CLIENT

About the client

A data-service operator supporting the investment experience of public-racing fans.

The public-racing data-service operator runs a service that aggregates keirin and horse-racing odds, predictions and results and delivers them to members. In recent years, beyond just viewing predictions, demand had grown for users to record and analyze their own betting-ticket investments.

Previously, odds, predictions and race cards were scattered across multiple sites, and the P/L of users was recorded nowhere. So we set out to build, from scratch, a foundation that supports everything end to end, from data collection through investment logging to notifications.

ARCHITECTURE

Architecture built together

We built automated data collection, a distribution PWA, investment logging / P/L management, and Telegram notifications plus an operations CMS in-house from scratch. We designed everything end to end, from collection through investment logging to notifications.
