Question 1

Does this guarantee I'll get recruited?

Accepted Answer

No. We don't promise or guarantee outcomes. Athlete Intro is a tool that makes your effort count, not replace it. But when a coach opens your profile and sees a polished, complete package (stats, video, academics, all in one place) they see an athlete who is serious, prepared, and committed. That impression matters.

Question 2

What sports does Athlete Intro support?

Accepted Answer

Most high school sports and activities — football, basketball, soccer, volleyball, baseball, softball, track, swimming, lacrosse, tennis, cheerleading, and more. We're adding new sports as we go.

Question 3

Is there a free trial?

Accepted Answer

We offer a 14-day money-back guarantee on all plans. Try Athlete Intro risk-free and see if it's right for your recruiting journey.

Question 4

How do access codes work?

Accepted Answer

You generate unique codes for each coach or program. They enter the code to unlock your full profile. You can track who uses codes and revoke access anytime.

Question 5

Can I update my profile after publishing?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Your profile is always editable. Add new videos, update stats, or change your template design whenever you want. Changes are live instantly.

Question 6

How does the AI teaser generator work?

Accepted Answer

Our AI surfaces headline and summary options based on your profile. You review, pick, and publish. The voice stays yours.

Question 7

Do you host my highlight videos?

Accepted Answer

No. Your profile displays videos from URLs you provide — Hudl, YouTube, Vimeo, or any other platform where your film lives. You maintain full control of your video content on those platforms.

Question 8

Can parents manage multiple athletes?

Accepted Answer

Yes! One account can manage profiles for multiple athletes. Perfect for families with siblings or parents helping multiple students.

Question 9

How much does Athlete Intro cost?

Accepted Answer

Athlete Intro profiles are $399 per year — one annual rate, locked in at signup. Renewal stays at $399.

Question 10

Why do some recruiting platforms offer free profiles?

Accepted Answer

Free tiers are a legitimate business model — they typically monetize through premium upgrades, coach subscriptions, or event fees. It's worth understanding how any platform you use generates revenue, so you know what you're getting. Our model is straightforward: families pay for a professionally built profile. One price, everything included.

Question 11

How is this different from full-service recruiting agencies?

Accepted Answer

Recruiting agencies assign human counselors to manage your process — researching schools, making connections, and guiding outreach. These typically cost $3,000–$7,000+. We're a profile tool: we build you a professional presence, and you manage the outreach and relationships yourself. Different approaches serve different needs — some families use both.

Question 12

Does hiring a recruiting service guarantee my athlete will get a scholarship?

Accepted Answer

No service can guarantee outcomes — and outcomes vary widely. An athlete might land on a roster but ride the bench, or join a program that isn't the right fit, with parents still paying full tuition. There's no guaranteed path.

What we've heard from coaches: they appreciate athletes who show direct initiative. A personalized email from a serious athlete can start a real conversation. Coach likes what they see in your profile, calls your high school coach to ask questions, and a relationship begins. That's how recruiting often works — connections built through genuine outreach, not just database matching.

We built Athlete Intro to give families options, including those who may not have thousands to spend on a full-service recruiter. We chose our lane to serve the broader market. No knock on agencies — different approaches work for different families.

Question 13

Can I use this with a recruiting service?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Athlete Intro works alongside whatever approach you choose. Your profile is yours — use it as the link you share when you do outreach, regardless of what other tools or services you're using.

Question 14

What if I don't have elite stats or metrics?

Accepted Answer

Athlete Intro works for every athlete, whether you have numbers to highlight or your impact doesn't show in a box score. Bring what you have. Coaches recruit for fit, not just stats. Your growth, your role, what you bring to a program. That's the full picture.

Question 15

Coaches say they just use the "eyeball test" — why would a profile matter?

Accepted Answer

That's actually the point. When we talked with coaches, their evaluation checklist included film, other coaches' evaluations, references, character checks (including social media), and what they call “game impact” stats — on top of the in-person eye test. Every item on that list except the physical eyeball test is something a well-built profile delivers. Film links, coach references, academic info, social accounts, character signals — it's all there in one place.

Coaches have options. They can do it the old-school way — calling around, Googling, piecing things together. Many programs also pay for access to recruiting databases that filter athletes algorithmically by size, speed, academics, and other criteria. Those tools serve a real purpose on the coaching side. But from the athlete's perspective, a professional profile puts you in control of your own narrative — not just a line in someone else's search results. When a coach has 200 athletes to evaluate and limited time, the one with everything organized in a single link gets a longer look.

We built Athlete Intro for athletes and families first. If the profile helps them present their story professionally, coaches will pay attention — because it saves them time too.

Question 16

Who owns the data on my profile?

Accepted Answer

You own your data. You control who sees it. If we ever change how data is used, you'll know before it happens, not after. Our model is simple: you pay for a profile, and that profile serves you.

Question 17

What happens to my data?

Accepted Answer

Today, your data powers your profile and nothing else. We don't sell it or share it with third parties. You control visibility, and you can export or delete your information anytime.

Question 18

Can I export my data if I leave?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your information is yours, and you can request a full export at any time. If you cancel your subscription, your profile shifts to teaser mode — gated content is hidden, but your data isn't deleted or locked away.

Question 19

What happens to my profile if I change clubs or teams?

Accepted Answer

Nothing changes. Your profile isn't tied to any club, league, or organization. Switch travel teams, move states, change sports — your profile and history stay with you.

Question 20

Do you verify the stats on profiles?

Accepted Answer

Today, we label data clearly: self-reported, coach-provided, or linked to official sources like MaxPreps. No platform truly verifies every stat at scale — what matters is transparency about where the numbers come from. We encourage athletes to link verifiable sources and include coach contact information.

Question 21

Will you ever sell my information or use it for other purposes?

Accepted Answer

Our current approach: your data powers your profile, period. We don't sell athlete data to coaches, recruiters, or third parties. If our data practices ever evolve, we'll tell you what's changing and why before it takes effect. Transparency is how we earn trust.

Question 22

Is Athlete Intro owned by a larger company or sports organization?

Accepted Answer

No. Athlete Intro is independent. We don't operate athletic programs, run camps, or recruit athletes to our own teams. Our alignment is simple: you pay us, we build your profile, done. No secondary agendas.

Question 23

Will Athlete Intro add AI matching or coach discovery features?

Accepted Answer

We may add discovery or matching tools in the future. If we do, we'll be transparent about how they work — what data powers them, how results are generated, and what you're opting into. You'll always know what's happening with your information. Today, our focus is helping you present yourself professionally when you do the outreach.

The introduction coaches remember.
