About · The headquarters of winning

Hurling deserved better.

So we built it. BuaHQ — Bua is Irish for win, victory, triumph — is a hurling-native analysis engine. AI does the heavy lifting; our team quality-checks every page before it ships. Founded in Tipperary in 2026 to put serious tactical analysis in the hands of every club and county.

The story

Tactical analysis was a privilege. We made it a tool.

For a long time, serious tactical analysis sat behind a wall — full-time analysts, expensive software, fortnight-long turnarounds. A handful of setups could afford it. Everyone else — clubs, smaller counties, development squads — made do with whiteboard scribbles, a hunch and the parish grapevine. Not because they cared less. Because the tools weren't built for them.

BuaHQ closes that gap. The engine is a hurling-native AI model — trained on the language of the game, the framework, and the decisions that actually win and lose matches. It produces what used to take an analyst a fortnight in a matter of hours.

Then a human looks at it. Every report gets a quality pass from our team — structure, formatting and framework adherence — before it ships. No jargon, no buzzwords, no half-finished pages. What lands in your inbox is clean, complete and on-brand.

What we believe

Four principles, no compromise.

01

Hurling-specific, not soccer with a sliotar.

Half-forward press, puckout zones, third-man runs, sweeper drift — the engine speaks the language. Generic sports AI doesn't.

02

AI does the read. A human checks the work.

Every dossier gets a quality pass from our team before it ships — structure, formatting, framework adherence. Clean, complete, on-brand.

03

Multiple matches tell the truth.

One match can lie. We cross-reference up to seven of an opponent's recent matches so patterns surface and one-off games don't mislead the plan.

04

Plain English. Actionable. On time.

If a player or selector can't read it standing in the dressing room and act on it, it doesn't belong in the report.

Built for the dressing room

Fifteen on the line.
A staff that knows exactly what's coming.
