What is AI Swing Analyzer?

18Birdies AI Swing Analyzer is a golf coach in your pocket that helps you improve your swing anytime and anywhere.

Simply record or upload a swing video and AI Swing Analyzer will analyze how your body moves throughout the swing, identify your highest-priority area for improvement, and create a personalized drill plan designed to help you build a more consistent swing and shoot lower scores.

Whether you're a beginner looking to develop better fundamentals or an experienced golfer searching for more consistency, AI Swing Analyzer provides personalized feedback based on your unique swing.

How does AI Swing Analyzer Work?

AI Swing Analyzer uses advanced motion-detection technology to evaluate your swing and compare key positions to professional swing models.

After analyzing your swing, AI Swing Analyzer will:

• Identify your highest-priority swing flaw
• Generate a Swing Rating based on your performance
• Highlight strengths and areas for improvement
• Compare your swing to a professional model
• Create a personalized drill plan tailored to your swing

Once your analysis is complete, you'll receive a notification and can review your results directly in the app.

Why Use AI Swing Analyzer?

Improving your golf swing can be difficult without feedback. AI Swing Analyzer helps bridge that gap by providing objective analysis and personalized recommendations without requiring an in-person lesson.

With every analysis, you'll gain a better understanding of your swing mechanics, what is working well, and what areas may be holding you back from playing your best golf.

Where can I find AI Swing Analyzer?

Getting started with AI Swing Analyzer is simple. You can either record a swing directly within the 18Birdies app or upload an existing swing video from your camera roll.

1. Open the 18Birdies app.
2. Tap Improve on the bottom menu bar.
3. Tap AI Swing Analyzer.
4. Tap Analyze My Swing.
5. Record your swing or upload an existing video.
6. Submit your swing for analysis.

Once your swing has been submitted, AI Swing Analyzer will process the video and notify you when your results are ready.

How should I record my swing?

Face On or Down the Line

AI Swing Analyzer supports two recording angles: Face On and Down the Line.

Each angle provides different information about your swing and allows AI Swing Analyzer to evaluate different swing characteristics.

Face On

• Camera positioned facing your chest
• Useful for evaluating:
  • Stance Width
  • Spine Angle
  • Swing Tempo
  • Hip Sway
  • Hip Rotation
  • Head Movement
  • Arm Position

Down the Line

• Camera positioned behind you looking toward the target line
• Useful for evaluating:
  • Leg Angle
  • Spine Angle
  • Hip Rotation
  • Head Movement
  • Butt Position
  • Arm Position
  • Swing Tempo

Because each angle reveals different aspects of the golf swing, submitting both Face On and Down the Line videos provides the most complete analysis and allows AI Swing Analyzer to identify a wider range of swing flaws.

Where Can I Record My Swing?

AI Swing Analyzer can be used almost anywhere.

Whether you're on the golf course, at the driving range, hitting off mats, practicing indoors, taking swings at home, or even making practice swings at work, the most important factors are having enough space to complete your swing and ensuring your full body and club remain visible throughout the video.

The surface you are hitting from is not important. AI Swing Analyzer evaluates your swing motion, not whether you are hitting from grass, turf, or a practice mat.

How Can I Get the Most Accurate Swing Feedback?

To get the most accurate analysis possible:

• Keep your full body and club visible throughout the swing
• Record in a well-lit environment
• Keep your camera stable
• Wear clothing that contrasts with the background
• Avoid excessive shadows
• Position yourself as the primary subject in the frame
• Record both Face On and Down the Line views whenever possible

Occasional movement behind you will not typically affect your analysis. However, minimizing distractions in the background can help improve accuracy
