We build software for grounds teams. Bringing the work on the pitch and the information behind it into the same picture.
Sport studies almost every part of performance. We focus on the ground beneath it.
Since 2021, we’ve been bringing turfgrass science and technology together, working with grounds teams to understand what matters on the pitch.
turfcoach is founded. After a first chapter in Leipzig, we move to Berlin to develop the product.
Our first software platform launches, built for the people caring for the playing surface.
We expand into other sports, including lawn tennis, American football and baseball.
turfcoach becomes a tool for pitch management across the 36 stadiums of the Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga.
We develop our own sensors, bringing hardware and software together to connect measurements on the pitch with the information grounds teams use every day.
We’re a team based in Berlin, working with the people who care for pitches around the world. Research, software and conversations on the ground all shape what we build.
Meet turfcoachThe pitch is earning its place in the conversation about sport’s future. Our journey has brought recognition for both technology and sustainability.
turfcoach supports greenkeeping in the Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga, connecting pitch information with the grounds teams, clubs and league.
Our work is also featured in the DFL’s Stadium Innovations report.
In 2023, we won Best Sports Tech Startup at World Football Summit. We were also among the winners of GSIC’s first International Sports Groundbreakers Challenge.
The following year, turfcoach was named Start-up of the Year at the Sports Technology Awards. Another milestone for a company focused on the ground beneath the game.
Understanding a pitch also means understanding the resources that go into it. In 2024, turfcoach was a finalist for the SPOBIS Sustainability in Sport award.
Our paper library explores the turf, the conditions around it and the interaction between the surface and sport.
