Why Coach Play Studio
Your playbook stops being a stack of PDFs
A play drawn in a whiteboard app is a picture. A play stored as structured data is something you can animate, send and keep, from one source.
One structured play format
Every play is stored as data, not a picture. The same play renders as a diagram, an animation, a printable image and a video without being redrawn.
Animation with real timing
Each step carries its own timing, and actions overlap the way basketball does: the screen arrives, then the cut comes off it. Not a slideshow.
Send it four ways
A link anybody can open, a sharp picture of any step, an embed for your own site, or an MP4 for the team chat. You choose the door, play by play.
Your team needs no accounts
A share link opens in any browser: no sign-up, no app, no seats to buy. Edits show up on the link straight away, and unsharing takes it back.
The play and drill libraries
The Coach plan includes libraries of plays and drills we draw and publish. Save a copy of any of them and adapt it to your personnel.
Yours to keep
Stop paying and every play you drew stays yours: viewable, editable, shareable. You just cannot add another until you are back.

Frequently asked questions
Short answers to what coaches ask before their first play.
What is Coach Play Studio?
Coach Play Studio is a basketball play studio in the browser. You draw a play, it animates with real timing, and you send it as a link, a picture, an embed or a video.
Who is Coach Play Studio for?
Basketball coaches. Head coaches and assistants who need to put a play in front of their players, their staff or a colleague, on a phone, a tablet or a laptop, courtside or at a desk.
Do players need accounts to see my plays?
No. You send a share link and it opens in any browser with no sign-up and no app. Edits appear on the link straight away, and you can unshare it whenever you want.
How much does Coach Play Studio cost?
Free keeps three plays with a picture, a share link and an embed included. The Coach plan is $9 a month, $24 a quarter or $90 a year, and adds unlimited plays, video export and the libraries. A one-off week pass is $5.
Is there a free trial?
The free plan is the trial: three plays, no card, no expiry. Paid plans also carry a 30 day money back guarantee. Not for you? Write to us and it comes back, no questions.
What happens to my plays if I cancel?
You keep every play you drew: viewable, editable, shareable. The only thing a lapsed account cannot do is add another play until it is paying again.
Does Coach Play Studio include drills?
Yes. Drills are their own thing, with their own shelf and their own library, because a coach looks for a drill differently than a play and on a different day.
Does Coach Play Studio include a practice planner?
No. It draws plays and drills and gets them to people. Practice schedules, rosters and messaging stay in whatever your team already uses.
How do I sign in?
By magic link. You type your email, we send a link, and opening it signs you in. If you are new, that same link creates your account. There is no password.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. Touch is a first-class input: every screen works on a phone and a tablet, and you can add the Studio to your home screen with shortcuts straight to your plays, drills and the library.
