FAQs
Kognia is a revolution for tactical analysis in football.
Kognia is a next generation game analysis software, which conducts tactical analysis of football games in an automated way.
Kognia delivers its unique proposition by means of the most advanced computer vision techniques and deep learning algorithms that integrate football know-how, constituting Kognia´s technology competitive advantage.
Kognia´s software has a disruptive proposition:
1. Tactical Analysis of the game: instead of delivering a generic set of stats derived from the match, the solution provides clips for video analysis of key tactical situations from the game.
2. Automated Process: Kognia´s technology analyzes the game in an automated manner, avoiding the inefficiencies of manual tagging, introducing objectivity to the analysis of the game.
3. Multiple & Simultaneous Game Analysis: Analyze multiple games and get the equivalent of 350 hours of manual analysis per game. Receive more than 200 unique game play situations from individual, team and line tactical situations.

It is an innovative product oriented towards professional football markets, including for professional football clubs, leagues, federations, and sports media companies.
Xavi Hernández: “As a coach, Kognia provides me and my staff with critical information that helps me take the best decisions from the bench”
Unai Emery: “Automatically identifying our own tactics at the same time they are drawn in the video is key because it helps us to objectively put our focus on gameplay situations that are crucial for our team performance”
Paulo Sousa: “With a tool like Kognia the technical team can focus straight in the strategy. It is like buying time”
Upon initial interest Kognia conducts meetings with potential clients to present the product and discuss its potential applications by the client. Upon agreement by both parties, free trials can be organized for a certain period of time prior to the final signature of the contract agreement.
Kognia uses artificial intelligence to remove the manual processes of tactical performance analysis. This makes it extremely easy to use as analysts can receive high quality feedback with tactical drawings automatically, in a time frame that would be unachievable manually.
The in-built filtering tools allow the user to find very specific moments quickly, while its click and save features allow analysts to create, edit and share playlists with other users. There is no longer a need for removable disks or file transfers which mean analysts can go through the complete analysis process within one software.
Interested personnel can request a product brochure from our website which will give them a short oversight into Kognia and all functionalities of the software.
For those really interested in how the software works and what type of tactical analysis is being delivered, a product demo can be requested through Kognia’s website.
Kognia is a web based application that can be accessed anytime, from anywhere, and from different devices. Therefore there is no need to download any software. Access to the software can happen as soon as the user receives the account credentials.
Kognia can deliver multiple games simultaneously so games from the same source are delivered together. This time frame however comes down to the quality of the video and whether it is supported by tracking data or not. An ideal game can be delivered within two hours of being made available to Kognia. Videos with lower quality or no tracking data can take up to four hours.
The simple answer is NO. When a game is processed through Kognia not only do you recieve all the analysis, each fundamental is supported by a tactical drawing with an automatically created overlay. This saves analysts time when it comes to performing telestration tasks.
Kognia understands that the user may want to still have a human input therefore a tagging tool is used to complement the automatic analysis. It is incorporated in the software and comes at no extra cost. The tool can be used on any uploaded video as well as those digested through Kognia. All manual tagging keyboards are customisable for each user and manual tags can be edited, named and shared alongside Kognia analysis.
Along with the video you supply to be processed by Kognia's automatic analysis process, we also give clients the option to upload additional video. This can be from friendlies, selected games or training, allowing clubs to keep all their analysis in one place for easy storage and allow all users ease of access.
Kognia doesn't limit the number of users you can have. Our SaaS business model provides the client different product plans, which can be contracted by different teams within the Club. Once a client has contracted the service for a given team(s), there is no limit in the number of users that can access the software from each specific team. This allows clients to not only give access to Analysts but also Managers, Sporting Directors and even Players.
