Why you should work with us 🤩

Clutch is on a mission to unlock the potential of racket sports players 🏸🎾🏓 Clutch is a virtual coach available to any player in the world with a smartphone. Players simply record themselves with their phone while our AI analyzes their game and provides personalized feedback. On the Clutch platform players, coaches, and fans can share their stats and video highlights. We currently have 10+ pro badminton teams using the iOS app in beta, including top 10 players. Our early customers love us.

We’re not going after a small market - with over 300 million active players worldwide, badminton is one of the biggest sports in the world. Our ambition doesn’t end here. Next: tennis, padel, table tennis, squash, volleyball. We are building not only the technology that will power tomorrow’s athletes, but also a household sports brand.

We have a hybrid setup with an office in Barcelona and remote employees in California and Copenhagen. We’re backed by top tier investors in the Nordics, including Crowberry Capital, PreSeed Ventures and David Helgason (founder of Unity).
