WHY PLAYS IS IMPORTANT TO THE SPORTS INDUSTRY
- Before Plays, traditional media outlets owned live game coverage. Plays democratizes live game coverage for anyone—including the fan in the stands.
- Before Plays, live coverage of a game required at least a laptop computer and workstation. Plays lets you do it on your mobile phone--from anywhere.
- Before Plays, it took 10 seconds to type out a play on the computer and 30 seconds on your phone. Plays has engineered it down to less than 3.
- Before Plays, you typed out a play. Plays replaces typing with touch, taps, and swipes.
- Before Plays, there were 5 ways to tell the story of what happened in a single play. Plays unifies it into a common language, so anyone can cover a game and anyone will understand.
- Before Plays, the game community was in the stands, watching on TV, or listening on the radio. Plays extends it to social networking and Twitter.
- Before Plays, live sports coverage wasn't social. Plays makes it social.
Together, let's create a faster, more social way to cover your sports.
