PIN Sport App GmbH
About
PIN Sport App is building the digital infrastructure for grassroots and semi-professional sport.
We started with a simple observation: over 20,000 sports clubs in Switzerland are still recruiting through Instagram posts and WhatsApp messages — while thousands of athletes are looking for the right team and never find it. The tools exist everywhere. The infrastructure to connect them doesn't.
PIN is that infrastructure. A sports-first marketplace where athletes create structured profiles, clubs post open positions, and an AI-powered matching engine connects both sides — based on sport, level, position, and fit. Not on name or background.
The matching engine is grounded in peer-reviewed field research: a study across 1,116 Swiss sports clubs documented that name-based bias systematically blocks access to sport. PIN is the technical answer to that finding — built by the researcher who ran the study.
We are live in Switzerland, backed by VentureKick Stage 2, Talent Kick and Female Founders+, and currently expanding city by city across the DACH region.
Sport should be accessible to everyone. We're building the platform that makes it possible.
