Padmi

padmi.es ↗ ·Madrid ·Seed

Padmi is a Madrid-based sports-tech startup that has built an AI-powered padel analysis app: court-mounted cameras record amateur matches and proprietary computer-vision models turn the video into advanced statistics (shot types and counts, ball speed, distance covered, heat maps), automatic highlight clips and virtual-coach advice for players, plus an engagement product for clubs. Founded in 2022, it raised a first round of €541K in March 2023 led by Dozen Investments, followed by an €810K round from Swanlaab Tech Fund II together with CDTI Innovación's Innvierte, taking total funding to roughly $1.5M. It was the first startup to win the #MVPBooster programme and has since expanded internationally, including a partnership with Padel Tech to equip U.S. padel clubs.
