Timing is the Problem
We’re the Solution
The Free Tools Were Never Just Tools
Most people don’t realize that the free apps we’ve released—Swing Time to All 25 locations Calculator, Pitch Velocity to all 25 Locations Calculator, Ball Flight Distance Calculator, Average Pitch time and Velocity Calculator and Tempo Trainer Lite—are not standalone utilities. Each one is a functional preview of a larger, integrated system.
They exist to show how timing, spatial constraints, and physical output can be calculated and applied with precision. These apps simulate isolated aspects of a swing capture and decision model, giving players and coaches access to tools they’ve never had before. But what they are really doing is pointing forward—toward the complete architecture of the xFactor Hitting System.
The same is true of the Pitch Contribution to Exit Velocity Calculator available on our website. It isn’t just a novelty. It reflects the kind of outcome modeling our system performs internally, where pitch velocity, swing speed, contact depth, and launch dynamics all contribute to final ball flight predictions and decision support.
Together, these free tools are the surface layer. Beneath them is a single data structure and logic framework that connects:
- The captured swing
- The timing constraints imposed by the pitch
- The decision and reaction process
- The projected outcome of each swing in real time
The free versions simplify the problem. The full system solves it.
Next Step: Building the Future of Swing Capture
This June 2025, we are entering the next phase of development for the xFactor Swing Dynamics Pro™, our multi-patented swing capture system that measures total swing execution time from decision to contact. This is not another data-collection gadget. It is the foundation of a system that introduces exclusive, granular swing time metrics alongside familiar bat orientation metrics, allowing hitters and coaches to isolate inefficiencies with objective, actionable data.
This fall/winter, we are launching a limited hardware release for pilot testing. A select group of elite hitting coaches and baseball influencers will receive early production units. These are not consumer devices. They are tools, placed intentionally with individuals capable of validating performance in real environments.
This release is not the end. It is the first step toward our larger objective: full deployment of the xFactor Hitting System, including the AI Swing Pilot™ powered by the Swing Alert™ engine, Predictive Modeling System, and integrated video analysis system.
We are building a complete ecosystem. It will not just measure swings. It will solve them by replacing coaching interpretations through objective AI guidance.
If you are a coach interested in participating in the pilot or an investor who sees the long-term value in this approach, contact us.

Why Everything You Think About the Swing Might Be Backwards Podcast
Today, we’re flipping conventional swing theory on its head. While most coaches obsess over mechanics and movement patterns, we’re going straight to the only thing that matters: contact. In this episode, we’ll explore a new model that starts not with how the swing looks, but with where and when the bat has to be in space to hit the ball flush. It’s a shift from stylistic coaching to objective, measurable truth—and it just might change the way you think about hitting forever.
Why Everything You Think About the Swing Might Be Backwards
Traditional baseball instruction emphasizes swing mechanics—angles, planes, and movements. However, this model proposes a paradigm shift: start with the objective—precise contact—and work backward. By mapping the exact 3D spatial positions where successful contact occurs across all 25 locations in the strike zone, this model focuses on where and when the bat must be in space, irrespective of swing style or intent. This approach offers a neutral, empirical foundation for understanding hitting, challenging conventional mechanics-first methodologies.
