Eugene and Anton started playing basketball when they were 12 y. o. Since that time they loved this game and were practicing every day. They even played it during the winter season on a snow, as the school court was closed.
In 2019 Anton came up to Eugene with an idea to digitalize the training process for coaches and Eugene advised to build something bigger — a global basketball community — like Strava, but for basketball.
2020 they built a first clickable prototype and got first feedback from coaches. All of them were impressed with the idea, so they invested their own money and started product development.
