Meet EquiScore

Computer vision and performance analytics are reshaping elite and professional sports. However, many sports remain overlooked. Equestrians still lack purpose-built tools and rely on observed, largely qualitative insights. This limits performance and has significant financial impacts on sales success and prize money won, with horse prices ranging from $50K - $10M and prize money of $10K - $1M+, even in amateur competitions. Audience engagement stagnates without stronger insights and/or the backbone of data to enable sports betting and fantasy games. Pressing issues such as horse welfare, also stand to benefit tremendously from more objective, measurable insight driven by modern technology. 

EquiScore’s Solution: EquiScore delivers AI-powered overlays and automated highlight reels for riders, trainers, competitions, and media partners. For live events, we integrate with on-site livestream and social teams to capture and process footage. 

Our mission is to help riders understand their horses more deeply, focus on what truly matters, and share their journey with compelling insights and visuals. We owe it to our horses to use every tool available to us to be better partners and better athletes.
