's. When you move, it moves with you. A portable physiological record across your entire career.

        Coaches & Performance Staff

        Coaches & Performance Staff

        Squad-level readiness built on individual baselines, not averages. Including the signal your current platform cannot access, the private data stream from the player's own wearables.

        Physiotherapists

        Physiotherapists

        Deviation alerts across both club-controlled and player-controlled data, surfaced before they become conversations, and well before they become injuries.

        Pouya played professional football until a reinjury ended his season after a full clinical clearance. The signals had been there, across separate systems that never spoke to each other. He returned to DTU, turned that experience into a research question, and built what the sport was missing. MSc in Electrical Engineering specialising in AI and control systems. He leads research translation, strategic direction, and external partnerships.

Advises Twinspire on platform architecture, infrastructure maturation, and the compliance frameworks required to build to medical device standards.

        The Compliance Architecture Built Around Five Principles

        As player unions and club legal teams scrutinise how health data is handled, the compliance architecture your platform is built on matters.

        Identify

        KPIs grounded in physiology, not vanity metrics. Every variable in the model has a validated biological rationale and a defined relationship to athlete readiness.

        Validate

        Technology validated before it reaches a clinical decision. We apply the same validation rigour to our models that medical device standards require before a tool can inform care.

        Consent

        Granular, athlete-owned, withdrawable at any time. The player decides what they share, with whom, and for how long. Consent is not a checkbox on a terms page.

        Frequently Asked

        The questions clubs, athletes, and partners ask most often.

        Twinspire connects the data your club platform captures with the personal wearable data your players generate off-site, and builds a continuously updated individual baseline for each athlete. The output feeds back into your existing setup as readiness scores, deviation alerts, and trend data. It is a decision support tool for coaching and medical staff, not a replacement for clinical judgment.
