Challenges

Key challenges included designing a user-friendly interface for athletes of all levels, ensuring scientifically accurate training protocols, integrating gamification seamlessly, and maintaining long-term user engagement.

The Problem

In the world of sports, injuries don’t just cause physical pain—they end careers, crush dreams, and cost clubs millions. Whether it’s soccer, hockey, gymnastics, or any Olympic discipline, a severe injury can mark the end of an athlete’s professional journey.

While countless rehab programs exist to help athletes recover after injury, very few solutions focus on prevention. Once the damage is done, the athlete may never return to their sport at the same level—or at all. This leads to personal loss for the athlete, financial loss for teams and clubs, and wasted years of training and development.

There was a massive gap: no effective, field-friendly, personalized injury prevention tool existed—until now.

Solution

Our client, a chiropractor and sports consultant who works closely with professional athletes, had recently completed an advanced injury prevention training program. He envisioned digitizing it into a scalable, AI-powered mobile app that athletes could use anywhere, anytime—especially on the field.
We helped bring that vision to life.

We built a mobile-first injury prevention app powered by AI, tailored specifically for athletes. The app features:

• Sport-specific training modules to prevent common injuries in different games (soccer, hockey, track & field, etc.)
• AI-based customization of workouts based on athlete type, sport, position, and injury history
• Video-based guided routines and voice instructions for hands-free usage
• Field-ready UX: large fonts, bold colors, high-contrast UI, and offline access
• Progress tracking and reporting for athletes, coaches, and health professionals

Athletes now have a virtual coach in their pocket—helping them train smarter, avoid injuries, and protect their careers.

“Working with the team behind this app was like adding a tech wing to my medical practice. They weren’t just developers—they understood the heart of the problem. Their communication was sharp, they respected every deadline, and what stood out was their obsession with user experience. As someone who’s always on the go with athletes, I needed this to be fast, easy, and bulletproof. They nailed it.”

Process

Our process begins with research, analyzing user needs and market trends to build a strong foundation. We then create wireframes and prototypes to map user journeys and refine interactions, ensuring a seamless experience. With a clear vision, we craft intuitive UX/UI designs that are visually appealing and user-friendly. In the development phase, our experts write clean, scalable code while ensuring performance, security, and responsiveness. This is followed by testing and optimization to refine the product for reliability. Finally, we launch the product smoothly, providing ongoing support for continued success.

Wireframing & UI/UX Design

In the design phase of the Stay on the Pitch app, our goal was to create a seamless and engaging user experience. We began by developing wireframes to establish a clear framework for the app, ensuring all features were logically organized and easy to navigate. Once the wireframes were approved, we moved on to crafting the UI, focusing on creating an attractive, user-friendly design that aligned with the app’s brand and functionality. Our aim was to provide a visually cohesive experience while making sure all interactions were intuitive and effortless.

Using Figma, we facilitated seamless collaboration, allowing our client’s team to review and provide direct feedback on designs.

Development

After getting approval for the UI design, we moved forward with development, fully understanding the client’s vision for Stay on the Pitch. Our goal was to build an app that could easily grow and adapt in the future. To do this, we adopted a modular development approach. This allowed us to structure the app in a way that as it grows or new features are needed, we can scale it quickly without starting over. We made sure the core structure of the app was solid, so it would remain flexible and reliable for years to come.

This approach didn’t mean extra work—it just meant making smart decisions early on. By carefully choosing the right technology and framework, we ensured Stay on the Pitch would be able to handle future demands efficiently and without major rework.

To speed up development, we focused on building everything from the ground up, rather than relying on pre-built templates or components. This allowed us to create a fully custom app that met the specific needs of the project, while also enabling us to deliver quickly. We worked hard to keep the development process efficient, saving time while ensuring a high-quality product.

In terms of design, our UI team worked closely with the development team to create custom UI elements and components that were not only visually appealing but also easy to maintain and scale in the future. This helped ensure that as the app evolved, we could easily update or change these elements without any complex overhauls.

Building Stay on the Pitch wasn’t just about creating a basic app; it involved developing sophisticated features that needed to handle large sets of real-time data. We focused on building a robust backend that could manage and process data quickly and efficiently, no matter how much information was involved.

Despite the complexity, we successfully built and launched Stay on the Pitch within the agreed timeline. We also implemented a strong Go-to-Market strategy that quickly attracted users and generated interest.

As Stay on the Pitch continued to grow, we kept refining our approach, optimizing the tech stack, and testing new strategies to ensure continued success. To meet increasing demand, we organized our teams into two specialized groups: one dedicated to maintaining and improving the current app, and the other focused on scaling the app and adding new features.

“Unoiatech’s team built and published the platform exactly as promised within the specified timeline we agreed upon at the outset. Not only did they meet our expectations, but they also successfully helped us launch the product, and to our delight, it began attracting users immediately. Their dedication to meeting deadlines and delivering quality results was truly commendable.”

Result

The app has now evolved from a personal project into a thriving SaaS business for our client. Here are the results since launch:

Not only is the client monetizing the app successfully through monthly subscriptions and team licensing deals, but he’s also now being approached by sports academies, Olympic training centers, and even insurers looking to reduce athlete injury claims.
