AI-native football intelligence

Football, understood, from the dugout to the back office.

Football Connect is the football edition of Cricket Connect. One intelligence engine, two products: a professional suite that prepares, decides and reviews a match, and a fan platform that explains what is happening on the pitch.

Inside FC Pro

One match, three moments

The professional side of Football Connect follows the shape of a match: prepare for it, decide inside it, take it apart afterwards. The screens below are design previews of what we are building, shown on NEC's season.

Before · Scouting

Prepare the plan

A full opposition report for the fixture: their shape with and without the ball, where their chances come from, set pieces at both ends and goalkeeper tendencies. Read it as a deck, a document, or in the app with a chat that knows the page.

Here: FC Barcelona scouted for NEC, ahead of a home match.

During · Dugout

Decide in the moment

Live duels, pressure and chances as the match moves, with a chat that answers against the events as they arrive. Every answer shows how many minutes and duels it rests on.

Here: NEC v Barcelona at home, 63 minutes in, level at 1–1.

After · Explorer

Go back to the play

Every shot, pass and entry into the final third, filtered the way an analyst thinks: by phase of play, by half, by score, by location on the pitch.

Here: every NEC shot from open play in the second half, across a 34-match season.

The intelligence

What will sit under every answer

Whether you are a fan or a first-team analyst, the answers come from the same core.

Pattern-based analysis

Trends across matches, seasons and leagues, with the sample size shown next to every figure.

Tactical insight

How shape, substitutions and set pieces change what happens on the pitch.

Probabilistic forecasting

Probabilities grounded in form, rest, travel and history. For understanding, never for gambling.

Match-state awareness

Score, minute, numbers on the pitch and phase of play. In football, a chance at 1–0 up in the 85th minute means something different from the same chance at 0–0 in the 10th.

Built on Cricket Connect

A proven engine, a new sport

Cricket Connect is in live use in professional cricket, in the Vitality Blast and the Caribbean Premier League. Football Connect takes the same engine and rebuilds the sport-specific parts for a game that flows, counted in possessions instead of balls.
