How MASV helps Sports Analytics
The Challenge
In pro sports, real-time intelligence wins championships.
Modern sports are data-driven. From 4K game film and optical or LIDAR player tracking, to biometric and wearable sensor data, pro sports datasets are getting larger. And decision-making windows are shrinking fast.
Legacy transfer and shipping drives are too complex and unreliable for fast-moving sports analytics file transfer. Whether prepping for the trade deadline or analyzing prospect performance, you need intelligent managed file transfer that moves as fast as the game.
- Complex legacy tools: FTP and legacy MFT are too brittle, prone to failure, and feature outdated and complicated user interfaces.
- Lightweight standard cloud: Standard file sharing tools like Dropbox and WeTransfer throttle your speed and can’t handle large files.
- Inefficient manual workflows: Traditional MFT either doesn’t offer automation or requires third-party tools for hands-free workflows.
- Spotty Wi-Fi and network congestion: Unreliable venue connections lead to failed uploads and wasted hours for scouts and collaborators in the field.
- Transfer babysitting: When legacy MFT and standard file sharing tools get interrupted, they often require manual restarts from zero.
The MASV solution
MASV ultra-reliable and accelerated transfer for sports analytics.
MASV is the high-performance bridge between the sidelines and your analytics team. While traditional tools crumble under the weight of large datasets or fail on unstable venue Wi-Fi, MASV provides reliable, secure, and accelerated data transfer – no matter the size of file package or connectivity environment.
By removing the technical friction of file movement from anywhere, you’ll spend more time uncovering winning insights and less time watching progress bars.
- Simple to configure and use: No complex software installs, firewall issues, or configuration-simply share a drag-and-drop Portal link and start uploading.
- No limits: MASV has no limits on file package sizes, allowing large file delivery for sports at speeds of 10Gbps-plus.
- No-code automations: Automatically upload game film the moment it’s offloaded from the camera, or route footage into storage without manual intervention.
- Global performance: Achieve maximum speed and reliability from anywhere with a global network of 300-plus servers and channel bonding.
- Rock-solid reliability: Automatically resumes interrupted transfers with checkpoint restart, so you never have to restart an upload from zero.
Built for Sports Data Management: Use Cases
Pro Scouts & Recruiters
Share a branded, browser-based, drag-and-drop MASV Portal link with team personnel and they can upload raw footage and associated metadata of top prospects from anywhere without logging in, installing software, or sitting through tutorials.
Video Coordinators
Upload raw game or practice film directly to the cloud from venues with low connectivity, and have it automatically land in one or multiple cloud or on-prem storage, MAM, DAM, or analytics systems with little to no manual intervention.
Performance Analysts
Move datasets from optical tracking, wearables, LIDAR, and other data sources from the playing surface to integrated storage or other platforms. MASV handles file packages of any size and always retains complex folder structures.
Media Teams
Capitalize on viral moments by getting cinematic-quality highlights from the venue to media teams in seconds using a browser-based uploader and no-code automations for near-real-time social clipping.
Halftime & Post-Game Review
Whether it’s for halftime adjustments or post-game breakdown, get high-res footage to the coaching staff instantly – even in low-connectivity venues – by bonding multiple internet signals for a stronger connection.
Front Office & Operations
Securely share sensitive player info, medical reports, and draft boards with the confidence of in-flight and at-rest encryption, MFA, SSO, RBAC, TPN Gold Shield, SOC 2 Type II, and ISO 27001:2022, on a managed cloud platform that eliminates patch delays.
Streamline Your Tech Stack: Hudl & Catapult Workflows
Hudl & video analysis workflow
MASV eliminates the upload bottleneck for teams using Hudl Sportscode and other performance analysis software:
- Automated export: Set a MASV Watch Folder to monitor your Hudl Sportscode export directory. The moment an analyst finishes a CSV analytics file, a Sportscode XML, or high-bitrate game film, MASV can automatically push the package to one or multiple destinations.
- Remote scouting workflows: Scouts can remotely upload game film via a drag-and-drop, browser-based MASV Portal directly to an S3 cloud storage bucket. The bucket can then serve as a high-speed gateway for Hudl ingest.
Catapult & performance data workflow
Managing the massive datasets generated by the Catapult OpenField analytics platform requires reliable movement of .OFD, .CPF, .CATR, .RAW, and other files:
- Large dataset handling: A single training session generates gigabytes of biometric tracking data per athlete. MASV’s accelerated network and Multiconnect channel bonding moves multi-gigabyte folders from the training ground to central databases fast and with checksum verification.
- API-driven integration: Use the MASV API or Agent to bridge the gap between your local Catapult Data Manager and a remote analytics server, automating the transfer of high-frequency sensor data and GPS totals to ensure updated performance models in close to real time.
Why Elite Teams Choose MASV
Why MASV Over Other File Transfer Tools?
Frequently Asked Questions
MASV is built specifically for high-interference environments where standard connections often fail. Through Multiconnect channel bonding, you can combine multiple internet sources – such as stadium Wi-Fi, 5G mobile hotspots, and Ethernet – into a single, high-speed pipeline. If a connection drops entirely, MASV automatically resumes the transfer using checkpoint restart the moment you’re back online, ensuring you never have to restart a multi-gigabyte upload from zero.
Yes. MASV supports Growing Files, which allows you to begin transferring large video files while they are still being recorded to disk. Instead of waiting until the final whistle to offload a hard drive, your analytics team can receive the footage in near real-time, enabling halftime adjustments and faster post-game breakdowns. Organizations can pair Growing Files with MASV Express, which allows recipients to download files while they’re still uploading.
No. You can create a branded, drag-and-drop, browser-based MASV Portal – a secure file uploaded that can be embedded on any website or SaaS application – and send the link to your scouts. They simply drag and drop their 4K game film or player data into their browser to start the transfer. There are no software installs, plugins, or account logins required for the uploader, making it a frictionless way to collect data from anywhere.
MASV provides enterprise-grade security to protect your competitive advantage. MASV is Trusted Partner Network (TPN) Gold Shield verified, the same security standard used by major Hollywood studios to prevent leaks, and adheres to ISO 27001:2022 and SOC 2 Type II data protection standards. Every transfer is encrypted in flight and at rest, and you can add mandatory password protection, download limits, and expiry dates to ensure only authorized personnel can access sensitive dossiers, training data, tactical footage, and other datasets.
MASV acts as the high-speed ingest layer for your entire tech stack. Through built-in automations, you can set MASV to automatically deliver incoming files directly to your preferred cloud storage (like Amazon S3 or Google Cloud) or media asset manager. From there, your footage can be transferred into tools like Hudl or Catapult.
