GameStrat Exhibiting at ILEETA conference in St Louis, March 16-18

Monday, March 16th, 2026

GameStrat is excited to announce that it will be exhibiting at the upcoming ILEETA conference in St Louis, MO March 16-18.

Founded in 2016, GameStrat initially focused on developing video capture and instant replay systems for sports team coaching staffs. Following a successful market launch and adoption by over 1,500 sports teams in US and Canadian football, hockey, and lacrosse leagues, a US SOCOM element approached them in 2020 with a problem statement: Their shoot house facility had a CCTV system configured for video capture, but students and instructors had to leave the training area to go to a control room and manually replay the video feed for review after each training cycle. This significantly delayed the training cycle and instructors frequently expressed frustration with the user interface’s technical aspects. Consequently, the shoot house’s video capture capability was never used during training evolutions because its disadvantages greatly outweighed its benefits. They wanted a tactical training version of the GameStrat system because it offered users an intuitive, user-friendly format which allowed live-streaming and replay of the video feed to a handheld tablet for instant review during after-action review debrief sessions.

Following development for USSOCOM, GameStrat’s AAR video capture and replay system has been adopted by several SOF and law enforcement SWAT teams. GameStrat’s AAR system enhances after-action review debrief processes by allowing instructors and students to quickly review decisions, communication, and movement during training scenarios. It provides benefit for military organizations, tactical teams, and frontline law enforcement training environments where rapid visual feedback can improve learning outcomes.

GameStrat’s AAR system enables instructors to capture multiple video feeds during live training and immediately identify and replay key moments for debriefing and analysis. The system is designed for simple deployment and operation in training facilities, shoot houses, etc. serving as either a permanent or temporary setup. It can also integrate with existing IP camera infrastructure when required. For more information visit: www.gamestrat.com/tactical-instant-replay
