Our mission is to enrich and optimize the decision-making process for sports teams, sportsbooks, and sports fans. Our vision is to create an unparalleled platform of sporting data and insights through best-in-class technology, products, and partnerships. Our versatility, subject matter expertise, and desire to enhance our partners performance is at the core of what we do. As we enter the next chapter of our trajectory, we are keen to put our data and newfound products to use to improve the sports fan experience, while being a critical part of the supply chain. Our existing database offers unparalleled detail and is updated daily, not just for the 3 professional sports listed, but at the collegiate, international and minor league levels as well. We are also moving further into the real-time data space (for the above noted sports) and into new sports/leagues. A key differentiator for us relative to competition is our flexibility and ability to customize feeds, data points, etc based on specific needs of partners.
