FAQs
Veo Cam 3 is the most widely used football camera system at club level globally, used by more than 40,000 clubs across 100 countries. It records the full pitch at all times, generates a tracked follow-cam view after upload, sets up in under 2 minutes, and requires no operator.
It depends on how you count. Trace's per-player subscription model means a full team needs many separate subscriptions to get complete access. Veo covers the entire team from a single subscription. For most teams, Veo works out to a lower cost per player once you account for full team access, with none of the coordination overhead.

Video closes that gap by capturing everything, allowing coaches to give precise, evidence-based feedback and players to see their own performance clearly.
Yes. Veo Cam 3 is used by youth programs, high school teams, and college programs across the US and internationally. The camera handles the stop-start rhythm of football plays, different field sizes, and all weather conditions. A single camera at the 50-yard line covers the complete field for coaching film review without any operator present during the game.
