The Problem

Sports Media Teams Cover More Matchups Than Their Editors Can Analyze

Building original pre-game analysis takes hours per matchup. Prediction models require data engineers. The result is generic coverage that fans stop reading.

Time Cost Per Matchup

Editorial teams spend 1-3 hours per game building the prediction angle from scratch, every week.

Data Engineering Bottleneck

Surfacing accurate stats requires a data team that most media operations don't have in-house.

Generic Coverage Loses Fans

When pre-game content is indistinguishable from competitors, engagement drops and subscribers churn.
