TAYP LLC

Tayp was built for athletes who are tired of being overlooked. Back in the day, athletes had to create highlight tapes and send them to coaches just to get a chance. Tayp brings that idea into today’s world. Your tape now lives online, where it can actually be seen. We are based right here in Alpharetta and focused on helping athletes in Georgia get exposure. Whether it’s football, basketball, or flag football, athletes can post their highlights, build a profile, and be discovered by coaches, teammates, and fans. The platform is built around real opportunities. Events, camps, and local programs are integrated so athletes don’t miss chances to compete and get noticed. This isn’t just another social media app. It’s a tool for athletes who are serious about their future. If you play, you should be on Tayp. https://www.mytayp.com
