Start with the questions your current stack already answers.

One role. Five authorized references. Start with a decision, not a platform demo.

Already available Additional evidence needed Not tested
Illustrative 4-3-3, not a recommendationAttack: left to right

You don’t need a complete shadow team. A single role and five authorized player references are enough to run a useful supplier trial.

Listed isn’t the same as scoutable.

Example data

Inspect footage, data fields, history and identity continuity within a dated sample, competition by competition.

Figures come from a fictional 20-match sample per competition. They are evaluation scopes, not coverage claims about any supplier.

Automate the task, build the connection or commission the judgment?

The same gap can call for automation, engineering or specialist judgment. Compare the routes against one brief. There’s no automatic winner.

No additional purchase

Your current stack already meets the brief. Record it and revisit at renewal.

Record a buy-nothing decision

Prove what you add.

We’re auditing scouting data, video, analytics and scouting-service providers across US soccer. Verified suppliers are matched with buyers who have a demonstrated gap. Rankings follow evidence, never payment.

8-minute survey

Verification status

    A defensible decision before your next renewal.

    Record what you decided, against which brief, and why. Keeping your current stack is a real outcome, not a failure to buy.

    Outcome

    Check subscription overlap

    List up to three products you pay for and tick what you actually use each one for. We’ll show where they overlap and what nothing covers. The example uses fictional products.

    Get verified

    Tell us what you supply and where. We verify against a shared test sample before listing anyone as verified.

    Competitions you claim to cover (choose at least one)
