Our mission

Leveling the playing field in sports recruiting.

Traditional recruiting services charge families thousands of dollars upfront with no guarantee. We built an AI-powered platform that gives every athlete - regardless of budget - a real shot at being discovered.

What ScoutingWave costs

How it started

Built by a student-athlete, for student-athletes.

ScoutingWave was founded by a high school student and licensed soccer referee in San Diego who saw firsthand how broken the recruiting process was. Athletes with real talent were being overlooked because they couldn't afford a recruiting service or didn't know how to get in front of the right coaches. So he built the platform he wished existed - AI-powered, affordable, and built around the athlete.

What we believe

Every athlete deserves a shot

Talent shouldn't be gated behind a $4,000 paywall. ScoutingWave is free to start and affordable to grow.

AI should work for athletes, not against them

Our AI analyzes film, verifies stats, and surfaces athletes to the right programs - without bias or commission.

Recruiting should be direct

No middlemen. No salespeople calling your family at dinner. Just athletes and scouts, connected.

The team

Small team. Big mission.

We're a lean team of builders obsessed with making recruiting better for everyone. If that sounds like you, we're hiring.
