This is helpful. Sounds like not worth it if you weren’t subscribing already. Our team has veo so we haven’t bothered with Taka bc our kid is U14 and it’s not recruiting time yet. Might be helpful to know how he ranks nationally compared to others in his position though so I thought this might be a good way to find out. He plays 8, 10 and LW or RW but is listed only as a CM in the free Taka profile so who knows what position it would even pick.

Yes. I did not find it informative or very accurate. If you have a lot of positive clips the ranking will likely be higher for a game, simple as that. Suggested development was nothing we did not already know. It did not include some games in the assessment because Taka admittedly struggles to analyze games when the jersey has a light on white number or when there is poor lighting, like late afternoon, low sun. It compares to what position their minutes are recorded the most into Kitman Labs regardless of what position the games and analysis took place at. It showed a ranking just under 20% for attacking mids . . . plays as much CF as AM and for the formation it would be RW not AM anyways.

Curious if anyone here has a kid in MLS 1 that uses the Taka platform. Since the fall regular season concluded we received a marketing email about Taka generating an IDP for our kid based on his game clips. It said something about comparing him to the Top 20% of players in his position and age group. How does this work and did anyone find it valuable?
