BenchCast

BenchCast is a mobile + web second-screen companion that turns live game data into fast, watch-along insights without pretending to be a broadcast. Users pick a team, sync to the game clock manually (or via audio fingerprinting where available), and get a clean stream of: win probability swings, lineup impact, player usage, and “what just changed?” explanations after key plays. It also includes quick polls and prediction prompts that are actually tied to moments (e.g., after a timeout, before a penalty kick) so engagement feels relevant, not spammy. The product is realistic: it doesn’t require exclusive league deals to be useful, but it becomes dramatically better when integrated with official feeds. Monetization is a freemium subscription (advanced breakdowns, fewer delays, no ads) plus B2B “watch party” dashboards for bars and fan clubs.
