Executive Summary

Alphas Alliance builds tools for sports programs, coaches and athletes. Its flagship product, AlphaSigns, helps baseball and softball coaches communicate plays through wristband sign cards. Creating these cards by hand took time and made signs easier for opponents to steal. Novatore designed and developed a React web app that lets coaches build, customize and download secure sign cards in minutes. The result: coaches create fully custom sign cards in under 5 minutes, and college programs including UNC, Baylor, Towson and Holy Cross use the app.
