Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Liat.ai's real-time AI commentary platform.

Liat.ai is a real-time AI football commentary platform that uses computer vision to detect events on the pitch and delivers authentic, emotionally expressive spoken commentary in multiple languages, under a second from event to air, covering any football match for under $10.

Liat.ai processes a live video feed using dozens of proprietary lightweight models that combine inputs with minimal latency to detect and track players, the ball, and key pitch positions. When an event occurs, whether a goal, foul, corner, or substitution, the system classifies it within milliseconds, enriches it with historical context and live match data, then generates and delivers spoken commentary in real time with end-to-end latency of under one second.

Liat.ai delivers full match commentary for under $10 per match, compared to $1,000 or more for a human commentary team. This makes broadcast-quality commentary financially accessible to leagues, clubs, and broadcasters of every size.

Liat.ai detects events such as goals, passes, and fouls within milliseconds. The end-to-end latency from an event occurring on the pitch to spoken commentary being output is under one second. Partners can tune this latency to balance speed against quality and accuracy based on their specific needs.

Liat.ai supports multiple languages including English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese, with more available on request. Commentary is delivered with accent-accurate voices and culturally appropriate phrasing, with extensive customisation options to suit any market or broadcast style.

Liat.ai detects over 30 event types including goals, fouls, free kicks, kick offs, penalties, corners, substitutions, yellow and red cards, throw-ins, shots, headers, crosses, passes, dribbles, contests, and ball out of play. Each event triggers contextually relevant commentary shaped by the match situation and historical data.

Liat.ai is built for broadcasters, OTT and streaming platforms, football leagues, clubs, federations, sports-tech platforms, schools, coaches, and individual viewers. It is applicable at every level of the game, from top-flight professional leagues to youth academies and amateur clubs.
