Betsperts Looks to Take on Twitter With Sports Handicapping Social Media Platform

Three Chicago entrepreneurs are looking to take on Twitter with a new social media platform that allows individuals to document their picks and follow others in the community for tips.

“It’s a community of bettors and granular-level experts where you can get the support in areas you might not have,” Co-founder Reid Rooney.

Users can be filtered by expertise, from ROI or streak, and all picks are public. The app also has a messaging function.

“We are in the process of [testing out] player props and a few other categories for sports and we’re going to continue to expand significantly but we need to do it piece by piece at this point,” Rooney added.

The company is looking to partner with other betting firms including a potential to intergtate the platform into an operator's product.

Betsperts drew in 12,000 new users during this past March Madness and hopes to attract another 50,000 new global users for this coming football season.
