Aim
To build an affordable, A.I based, sports coaching platform
My name is Sean Rigby. I'm a dad, a football coach, and founder of NextplAi.
I've spent years on the pitch with young players - watching them, grow, and dream. But there is a massive gap between raw talent and real opportunity. Too many kids don't get the feedback, support or visibility they need to improve and stand out.
That's why I created NextplAi - a fun, safe, and smart football app that gives young players instant feedback on their training, tracks progress, and rewards development. It's designed to be kid-friendly, engaging and easily accessible to all.
We're not here to replace coaches - we're here to support players, parents, coaches and clubs in a new way. Because every player deserves the chance to improve, be seen and stay in love with the game.
Where the funding goes:-
- Finalising the MVP (our working app prototype)
- Developing the AI engine that analyses the clips
- Building child safe features and gamified rewards
- Launching our first wave of players for testing and feedback
- Marketing to get it into the hands of real families as fast as possible
We are ready to push to the next level, but we need the support to get there.
Help us level the playing field. Back NextplAi and be a part of the future of football development.
