Hooper: AI Basketball Stats & Highlights from Your Phone — 2026 Guide

Shot-by-Shot Tracking, No Special Cameras

Hooper's computer vision technology uses AI to automatically analyze basketball video captured on a smartphone. It recognizes players and key game events, tracks detailed stats, and generates highlights and shot-by-shot analytics without the need for special cameras or manual tagging.

Get detailed basketball analytics from footage you shoot on the phone you already own.

Automatic Highlight Reels

Review every shot with automatically generated highlights. Dead time is removed automatically so you can watch a 2 hour game in just 15 minutes, skip to just the best plays, and rewatch makes and misses to improve immediately.

Turn a full game into a shareable mixtape without editing a single clip yourself.

Track Your Progress Over Time

Monitor your progress and compare against others with game stats, and save and keep track of your progress over time with your profile. The AI recognizes all players and counts up stats and plays for each player separately, then you tag yourself so scores and stats are attributed correctly.

See exactly how your game is trending and how you stack up against other players.

Your Team's Film Room, Powered by AI

Built for coaches and team staff, one plan covers your whole roster with game film, stats, and a web film room for $29.99 a month, including 10 shared hours of footage monthly with additional hours available for purchase. The Hooper Hub gives you full games, play-by-play, and every player's clips right in the browser.

Get the setup that used to cost thousands for a flat monthly team rate.

Works for Pickup Runs Too

Add friends to your group to schedule pickup games and track stats. Hooper supports training sessions, pickup runs, league games, and tournaments — just record or upload your game and Hooper automatically generates your mixtapes and stats.

Bring AI stats and highlights to casual runs with friends, not just organized leagues.

Two Phones, One Full-Court Session

Hooper can track full-court games by using two phones to record one half court each. This requires an additional player or spectator to record the opposite half with another device logged into the Hooper app — it can be two different Hooper accounts — then you link the two sessions together into a single full-court session.

Cover the whole floor without buying a single piece of extra hardware.

• Clear, evidence-backed pricing tiersThe site publishes three concrete plans — Free at $0/month, Pro at $11.99/mo, and Team at $29.99/mo (avg $2.50/player) — with specific recording limits (2 hours/month, 10 hours/month, 10 shared hours/month) and seat counts (1, 1, Unlimited). This makes the offer easy to compare at a glance.
• Specific, quantified product claimsHooper states its tracking and analysis reach 92% accuracy with the recommended setup, and cites scale metrics of 1,000,000+ shots tracked, 10,000+ games processed, and 30+ countries. It also claims a 2-hour game can be watched in just 15 minutes with dead time removed automatically.
• Named partnership and credibility signalsThe site announces an official partnership with SoftBank Corp. to bring AI technology to youth basketball nationally in Japan, and notes that the JLIN NextGen Camp used Hooper's technology for AI-powered film review. It also references being 'Backed by' and 'As seen at' with associated logos.
• Concrete technical and workflow detailsHooper explains that its computer vision analyzes smartphone video without special cameras or manual tagging, supports full-court tracking via two phones linked into a single session, and recommends a recording height of at least 5 feet (with a 'ground mode' that loses shot chart and 2-vs-3 pointer distinctions).

• Accuracy claim is conditionalThe 92% tracking and analysis figure is explicitly tied to 'the recommended setup.' The site does not state accuracy for other setups, such as ground mode, so the number should not be presented as universal.
• Team plan footage is shared, not per-playerThe Team plan includes '10 shared hours of footage monthly' across the roster, with additional hours available for purchase. It should not be described as 10 hours per player.
• Full-court requires extra hardware and a second accountFull-court tracking needs two phones recording one half court each, an additional player or spectator to record the opposite half, and a second device logged into the Hooper app (which can be a different Hooper account). This is a real setup requirement, not an automatic capability.
• API access is limited and not self-serveThe Hooper API is described as working with 'a limited set of partners across apps, hardware, and leagues,' with interested parties asked to contact Hooper. There is no published self-serve API pricing or instant signup.

For individual hoopers tracking their own game

Review every shot with automatically generated highlights, monitor your progress, and compare against others. If you also track your workouts and recovery, tools like Whoop can complement Hooper's on-court stats.
