Institutional-grade probabilistic sports forecasting

The model is ours. The edge is yours.

POSEIDON models the underlying mathematics of competition. Every match, every quarter, every play is treated as a probabilistic event whose outcome distribution can be estimated, refined, and updated in real time.

The platform combines hierarchical Bayesian inference, Monte Carlo simulation, market-implied probability extraction, and a continuously-recalibrated rating system. The output is not a prediction. The output is a probability distribution — auditable, time-stamped, and back-tested against history.

POSEIDON is built to extend across major competitive sports — each sport gets its own model, training corpus, and published calibration record. Today that's live for the NBA, with college football analytics alongside. We do not claim to know who will win. We claim to know how likely each outcome is, with the math to prove it.

MODEL FRESH: Trained on games across 10 seasons (2016-17 → 2025-26), with recency weighting (-day half-life) so recent games count most. Out-of-sample validation on the walled-off 2025-26 season: hit rate, Brier across games — not a live-trading record.
Pure mathematics, applied to live outcomes.
