About

Are You Watching This?! guarantees that no sports fan ever misses an Instant Classic.

Using patent-pending algorithms that process in-game statistics for games around the globe and television listings across the U.S. and Canada in real-time, you (and your DVR) will know when it's time to hustle to the couch.

Company Stats

  • Company founded in 2006, based in Austin, TX
  • Rating engine went online in 2007, understands more than a dozen sports, and has analyzed 150K+ games
  • No outside funding, 100% bootstrapped
  • RUWT?! is a one-man shop run by Mark Phillip, a Brooklyn-born MIT Computer Science Major, and lifelong Yankees fan.

The Problem

  • 1 in 4 days has 100+ sporting events
  • On November 14th, 2009, there were 510
  • 8,100+ different TV stations broadcast sports
  • 2,500,000+ combinations of ZIP/Postal Code and cable/satellite provider across U.S. and Canada
  • As passable solutions for cutting the cord continue to proliferate, viewers' frustration in finding linear content worth watching among hundreds of channels continues to grow.

The Solution

  • Rating engine analyzes real-time feed of sports data to pick out Instant Classics in the making
  • 25,000 RUWT?! Super Fans act like Nielsen households, identifying great sporting events alongside automated algorithms
  • TV lineups for U.S. and Canada are examined daily to determine games each user can watch
  • B2B-focused company provides Data Services to larger companies to enhance their existing customer-facing experiences
  • Engine incorporates multiple internal and external signals, as well as historical data. Put simply: the more games the engine rates, the better it gets at rating games.
