What we offer

Fan data that tells you
what to do next,
not just what happened.

Most social listening tools tell you that fans were angry last weekend. FanTrendTracker tells you which topics triggered that anger, which channels amplified it, how it shifted hour by hour — and what it means for your next decision.

Standard tools give you
Positive vs. negative sentiment. A percentage. Maybe a word cloud. No context, no causality, no action.
FanTrendTracker gives you
11 emotion dimensions. Topic clusters. Temporal spikes. Channel breakdowns. Intelligence you can act on immediately.
Standard tools are
Generic platforms built for any industry. Expensive subscriptions. No sports domain knowledge. Black-box models.
FanTrendTracker is
Built specifically for sports. Academic methodology. Custom to your organisation. Local inference — your data never leaves.

Use cases

Built for sports. Useful far beyond it.

FanTrendTracker is designed for sports organisations - but the framework applies anywhere large-scale fan or audience data exists.

Sports & motorsport
Track how fans respond to race results, driver transfers, regulation changes, and controversies across an entire season — not just race weekends.
Know which transfers landed well, which controversies need managing, and when to engage fans proactively — backed by data, not instinct.
F1 · F2 · F3FootballMotoGPCycling
Media & broadcasters
A permanent source of data-driven story angles — what fans are feeling, what topics are trending, what controversies are building — delivered every race weekend.
Know which storylines carry the strongest fan emotion before writing. Turn data into editorial advantage and audience relevance.

High-value entry point
Brands & sponsors
Sponsors spend on activations but have almost no objective measure of fan perception impact. We change that — pre/post campaign emotion data with topic-level attribution.
Know whether your activation moved the needle before the campaign closes. Bring emotion-level evidence to stakeholder reports and renewal decisions.
