Concept Name

Sportrivia

 

High Concept Statement

Sabermetrics used broadly throughout sports

 

Status Quo

People are always trying to predict outcomes of games, or in-game events. By using technical data and making the challenge within an organized platform, we are attempting to attract a broad base of sports enthusiasts to compete on various aspects of individual professional games.

 

Competition

Fanduel and DraftKings are daily fantasy sports players, however our product is based more on individual achievements and overall outcomes of games.  It competes with Las Vegas gambling, however there is no betting or wagering on our website. WinView games is the nearest competitor in the space.

 

Solution

We are looking to make watching a variety of sports and individual games more interesting by having our users have a vested interest in each game by offering cash prizes to winners.

 

Revenue Model

There will be tiered levels of data analysis that we would provide for varying fees.  The more data and analysis that users purchase, the more events they can participate in per day/week/month.
