What is HooperIQ?

HooperIQ is a basketball IQ score. A 3-minute test on real film gives you a number from 60 to 140, an archetype, and a rank. Your score goes up as you get smarter. It’s that simple.

People often describe HooperIQ as “the Duolingo of basketball.” Streaks, XP, levels, leaderboards. The difference is what’s being measured. Shooting has percentages. Athleticism has the combine. Comprehension had nothing. Until now.

Founded in 2025 by Marek Klassen, an 11-year professional player (Basketball Champions League, Eurocup, NBA G League). HooperIQ was an NBA Launchpad Finalist in 2025.
