Feet a shade wider than shoulders, weight balanced, quiet hands at the shoulder. Looks calm and ready — a good starting point.
Exactly what parents get back — from one photo.
AthleteIQ analyzes a single swing photo with an AI coach and writes back a plain-English breakdown. No radar guns, no frame counters, no fake precision numbers. This is the actual format your report will use.
The read on this swing
Balanced setup, quiet head, and a level path through contact — this is a line-drive profile with room to grow into gap power once the load deepens by a beat. The hands are inside the ball, the finish repeats. Honest feedback: she gives away timing on off-speed, and the back elbow tucks a hair early on the outside pitch.
Swing phases
Small, controlled hand load with a gentle inward turn of the front shoulder. The load is on time but a little shallow — leaves some power on the table.
Short, closed stride with the front foot landing under the front knee. Head stays over the middle — great for tracking the ball.
Barrel meets the ball out in front of the plate with a level, slightly upward path. Hands are inside the ball. This is a line-drive contact point.
Both arms extend through the zone but the back elbow tucks a hair early on outside pitches, which can pull the head off the ball.
High, one-handed finish over the front shoulder with the back foot on its toe. Balance is held — no falling out of the swing.
Strengths
- • Balanced stance and a quiet head through contact
- • Level bat path — punishes middle-third pitches
- • Front shoulder stays closed longer than most at this age
- • Holds the finish — mechanics repeat instead of breaking down
Things to work on
- • Load is a touch shallow — costs her a beat of timing on off-speed
- • Back elbow tucks early on outside pitches, which pulls the head
- • Grip pressure locks the wrists on inside fastballs
- • Stride can drift open when she's ahead in the count
Every report includes a work-on list. There's always something to sharpen — that's the whole point.
She hits like
Compact, contact-first hitter with a level path and a quiet head. Both hunt line drives before power.
How she keeps her front shoulder closed on inside pitches — the small 'no' with the chin before she fires.
Balanced load, patient stride, and a high one-handed finish. Both extend well through the middle of the field.
The pause at the top of her load — worth mimicking during tee work to fix the shallow-load habit.

The Pro Report adds the fix list.
Every "work-on" gets a matching drill and a 4-week milestone. Here's the shape.
Set the tee middle-away. Add an exaggerated 'show the back pocket' pause at the top of the load before firing. If she can't feel the coil, the pause needs to be longer.
Place a second tee just outside the contact tee. She has to drive the barrel through both without knocking the outside tee. Forces extension before the elbow tucks.
Each mapped to a specific work-on, with reps and a "how you'll know it's working" check.
4-week roadmap
- WEEK 1Deepen the loadMilestone: Consistent 'show the back pocket' pause on 8 of 10 tee reps
- WEEK 2Extend through the outside pitchMilestone: Clears the two-tee gate 8 of 10 times without a hit-tee
- WEEK 3Loose grip, snappy handsMilestone: Towel drill produces an audible snap on 9 of 10 reps
- WEEK 4Repeatable finish under game speedMilestone: Holds finish for a full 3-count on 9 of 10 front-toss reps
