The two companies are launching a no-code AI platform that allows content 
creators to build and deploy authentic sports stories with extreme 
personalization and limitless scale.

"When it comes to fan engagement in sport, there's been a trend away from 
authenticity that views the fan only as a consumer," said Mustafa Abdul-Hamid, 
CEO of Boost. "But people want to feel the raw emotion of sport. Whether 
someone is watching a game, purchasing sneakers, or searching for college 
basketball lines while placing a bet, we want to provide them with the 
experience of having their favorite coach or athlete right alongside them. This 
is how we differentiate ourselves in the market on personalization."  

The AI extracts and writes sports insights and data-driven stories that are 
relevant and personalized to the end user. Marketing teams can continuously 
edit and control the voice and vernacular of the AI to ensure brand alignment 
across different channels while in production. Watch a short demo video here (

).

"Through unprecedented digital access, fans have become increasingly savvy – 
and demanding – when it comes to their sport experience," said Tim Mitchell, 
VP-GTM for the new partnership, and former NIKE executive. "This new platform 
will allow brands across the sport ecosystem to accelerate their go-to-market 
performance through the personalization of a one-to-one relationship in the 
unique voice of every fan."

Corporate marketing teams can select the sport, end user features for 
personalization, and types of narratives for NCAA March Madness, Premier League 
bets, or other insights their customers want." 

Through its alliance with Boost, Arria NLG further reinforces its position in 
the sports media and betting ecosystem as well as continues to expand its 
presence in e-commerce. Arria's well-deserved reputation as the global NLG 
leader reflects its relentless focus on instant conversion of multiple data 
streams into visuals and expertly written narrative analysis, including 
out-of-the-box solutions.

Jorge Costa, director of analytics at Boost, previously led the R&D group for 
the Detroit Pistons and also worked for the NBA's data team. As he explains it, 
"We put a priority on explaining complex data. For coaches, we connect video to 
insights, and for fans we use language to help them see the game they love in 
new ways. What we do best is bridge the gap between PhD statisticians, seasoned 
scouts, and avid fans."

"Sport is the universal language around the world today, and continues to 
challenge, inspire and unify us unlike anything else," said Sharon Daniels, CEO 
of Arria. "Bringing human language to digital sport through this new platform 
for content creators will make this experience even more dynamic."
