Built for programs. Protecting athletes.

The Problem

Your compliance office cannot review every deal before it is signed

Athletes are receiving NIL offers from agents, local brands, and collectives — often with pressure to sign quickly. Exclusivity clauses can conflict with team sponsors. Pay-for-play language can trigger eligibility flags. Perpetual image rights can follow an athlete long after the deal ends. Most athletes have no way to identify any of this before they put their name on it. By the time compliance sees it, the damage is done.

What Your Program Gets

🎓

Eligibility Risk Flagged Early

Catches pay-for-play language, exclusivity conflicts, and disclosure gaps before the deal reaches your compliance office — not after.

⚡

Full Breakdown in Under 60 Seconds

Athletes stop asking coaches what "exclusivity" or "perpetual image rights" means. They arrive to your office knowing exactly what they signed.

📤

Compliance Gets a Summary, Not a PDF

One tap sends your compliance staff a clean deal summary — compensation, obligations, flags, and deadlines — instead of a 12-page contract to parse on their own.

📅

Missed Deliverables Tracked

One missed post can forfeit full payment or trigger a dispute. Athletes track every obligation across every active deal so it never becomes your problem.

💬

Athletes Ask the AI, Not You

Athletes get clause-specific answers based on their actual uploaded agreement — before they walk into your office with the wrong questions.

🏆

A single score gives athletes and your staff a fast read on deal risk across exclusivity, image rights, payment terms, deliverables, renewal, and termination.

Summary Shared

Athlete shares a clear deal summary with coach, parent, advisor, attorney, or compliance office

Your compliance staff is still the authority. This just means athletes arrive prepared.

The Playbook does not give legal advice and does not replace your compliance office. It gives athletes context — so when they walk in, they understand what they signed, what questions to ask, and what needs review. Your staff spends less time on the basics and more time on the decisions that actually matter.
