Problem
Sports fans often lack a centralized, credible platform where their opinions on players, managers, and clubs are recognized and can influence broader sports coverage. Existing channels are fragmented, making it difficult for knowledgeable supporters to share insights or have their predictions considered by media outlets.
Solution
Fanalysis provides a mobile app that turns passionate supporters into “Fanalysts,” allowing them to rate players and managers, predict match outcomes, and engage in real‑time debates. Partnerships with Sky Sports and The Athletic give the content generated by users visibility within mainstream sports media, effectively amplifying fan voices. The app verifies fan identities to ensure opinions are trustworthy, and it gamifies participation by ranking users based on the quality and impact of their contributions. By consolidating ratings, predictions, and discussions in one place, Fanalysis creates a collective fan intelligence that can inform coverage and enhance fan engagement during events like the World Cup.
Target Audience
Primary users are dedicated football fans who follow specific clubs or national teams and want to share and benchmark their insights, as well as media partners seeking authentic fan perspectives for coverage.
