## About

Based in Georgia, US, and founded in 2018, Press Sports App Inc. operates as a developer of a mobile sports application built for athletes, enabling them to promote their highlights on social media for fans and coaches to see. The company was co-founded by Conrad Cornell and Drew Williams and is backed by investors led by General Catalyst in a USD 1.5 million Seed funding round in September 2021. Press Sports has an eight-person team as of 2021. 

Press Sports is a mobile application that enables athletes a platform to showcase their highlights and training videos and get exposure to coaches, scouts, fans, and media companies. It also provides access to coaches and scouts to discover and recruit new talents through the footage on these recruits that are available on the app for free. The mobile app also has an online store that sells sports apparel.

Press Sports plans to further develop its product including launching Press Sports on the Android app store, refining the algorithm, and creating web profiles for athletes so recruiters who don’t have the app can still see their reels. It also plans to add features that allow college athletes to monetize their profiles and increase its staff to 13.
