Problem
Equestrian training often lacks objective feedback, making it difficult for riders to identify areas for improvement in their technique and for trainers to provide targeted guidance. Traditional training methods rely heavily on subjective observation, which can be inconsistent and may not capture subtle but important aspects of horse and rider biomechanics. This can lead to plateaus in performance and increased risk of injury for both horse and rider.
Solution
Ridesum offers an AI-powered mobile platform that delivers real-time analytics of horse and rider performance, providing objective insights to enhance training effectiveness. Using a smartphone camera, the app analyzes video of training sessions to assess key metrics such as head carriage and rider seat position. The platform also facilitates digital training sessions via live streaming, allowing riders to connect with trainers remotely, reducing travel and potential injuries to the horse. Ridesum's Equi Diary feature enables riders to track their progress, monitor their horse's well-being, and gain valuable insights through data-driven statistics.
