Problem
Many recreational athletes and sports participants lack affordable, on-demand coaching, relying instead on self‑practice or occasional lessons, which limits skill development and confidence. Additionally, excessive screen time often replaces active play, reducing opportunities for real‑world sport engagement.
Solution
Kabuni offers a portable, AI‑powered coaching system called Dada that delivers real‑time feedback on every shot or movement directly to the user’s device. By embedding the coach in a kitbag, athletes can receive instant analysis and corrective cues while playing in any location, without needing a human trainer on site. The platform encourages frequent practice, helping users build confidence, improve skills, and foster social connections through shared sport experiences. Kabuni also provides a community program for schools and local groups to become Kabuni Scouts, enabling them to lead and grow the sport within their communities.
