  • GSA Report consumer-facing newsletter
  • Company website and registration management for showcases
  • Backend algorithms and analytics components

Project Solution

Skycap designed, built, and maintains a MEAN-stack SaaS product called The Edge, tailored for scouting, game-by-game analysis, and coaching tools.
