What is SquadX
SquadX is the AI assistant coach for handball. Lucas, the assistant inside SquadX, plans the season, builds training sessions from a handball-specific drill library, prepares matches and follows every player, grounded in the methodology of EHF Master Coach Gintaras Savukynas and the team's own data. The coach reviews and owns every decision.
SquadX is not a generic team management app and not generic AI. Every workflow, metric and drill is shaped around handball, and every answer Lucas gives traces back to a real coaching method.
