University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ alumni Joshua Pope and Rowan Ferrabee are revolutionizing professional baseball with their startup, Trajekt Sports. Founded during their undergraduate studies, Trajekt developed the Trajekt Arc, a data-driven pitching simulator that replicates real pitcher mechanics using artificial intelligence and advanced physics. Originally conceived as a high school idea, the technology was refined with help from À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ’s Velocity incubator and support from professors and family. Unlike traditional pitching machines, the Trajekt Arc recreates pitch velocity, spin, and visuals, offering a hyper-realistic training experience for batters. Since securing the Chicago Cubs as their first client in 2021, the system has expanded to 30 pro teams globally. With 21 full-time employees, Trajekt continues to innovate, aiming to bring elite training tools to college athletes and recreational players alike.
