About Us

Why we built MakoApp

Coaching is one of the most rewarding roles in sport — but it’s also one of the most demanding. Critical insights are often scattered, reporting takes too much time, and adapting to challenges can feel reactive instead of proactive.

Unify coaching data in one place

Everything a coach needs, streamlined and accessible without extra work.

Adapt and respond with precision

Quickly identify progress and challenges in training and act with clarity.

Simplify reporting

Effortlessly share progress across teams, groups, 
and athletes.

Motivate and gamify performance

Rank, track, and celebrate the training metrics that matter most, no matter the level.

Meet our team

At Mako, water has shaped our lives. From competition arenas and coaching decks to brand partnerships and product design, we’ve lived sport from every angle — as athletes, coaches, innovators, and creators.

Founder, Designer

Eric Anderson

Eric grew up in competition arenas, stopwatch in hand beside his father. Today, he’s coached national teams in Denmark and Malaysia, guiding swimmers to the Olympics, World Championships, and international podiums. But behind the medals, he saw inefficiency — fragmented tools and endless admin slowing coaches down. Eric co-founded Mako App to streamline the daily workflow and give coaches back what matters most: time and freedom to focus on their athletes. Eric is the driving force behind the functionality and application of Mako App and its products.

Founder, Marketing

Kelly Reed

Kelly brings a rare blend of sports business expertise and coaching experience. As a coach, she has worked with athletes and performance teams at the highest levels — managing the complex demands of training cycles, long-term planning, and performance. Beyond competition arenas, she has built her career in sports brands and partnerships, translating athletic needs into solutions that create real impact. At Mako App, Kelly bridges the gap between coaching insight and product innovation, ensuring the platform not only works for coaches but elevates the value it brings to clubs, teams, and partners.

Founder, Business Development

Lachlan Reed

Lachlan is living the athlete’s pursuit of excellence, training and competing across multiple countries with countless coaches and sports scientists. He knows the universal truth of sport: the bond between coach and athlete is the essence of success. Frustrated by the inefficiency of paper-based workout systems, he envisioned a tool to centralize everything. At Mako App, Lachlan brings athletes and coaches a 360° view of wellness, training, and performance, helping every swimmer chase excellence. Lachlan drives business relations and partnerships, along with an athlete-first development approach.
