AWRE and WIN Reality Partner to Deliver Automated AI Swing Analysis for Baseball and Softball
Every AWRE swing now comes with automated SwingAI biomechanics analysis—giving coaches instant, data-driven feedback without extra steps.
Share
With this integration, every swing captured on the AWRE platform will now be automatically analyzed by WIN Reality's SwingAI technology —delivering actionable mechanical insights with no extra recording, uploads, or workflow changes.
This partnership brings together AWRE's industry leading video capture and analytics platform with WIN Reality's advanced AI swing analysis technology, delivering two major benefits for AWRE users:
Maddux + SwingAI:
AWRE's new natural language assistant, Maddux, now taps directly into SwingAI biomechanics data. Coaches and players can ask targeted performance questions like:
'Whose swing score is trending down over the past 3 months?' or 'How has Jesse's hip-shoulder separation changed this season?'
Maddux instantly responds with data-driven, biomechanically backed answers—making it easier for coaches to spot trends, track development, and tailor training plans.
SwingAI Mobile App Access:
In addition to Maddux insights, every AWRE-recorded swing will also sync to the SwingAI mobile app, giving users access to 3D swing visualizations, AI-generated coaching cues, progress tracking tools and personalized training plans. This allows both coaches and players to dive deeper into individual swing mechanics, compare swings over time, and receive personalized drill recommendations based on real swing data.
'Maddux is designed to make complex data accessible and actionable for coaches at every level,' said Chris Clark, CEO of AWRE Sports. 'By integrating SwingAI biomechanic data, we're giving coaches and players a way to ask natural language questions and instantly get meaningful answers, backed by real swing data, all without changing their existing AWRE workflows.'
'This partnership gives coaches and players swing intelligence at scale, across every game, practice, and rep,' said Chris O'Dowd, CEO of WIN Reality. 'By combining AWRE's video capture tools with SwingAI's biomechanics analysis, we're making high-level swing feedback easier to access and apply than ever before.'
The AWRE x SwingAI integration will be available to AWRE users coming in the fall. Learn more and get set up with early beta access at www.winreality.com/awre-maddux-swingai.

Maro Secures $4.3 Million in Seed Funding to Eliminate Human Risk in Cybersecurity
Maro's new cognitive security platform intervenes in the moment, redefining how companies manage human risk across social engineering, insider threats, human error, and ungoverned AI usage NEW YORK, July 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Maro, the cognitive security platform company created to empower security leaders to manage human risk proactively, announced today it successfully raised $4.3 million from Downing Capital Group. With the Maro platform now available, the company plans to use the seed round for team growth, product development, and executing its go-to-market strategy. Maro empowers security leaders to take control of human risk and defend against human error and threats amplified by AI, including social engineering, insider risk, and ungoverned AI usage. Maro's platform dynamically intervenes in the moment to prevent cognitive risks from becoming security or compliance incidents, providing security teams with instant visibility into their workforce's behaviors and intentions. Verizon's 2025 Data Breach Investigation Report (DBIR) cites breaches involving a human element at 60%. Maro reinforces secure behaviors in real-time, securing decision-making in the workflow with use-case-level policy enforcement. "When stress levels are high and attackers use that opportunity to manipulate your workforce into taking risky actions, Maro protects how people think, decide, and act," said Jesse Downing, CEO at Downing Capital Group. "Maro's founding team has deep cybersecurity experience solving human-focused problems, working together across three companies, including several with successful exits." Maro was founded in late 2024 by Jadon Montero, Gwen Betts, and Jen Andre, a repeat cybersecurity founder team with more than 40 years of combined experience building and scaling category-defining security companies. Jadon Montero, Maro's CEO, has deep experience in designing and bringing innovative security solutions to market, including SOAR, EASM, and MDR. Montero also served as a former product leader at Bitdefender, Censys, Rapid7, Komand, and ThreatStack, and began his career studying cyberwarfare under the first United States Director of National Intelligence, John Negroponte. Gwen Betts, CXO, led the global product design team at Rapid7, encompassing detection and response, vulnerability management, and cloud security. She is known for scaling human-centered product solutions in complex domains. Betts was also the founding design and GTM leader at Komand. Jen Andre, CTO, is a repeat founder and technologist with extensive expertise in cybersecurity, including as founder of Komand (acquired by Rapid7) and Threat Stack (acquired by F5). Andre also served as the vice president of product at Greynoise and Rapid7. She built her early career at Symantec and Mandiant as a Security Operations Center (SOC) analyst and product builder, respectively. "Maro was born from our years spent inside broken security workflows where SOC analysts didn't have time to speak directly to every employee who urgently needed their help after legacy tools failed to stop the employee from taking a risky action," said Montero. "The acceleration of generative AI, coupled with remote work and shadow software as a service (SaaS), exponentially increases the risk that users run afoul of company policy without even knowing it. With Maro, governance, risk, and compliance happen in the moment so that human risk is managed and mitigated - before issues even reach the SOC." Maro was developed with input from 50 CISO and CIO leaders in financial technology, healthcare technology, and retail. Overwhelmingly, these leaders identified AI usage governance as the most pressing human risk factor today, followed closely by targeted social engineering and insider risk. They emphasized that existing human risk tools generated excessive noise, lacked visibility at the usage level (where most knowledge work occurs: in the browser), and lacked enforceable policies responsive to both timing and behavioral context. As a result, security teams struggled to demonstrate ROI or drive measurable reductions in human risk. With Maro, security leaders can: Enforce a behavioral policy that integrates GRC oversight into everyday workflows, transforming static rules into real-time behavioral controls. Prevent data loss to AI Chatbots and stop sensitive data exposure without disrupting productivity or blocking innovation. Intercept real-time deception like clickjacking and typosquatting with browser-level protection. Intercept intelligent social engineering that catches psychological attacks at the moment they strike, including Adversary-in-the-Browser and other AI-powered threats. Improve CIS coverage by 52% in as little as a week. Maro's platform is designed to intuitively identify, shape, and mitigate human risk factors in real-time, providing leaders with a novel way to prevent incidents before they occur. Security leaders can learn more and request access to Maro at About MaroMaro empowers security leaders to proactively manage human risk across social engineering, insider threats, human error, and ungoverned AI usage. Maro engages directly with risky user behavior as it happens. While conventional solutions depend on repetitive training or static policy enforcement, Maro uses AI to monitor real-world usage, classify intent, and deliver context-aware, just-in-time interventions.

2025 MLB All-Star Game: Building the Best Braves Lineup
America's Team? Back in the 1990s, it felt like every TV was tuned into an Atlanta Braves game. But the lore stretches beyond the triple-threat of Glavine, Maddux, and Smotlz. After all, this team is where Hammerin' Hank made home run history. Either way, when you hear that Tomahawk Chop, you know things are about to get goin.' Manager: Bobby Cox Cox had an underwhelming first managerial stint with the Braves, as they posted three losing seasons and peaked at an 81-80 record in 1980 across his four years in the role (1978-81). But then Cox returned as Atlanta's manager during the 1990 season, and a team rotting at the bottom of its division became one of the best in the sport for the next decade. Posting six 100-plus-win seasons, making the playoffs in 14 of his first 15 seasons, winning five National League pennants and, most notably, the 1995 World Series, the Braves were a powerhouse in the 1990s and early 2000s under Cox, who was a three-time NL Manager of the Year Award winner. Cox, whose second stint in the Braves dugout lasted from 1990-2010, is far and away first in Braves history with 2,149 managerial wins. Starting pitcher: Greg Maddux Maybe the best pitcher of all time played in Atlanta from 1993-2003 and had the best run of his MLB career in a Braves uniform. Across his 11 seasons in northern Georgia, Maddux led MLB in both ERA and WHIP four times apiece, won three NL Cy Young awards and was money in the postseason, recording a combined 2.81 ERA in 29 appearances/27 starts, which included two complete games. Maddux, who was part of Atlanta's 1995 World Series triumph and one of, if not the best pitching trio in MLB history with John Smoltz and Tom Glavine, is fifth in Braves history among pitchers with a 66.2 WAR and 1,828 strikeouts, sixth with 194 wins, seventh with a 2.63 ERA, eighth with 2,526.2 innings pitched and 10th with 21 shutouts. Reliever/closer: Craig Kimbrel Kimbrel debuted out of Atlanta's bullpen in 2010 and instantly became one of the most dominant relievers in the sport. The right-hander, who became the team's full-time closer in 2011, had the distinct routine of dangling his arms forward like a bat while facing home plate before he came to a set. And when Kimbrel came to a set, he threw the gas, and impact contact from hitters was few and far between. Kimbrel was an All-Star in each of his four complete seasons with the Braves (2011-14) and led the NL in saves in each of those four seasons. Despite pitching just five-plus seasons for the franchise, Kimbrel, who made one appearance for the team in 2025, is first in Braves history with 186 saves, while posting a combined 1.43 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 477 strikeouts across 290.0 innings pitched. Catcher: Brian McCann McCann was one of the best catchers of his generation and a pillar for the Braves. Suiting up for the team from 2005-13 — and one more time in 2019 — McCann earned seven All-Star nods and five Silver Slugger awards. From 2006-13, McCann averaged 21 home runs and 80 RBIs per season, while posting a combined .277/.350/.477 slash line, while serving as a stabilizing force behind the plate. Plus, McCann was the 2010 All-Star Game MVP, as he hit a go-ahead, three-run double in the Midsummer Classic. 1B: Freddie Freeman Freeman was the face of a decade of Braves baseball, playing for the franchise from 2010-21. The 6-foot-4 first baseman was poised and a potent force from the left side of the plate, driving pitches to all fields, hitting for both contact and power at a high level and playing Gold Glove-caliber defense at first base. In Freeman's last season with the Braves, they won the 2021 World Series. Freeman, who won the 2020 NL MVP Award and was a five-time All-Star with the franchise, is third in Braves history with 367 doubles, sixth with 271 home runs and a 43.0 WAR, seventh with 1,704 hits, 10th with both 969 runs scored and a .509 slugging percentage and 10th with a .384 on-base percentage. 2B: Ozzie Albies Albies has been one of the best second basemen in the sport since entering the league in 2017. A two-time Silver Slugger and three-time All-Star, Albies has done damage from both sides of the plate, smacking pitching down both lines. In 2019, Albies led the NL with 189 hits and totaled 30-plus home runs and 100-plus RBIs in both 2021 and 2023. The 5-foot-7 Albies is adept at turning double plays with ease. Of course, he started at second for Atlanta's 2021 championship team, going 2 for 4 in its closeout Game 6 victory. 3B: Chipper Jones One of the best switch hitters of all time played his entire career in Atlanta (1993-2012). In what was just his first full season in the big leagues (1995), Jones found himself playing the hot corner for a team that went on to win the World Series, and Jones was spectacular that postseason, totaling three home runs and eight RBIs, while posting a .364/.446/.618 slash line. And then Jones proceeded to drive in 100-plus runs in each of the next eight seasons and become one of the elite third basemen in the sport. An eight-time All-Star and two-time Silver Slugger, Jones is first in Braves history with 1,512 walks, second with 2,726 hits, 1,623 RBIs, 1,619 runs scored, 549 doubles and a .401 on-base percentage, third with 468 home runs and an 85.3 WAR and tied for third with a .529 slugging percentage. SS: Johnny Logan Logan spent the first 10-plus seasons of his career with the Braves (1951-61), with whom he was among the faces of the 1957 World Series championship team. A four-time All-Star, Logan was stellar at the middle-infield position, highlighted by a 14.3 defensive WAR, which ranks fourth in Braves history. Logan, who led the NL with 37 doubles in 1955, seldom struck out and finished his Braves tenure with a career .270 batting average. OF: Henry Aaron Aaron was the greatest Brave of them all. With overwhelming power from the right side, Aaron totaled 30-plus home runs in 15 seasons, 100-plus RBIs in 11 seasons and 200-plus hits in three seasons with the Braves, with whom he played for from 1954-74. Part of the 1957 World Series team, Aaron totaled three runs and seven RBIs in the Fall Classic, while posting a .393/.414/.786 slash line and winning series MVP honors. Playing all but his last two MLB seasons with the Braves and an All-Star in every season but his 1954 rookie campaign for the Braves, Aaron is first in franchise history with 3,600 hits, 733 home runs, 2,202 RBIs, 2,107 runs scored, 600 doubles, a .567 slugging percentage and a 142.7 WAR. He's also sixth with 240 stolen bases and 10th with a .310 batting average. The two-time batting champion and three-time Gold Glover is second in MLB history with 755 career home runs. OF: Dale Murphy Murphy was a stud. Playing the first 14-plus seasons of his career with the Braves (1976-90), Murphy came up as a catcher before being moved to first base and went on to play all three outfield positions. At the plate, he cranked. Murphy, a four-time Silver Slugger, five-time Gold Glover and seven-time All-Star, was a vital source of power for the Braves in the 1980s, highlighted by him winning two NL MVP awards. Murphy is fourth in Braves history with both 371 home runs and 1,143 RBIs, fifth with a 47.2 WAR and sixth with 1,901 hits, 1,103 runs scored and 306 doubles. OF: Andruw Jones Jones is one of the best players not in the Hall of Fame. After shuffling positions, Jones became Atlanta's primary center fielder in 1998, and he proceeded to win 10 consecutive Gold Gloves. At the plate, Jones was a force to be reckoned with, totaling 35 home runs and 103 RBIs per season from 1998-2007. His most productive season came in 2005 when Jones totaled an NL-high with both 51 home runs and 128 RBIs. Jones, a five-time All-Star, is first in Braves history with a 26.6 defensive WAR, fourth with a 61.0 overall WAR, fifth with both 368 home runs and 1,117 RBIs, seventh with 1,045 runs scored and ninth with 1,683 hits. DH: Eddie Mathews Matthews spent the first 15 seasons of his career with the Braves (1952-66), with whom he was one of the elite players of his era and part of their 1957 title team. A 12-time All-Star, Matthews was consistently one of the best power hitters in the sport and also among the best at drawing walks, leading the NL in bases on balls four times. Matthews is second in Braves history with 493 home runs and a 93.9 WAR, third with 2,201 hits, 1,388 RBIs and 1,452 runs scored and sixth with a .517 slugging percentage.
