FairPlay Sports Media, the fan and AI-powered global sports media network, has launched Teammate, the industry’s first sports AI assistant on its WhoScored.com brand.

Teammate translates natural-language commands from sports fans and bettors, powered by a Google Gemini partnership, and redirects them to relevant betting opportunities, forecasting insight, and sporting data, to help enhance the user experience of football stats enthusiasts, as well as help level the playing field against the sportsbook, using text and data visualisations as communication.

Utilising the FairPlay network’s 25+ years of sports data assets, and its recent integration of a cutting-edge deep-learning neural engine, Teammate is the most advanced, AI-powered and fan-first tool which will allow the increasingly stats-hungry sports audience to go deeper into the numbers to enhance both their pre-match and live engagement and betting decisions.

Google Gemini has led the AI assistant charge of recent years, mastering creative and productivity tools, advanced reasoning and complex tasks, and engaging content delivery, all powered by its various advanced LLMs. Using this sophisticated platform, Teammate will access the same, well-known UI, while adapting its design and responses for those related to sports data.

Teammate, live now in beta mode, will revolutionise how sports fans find information, whether they’re a die-hard fan, a fantasy strategist, or lining up a bet builder, with its front-end designed to fit seamlessly as a white label into partner apps and websites, increasing brand stickiness and offering monetisation opportunities for those hosting the sports lifestyle tool.

Stuart Simms, group CEO at FairPlay Sports Media, said: “AI has integrated rapidly into our day-to-day lives, but there’s not been a truly bespoke assistant service that suits the needs of sports bettors and data-hungry fans. Teammate, which combines our prowess in delivery of sporting insight, with Google Gemini’s ability to serve users with natural, conversational conveyance of information, offers just that.

“Whether you need betting inspiration, you’re looking to find the best value that backs up a gut betting pick or want to explore betting opportunities around a player’s recent run of form, Teammate will point you in the direction to find the best bets and the most relevant markets, alongside forecasted tips and associated statistics and data.”
