Xonic, a US-based company that launched the iTQ golf swing training app in 2022, has been recognised by Fast Company as one of the world’s Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in Sports for 2023.
Fast Company’s annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies highlights the businesses at the forefront of their respective industries, paving the way for the innovations of tomorrow.
The iTQ app allows every golfer to get real-time, customized PGA Professional tips during their round, whenever they need it. By mimicking an actual PGA golf instructor, the technology learns the unique aspects of an individual golfer’s swing and provides real-time quick tips on how to improve.
Since its launch in April last year, the iTQ has been downloaded by golfers in nine countries. Roughly 80% of users are buying the yearly subscription ($24.99), while the rest sign up for monthly ones at $6.99. The iTQ has been ranked the No.1 golf app by Australian Golf Digest and is an official partner of the PGA of Southern California and PGA Ontario.
“Xonic Golf is proud to be recognized for its accomplishments in advancing the world of golf with our cutting-edge technology,” says Eileen Jurczak, CEO of Xonic. “Our award-winning A.I. golf app, the iTQ, is changing the way amateur golfers get the help they need on the course, while also providing teaching pros with key insights for delivering more effective instruction.”
