CTO Jonathan Wills is a serial entrepreneur who sold his image recognition firm that he founded to GoPro in 2016. Uplift's Chief Scientist, Rahul Rajan, earned his Ph.D. in machine learning at Carnegie Mellon University.

Uplift gives you the ability to provide real-time feedback, replay and review highlights in-class, and annotate on-the-go to correct technique and improve movement. It’s live remote classes and interactive training set a new standard for coaching and training. Uplift`s browser-based platform also enables coaches and trainers to easily monetize their classes, whether they are personal 1:1 training sessions or small group classes.

You can literally in 5 minutes sign up, create a class and be on your way to grow income from live remote classes.”
