Huupe (@HuupeOfficial), the first AI-powered smart gaming console, is redefining sports tech by embedding AI-driven performance training directly into the hoop. Backed by $21M in strategic capital and praised by NBA owners and executives as “a billion-dollar disruptor,” Huupe is gaining traction as the operating system for next-generation athletic development—starting with basketball. With AI-native infrastructure and premium positioning, Huupe features a cutting-edge computer vision system that captures and analyzes every shot, movement, and metric—real-time coaching based on that data. It doesn’t just display stats—it teaches, corrects, and adapts to the player, evolving with them over time.
