Bunkai was founded during the COVID-19 pandemic because we saw a need for people to train anywhere they found themselves, whenever they wanted.
At the same time, countless sports professionals were moving their businesses online but were not able to scale any kind of personalized approach you'd expect.
So, Bunkai is a next-generation social training platform, using the latest in AI / computer vision to offer a new experience in digital sports training that helps both coaches and clubs, as well as athletes and people at home.
Wout and Pedro first met during a randomized group call at Y Combinator's Startup School. With similar interests and family situations, and complementary skills and abilities, they decided to stay in touch afterwards.
A few months later, it was a sunny day in Belgium (not lying, it happens!) when they met up on a terrace for a few drinks, and the rest is history as they say.
