Problem
Traditional sports viewing lacks interactive engagement, often leaving fans passively watching games without a way to directly participate or compete with friends in real-time.

Participants earn points for correct predictions, fostering a more interactive and engaging sports viewing experience. Play Caller utilizes proprietary data solutions to generate accurate in-game outcomes and deliver data feeds to support next-generation gaming experiences.
