Problem
New and casual sports fans often feel lost while watching live games because broadcasts assume prior knowledge of rules, tactics, and player context. Friends with more experience can explain things, but that help isn't always available, leaving fans frustrated and disengaged from the sport.
Solution
FanCoach is a mobile app that serves as a personal sports coach, explaining every meaningful play the moment it happens through real-time commentary cards written in language anyone can follow. Users can tap any play and ask FanCoach AI questions—like what just happened, why it matters, or what to watch for next—and receive up-to-the-second, plain-English answers grounded in the live game data. The app also lets fans choose from pre-built commentator personalities (including The Coach, The Unhinged, The Analyst, and The Insider) or create their own custom announcer in any language. To add a social layer, users make predictions with virtual FanCoins—never real money—and compete against friends on live leaderboards.
Target Audience
Primary users are new and casual sports fans who want to understand live games in real time, as well as friend groups who enjoy making predictions and competing on leaderboards without financial risk.
