Eyeball is a football scouting and analytics technology platform focused on elite youth football players. Founded in 2020, the company is registered in Prague, Czech Republic, and operates across Europe and Africa. It provides video-based performance analysis of youth players and statistical tools for football clubs, coaches, and national federations replacing more traditional forms of scouting.
Eyeball was established to modernize the identification and development of youth football talent using data and technology. The platform combines high-definition video recording with artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze individual player performance. It is designed to support scouts, coaches, and clubs in tracking and assessing young players.
As of 2025, Eyeball covers 28 countries and monitors over 160,000 players aged 12 to 21. The platform captures more than 750 games each weekend and serves over 700 football clubs. Eyeball's services include match video, player profiles, heat maps, and performance metrics. Players themselves have access to their own profiles via a mobile application.
History
[edit]The concept for Eyeball was developed in February 2021, aiming to address inefficiencies in youth player scouting. The platform was launched in April 2022 as a video-based scouting tool for elite youth football.
By October 2022, Eyeball had expanded to ten countries and was recording over 300 matches weekly using 4K video equipment. The platform has since been adopted by professional football clubs across Europe, many of which have integrated it into their academy recruitment processes.
Eyeball now operates across 14 youth age categories in Central Europe, Scandinavia, and West Africa. It has been featured in several media outlets and was recognized as a "Champion of Business" by FedEx in 2025.[1]
