I run Are You Watching This?!, a B-to-B sports excitement analytics company that identifies exciting games in real time by analyzing live game data. Sports, media, and cable companies license that data for use on sites, in apps, and on cable boxes. A clone popped up in 2010 (Thuuz), run by a VC, with a dozen or so employees and 5M in funding. We're profitable, growing, and customers continue to choose us over the clone. It'll be 10 years this Fall, and we've been profitable since 2013.

Seems so unfair and unprofitable to me that a VC will spin up a competitor in this niche. Good luck!

  Watching a VC being interviewed pretending he invented something that will be the second sentence in the first paragraph of your obituary, is stronger than 5 cups of coffee. It's a blessing.

I always thought RUWT was strictly a consumer product; the b2b model is genius. Well done!

  Thanks! I get to watch sports all day--I try not to ever complain.
