About

Gradient Sports is a Cincinnati-based soccer analytics company that spun out of Pro Football Focus (as PFF FC) in 2024. It produces player performance grades and broadcast-derived tracking data covering leagues worldwide, and sells that data through club, media, and consumer products. Customers include professional clubs in the Premier League and across Europe and the U.S., as well as media organizations, and the company recently launched coverage of the NWSL.

Grades how well every player executes each action in a match, not just outcomes, and extracts tracking data from broadcast footage rather than in-stadium camera installs, giving comparable performance data across leagues worldwide.
