Yes. 1st Touch works from the match footage instead of sensors: a trained analyst tags every action you make, live, and each one becomes a clip you can watch on your phone.
Sensors register contact with the ball, so they count touches and kicks well. Whether the pass reached a teammate, or the duel was won, needs someone watching. At 1st Touch an analyst records the outcome of every action, and a second person checks it.
Playermaker sells a sensor kit together with an app subscription, priced by region. 1st Touch prices per player and shows its prices: match packs from 70 € a match, or a membership for the whole season.
