In a pre-seed funding round headed by Waimea Bay Investments, sports technology startup SportsSkill has raised an undisclosed sum of money with investors.

By the second half of the year, SportsSkill plans to use the new funding to expand into foreign markets and provide athletes all over the world with a distinctive offering, the company announced in a press release.

The first-of-its-kind, cutting-edge, high-performance gamified training facility is SportsSkill’s most recent innovation. This facility combines gamification and training to give athletes an immersive experience that improves technique, fosters a sense of competition, and increases fitness—all in an enjoyable, stimulating setting.

Athletes will receive data-driven insights and individualized coaching for high-performance training, according to the Pune-based company’s cutting-edge AI-powered sports training app. The startup is dedicated to extending its reach beyond its present base in India and providing elite training to athletes at all levels. The platform is made to push boundaries while preserving maximum effectiveness and quantifiable results. The center is a big step toward providing practical, real-world training to support the business’s strong digital ecosystem.

SportsSkill is expanding its partnerships with Indian schools in addition to these physical expansions. By integrating its technology into schools, the company hopes to give young athletes early access to cutting-edge training resources. It aims to empower the upcoming generation of athletes and influence the direction of sports in India by introducing AI-driven sports training solutions into educational institutions.

To appeal to a larger spectrum of athletes, SportsSkill intends to expand the sports it offers on its app. In order to facilitate closer partnerships with businesses, educational institutions, and sports organizations, it will also transition to a business-to-business (B2B2C) model in the second half of 2025. This will open the door for customized training solutions and possible synergies.
