I am a huge soccer fan and I bet on matches daily (especially in-game bets like “+1.5 goals” and “+2.5 goals”).

I recently created a tool where I could define alerts (example: Current Score is 1-0 + Odds for the current team is > 1.5 + Other team is aggressively attacking) to receive notifications on what bets I should place, during live matches.

I am also slowly adding a touch of AI to suggest new types of alerts while testing them through backtesting.

I ended up the last few weeks of testing with a success rate of 82% which is pretty good and want to start selling access to a limited (less than 1000) number of users.

I would expect at least 1 comment to say “If you are making money with it, why do you want to sell it to other people?” which doesn’t make sense to me…
Having other users placing the same bets than me does NOT impact my own ability to make money through my system. But it would also bring me extra $$ that i can spend on my own bets AND see what kind of alerts other users are doing. Or am i missing something?

If you are already used to place bets on soccer games, I would be curious to get your feedbacks.

Also, I am a solid developer but terrible marketer and I am looking to get ideas on how to find potential users for it (Affiliate marketing, maybe?).

    How do you determine aggressive attacking? What are the parameters to determine aggressive attacking, I would love to understand more.

    I didn’t look much into betfair yet. I think I want to get a good balance of AI and user-generated logic. I would be curious to see the success rate of existing apps. I think 82% is fairly good but would want to push 90+%

    what does it mean to have a “success rate of 82%”?
    Does it convert to same proportions of amount winnings as well?

      It means that out of the 90ish bets suggested, 82% of them were successful. I think it was around 5,000$ of profits. I would need to re-check the exact numbers

    hey, combining soccer, data, and AI sounds like a dream. love the concept. regarding the “why sell if it works” question, diversifying income sources is smart. sharing doesn’t dilute your winnings. affiliate marketing might be a good shout. perhaps partnering with sports blogs or forums could work? also, consider getting feedback on user-generated alerts. might help refine the AI. curious to see how this develops!

    You need a catchy name. Work thru betting channels. Make them pay unless they get new betters. This will also help you get to see what people are looking for and how they bet in real life and connect your predictions with actual results and bets people make including dollar amount. DM me if you wanna brainstorm your GTM.

    Sounds very interesting and promising. Been thinking of something like it for quite some time, but never got around to test it, so I would be very keen to try your product
