Pundits - Tracking expert football picks
What's up IH'ers! It's been a few years. I bootstrapped two SaaS's to 1M ARR+ and am running growth at Churnkey.co (co-founder). I'm building side projects to improve my AI skills.
I just launched: Pundits. https://pundits.pro
Football is back tomorrow and I always wanted to track ESPN personalities' picks and see how they would actually perform if they were betting with their pick. Pundit tracks ever pick that expert/analyst makes, logs it, and gives them a ranking over time against others.
It's mainly for sports fans that want to see what experts are picking which games. I've got some monetization ideas in mind but need to get it sourced with picks starting tomorrow.
Fun to be back building fresh ideas!
The timing makes this an interesting validation window.
Curious what you’re treating as the first real signal: people coming back to check rankings, or people wanting access to deeper pick/performance data.
That's a Great question that forces me to clarify a bit. I'm trying to find the real signal on the fly. I think the first step is just validating that I can have these AI agents finding, validating, and grading "the picks".
I think I need to test both of things and see what people value.
That makes sense. I’ll be interested to see what the early user behavior reveals once you’ve tested both sides.
Not getting much engagement on Twitter or SEO yet. Always a sobering reminder how hard getting early traction is. Gonna be a grind as usual!
That’s fair. Early traction is usually where the real test starts. I’ll be interested to see what ends up producing the first consistent signal.
