We’re not a prediction site.
We’re an intelligence system.
Football fans make decisions every week on worse information than they deserve. The data exists, but nobody had built a system to pull it together and put it in their hands. So we built one.
Architecture trusted by
Defence-grade forecasting, pointed at football
SportsKinetic is powered by the Ianic Sports Insight Engine, developed by Ianic AI, a team building forecasting technology since 2017 for clients in defence, finance and international humanitarian work.
Ianic’s defence product, METIS, fuses social posts, news wires and recognition models to detect and verify real-world events faster than any analyst team. That same underlying architecture has been trusted by NATO, the UK Ministry of Defence, the United Nations and some of the world’s most respected financial advisors.
We pointed it at football because football is hard: low scores, high complexity, adversarial dynamics and a constant, real-time flow of information. That is the environment a defence-grade prediction architecture is built for.
What “defence-grade” means here
It means a system built for high-noise, time-critical conditions rather than ideal laboratory ones. It never freezes on last season’s data, and it never hands you a single number while hiding the reasoning behind it. It pulls together conflicting sources, weights each one by reliability and is honest about how confident it is.
Three specialised agents, running non-stop
Every hour of every day, three AI agents process information from across the football world. Everything they find flows into a single, purpose-built forecasting model.
Journalist Agent
Reads millions of articles a day across dozens of languages, cross-references every source and keeps only what it can verify.
Social Media Agent
Tracks rumours, fan sentiment and breaking stories in real time, checking each one against trusted local and national sources before it counts.
Data Science Agent
Pulls match and player statistics from the highest-quality football data sources, refreshing the picture every 15 minutes.
We never give you a single number
The Ianic Sports Insight Engine produces ranked probability distributions across eight modules for every fixture: the form, the stats, the player signals and the live news, all of it visible and traceable.
Win / Draw Probability
A clear, data-backed read on how a match is likely to swing over 90 minutes.
Featured Prediction
The one call we are most confident about, shown first.
Performance Statistics
Attack, midfield, defence and goalkeeping compared side by side.
All Predictions
A ranked scoreline distribution plus every goal-threshold call in one place.
Predicted Goalscorers
The players most likely to score, with a confidence rating on each.
Players to Watch
Key names from both teams, backed by their form over the last five games.
Fixture News Feed
AI-summarised news on the teams and players in the match, with sources.
Form & Top Players
Recent results and standout performers that reinforce every call.
Understanding → Trust → Decision
Understanding
Context first, match timing, competition standing and recent form, so you know where a fixture sits before you dive in.
Trust
Then the reasoning, performance stats, player signals and live news that show exactly why each prediction exists.
Decision
Finally the full picture, every prediction, ranked and explained, ready for you to make the call.
The gap is the edge
SportsKinetic correctly predicts the exact Premier League scoreline in one of every five matches. Predictions are published before kick-off and tracked against results, that record is verifiable. Randomly picking the right scoreline sits at roughly one in thirty. The distance between one-in-thirty and one-in-five is the model’s edge.
What we stand on
Show the reasoning
Predictions without explanation are not intelligence. Every output ships with the data that produced it, visible and traceable.
Honest confidence
We tell you how certain we are, and where the data is thin. A two-dot rating is not a failure. It means the picture is mixed, and we would rather say so than fake a number.
Constant learning
The pipeline retrains daily. The model never freezes on last season, it learns from every match, result and update.
Entertainment first
SportsKinetic is built for football fans. The goal is to make the game richer, not to replace the joy of watching it.
What SportsKinetic is not
Not a gambling platform
We do not facilitate betting of any kind.
Not a tipster service
We produce AI-powered analysis for fans who want to engage more deeply with the game.
Not a chatbot or a widget
The Ianic Sports Insight Engine is a purpose-built forecasting model, not a wrapper around a general language model.
No guaranteed outcomes
We estimate probabilities and communicate them honestly. Any system that promises certainty is not being straight with you.
The team behind the engine
Our leadership spans AI intelligence, engineering, product and commercial growth. Between them they have built advanced analytics platforms, including defence and security systems trusted by organisations such as the United Nations and NATO. That work is the foundation for what we do here: reliable, data-driven technology that helps people make better-informed decisions.
Ian James
Chief Executive Officer
Sets the vision, commercial strategy and growth plans, keeping the team focused on what fans actually get from the product.
Leon Harris
Chief Technology Officer
Leads engineering and the AI model architecture, applying defence-grade intelligence design to the demands of live football.
Hasan Khan
Director of Technology & Business Operations
Bridges technology delivery and operations, overseeing product development, quality and how the platform scales.
The intelligence runs deeper
SportsKinetic sits on top of a wider Ianic intelligence platform, the same infrastructure that powers professional football analytics, research and AI tooling.
Multi-Provider Integration
Automatic API integration across every major data provider. One query replaces six separate data pulls.
Stat Assist Pro
An AI assistant that understands the full structure of your data, so you know exactly what exists before analysis begins.
Player ID Matching
Intelligent reconciliation of player records across sources, handled automatically.
AI-Ready Infrastructure
Data optimised and automatically prepared for machine learning and advanced analytics.
Applied Research
Ongoing work in computer vision, injury prediction, chance-creation physics and squad intelligence.
For everyone who wants the why
For fans who want to understand why things happen on the pitch, not just that they happened. For fantasy managers who need player-level intelligence before making a pick. For anyone tired of pundit opinion dressed up as analysis, and ready for something built on actual data.
For entertainment purposes only. SportsKinetic is not a gambling platform and does not offer betting or financial advice. All predictions are AI-generated and provided without guarantee of accuracy.
