The founder story

Built alone.
Launched worldwide.

I'm Lorenzo Peluso, a solo founder. I built AthlyAI from scratch β€” every line of code, every design decision, every product iteration β€” while watching talented athletes from Italy, Brazil, and across the world struggle to navigate a US recruiting process that was never designed for them.

The problem was obvious: international student-athletes had no affordable, intelligent guide. College coaches had no easy way to discover global talent. I built AthlyAI to close that gap.

In less than two years, I shipped a full AI platform: 25,000+ coaches, 9 languages, an AI advisor named Jarvis, a complete CRM for coach outreach, and scholarship tools used by athletes across 40+ countries.

Now I'm ready to scale. This is the first time I'm bringing on external capital β€” to build the team, the data, and the distribution to become the undisputed #1 in athletic recruiting.

Why invest

The right moment to get in.

A massive underserved market

Over 1 million high school athletes worldwide dream of playing college sports in the USA. Less than 2% have professional guidance. AthlyAI is the first AI-native solution built specifically for this gap.

Recurring SaaS with strong unit economics

Subscription tiers from €9 to €99/month. Low CAC through SEO and organic content. High LTV β€” the recruiting journey spans 1–2 years per athlete.

Global by design

Built in 9 languages from day one. Italy, Brazil, UK, Germany, Spain, France, Portugal, Japan, US. International athletes are the fastest-growing segment of US college sports.

AI moat that compounds over time

Every coach interaction, email sent, and recruiting outcome trains our models. The more athletes use AthlyAI, the smarter and more accurate Jarvis becomes.

The vision

Every athlete in the world
should have a fair shot
at a US scholarship.

The college recruiting industry is broken. It's opaque, expensive, and dominated by traditional advisors who charge $5,000+ for what AI can do better, faster, and for a fraction of the cost. AthlyAI is here to democratize it.
