In short
Football video analysis can cost nothing but your time, or thousands a year. Tagging software you use yourself starts at about $15 a month. Video platforms for club teams run from about $500 to $2,500 per team per year. AI cameras cost the camera plus a yearly plan. A service that does the analysis for you, like SeeKick, starts at $10 a month, $50 for a coach or analyst and $130 for a club.
The four ways to pay for match analysis
What you pay depends less on the software than on who does the work: you, a paid analyst, or a service.
1. Do it yourself, by hand
Film the match, watch it back and write notes. It costs nothing but time: watching a full match properly takes two to three hours, and that is before you cut any clips. Free video players and a spreadsheet are enough to start. Our guide on how to analyse a football match walks through it.
2. Tagging software
Software that helps you mark the moments, cut clips and draw on the video. You still do the work, faster. In November 2026, public prices ran from about €12 or $15 a month for simple tools to $90 to $450 a month for full analyst software, and some is sold as a lifetime licence.
3. Video platforms and AI cameras
Platforms store, share and stream your video, and some add stats. For club soccer, one large platform listed $500 to $2,500 per team, per year in November 2026. AI cameras record the match for you and sell analysis as an add-on, so the cost is a camera plus a yearly plan plus the add-on.
4. Analysis done for you
You send the video and get the analysis back. With a human analyst this is the most expensive option, often paid per match. SeeKick does it for you by the next evening: every player on both teams named, his running, his clips and a written match report.
What SeeKick costs
| Plan | For | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Player | One player, and a parent; about one full match a month | $10 a month |
| Creator | One person making videos; about two matches a month | $25 a month |
| Coach and analyst | One coach or analyst; about three matches a month | $50 a month |
| Club | The whole staff; about five full matches a month | $130 a month |
Your first match is free, and clubs get 30 days free. A video that cannot be analysed costs nothing. Prices are also shown in euros, pounds and yen on the pricing page.
What to count when you compare
- Hours. Tagging a match by hand takes an evening. A volunteer coach rarely has one spare every week.
- Both teams. Running data from vests covers only your squad. Video covers the opponent too.
- Hardware. A camera you must buy, set up and carry to every match is part of the cost.
- What you can send. A report and clips your players actually watch are worth more than a long list of numbers.
