📱 Welcome to Direct Beta
Direct is a ball striking app that uses AI-powered computer vision to analyze and track your ball speed. Nothing is a more correlated with your overall game than ball striking! Upload videos of your practice sessions and get instant feedback on ball velocity, trajectory, and strike accuracy.

🎁 Free Credits for Beta Users
The ball recognition AI is still in the learning phase. As a thank you for being an early adopter, I'm providing free credits to all beta users until the ball recognition works very well. Your feedback helps improve the system!
⏱️ Processing Speed Notice
Video processing is currently slower than it will be in the final release. This is intentional to keep costs down during the beta phase. Once I have the kinks worked out and can deploy more GPUs, processing speed will greatly improve.
🎥 Best Results - Recording Tips
For optimal ball detection and analysis, please follow these guidelines:
- Record from a right angle to the ball's direction of travel
- Use a simple background (grass is great, patterned surfaces not so much)
- Keep one ball in the frame at a time
- Use a stable camera position (tripod recommended)
- Ensure the target is clearly visible in the frame
- Good lighting conditions help significantly
