Infront, the media, betting and technology partner of France’s Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP), has partnered with Genius Sports to implement cutting-edge tracking technology across the Ligue 1 McDonalds and Ligue 2 BKT.

Infront’s commitment to deliver best-in-class technology and data services to the LFP is part of a broad partnership encompassing betting rights, selected media rights and digital and technology services, the latter powered by Infront Lab, the innovation arm of Infront.

The use of computer vision for data capture sits closely at the heart of Infront’s new betting division, Infront Bettor. As part of a broad partnership, Infront will introduce Genius Sports’ world class data and tracking technologies to the LFP.

The partnership with Genius Sports comes on the heels of a highly successful phase for Infront, marked by strong performance for both betting and media sales across the LFP. This latest collaboration underscores Infront’s momentum in delivering cutting-edge solutions to its partners, further reinforcing its role as a key player in the evolution of the sports betting and media landscape.

Powered by GeniusIQ, Genius Sports’ next-generation AI and data platform, the LFP will benefit from a single, connected system that will drive innovations from player and game analysis to how fans experience France’s premier football league. Machine learning and AI will provide data-driven performance tools to LFP coaches and analysts enhancing training, in-game decision making and post-match analysis. Augmented, data-driven broadcasts will also include key tracking insights displayed to viewers in real-time.

Full coordination of the technology with the LFP will be handled by Infront as it looks to deliver an improved product to the league’s media partners as well as bookmakers.

Martin Aurenche, LFP Media Chief Media Officer, said: “Infront has demonstrated their commitment to ensuring the LFP remains at the forefront of football innovation through this partnership. We are excited to see what GeniusIQ will bring to our league in terms of cutting-edge data insights, enhancing not only the fan experience but also providing clubs and coaches with invaluable tools to elevate their performance.”

Chris Catling, Head of Infront Bettor, said: “The appointment of Genius Sports is a testament to Infront and LFP’s shared commitment to innovation. It will enhance both the fan experience whilst also empowering clubs and coaches with tools that drive performance and strategy. The LFP continues to be a dynamic partner and together we are charting a course for the future of football that is both exciting and transformative. Our intention will always be to provide the best technology available to our partners, either in-house or via trusted third parties.”

Jack Davison, Chief Commercial Officer of Genius Sports, said: “Together, Infront, LFP and Genius Sports share a vision for implementing best-in-class technology to enhance French football both on and off the pitch. We’re excited to begin this new partnership to put the LFP at the forefront of data innovation through GeniusIQ. From enabling coaches to find their winning edge to powering augmented, data-driven broadcasts, GeniusIQ provides the foundations for unparalleled fan engagement.”

FairPlay Sports Media, the fan and AI-powered global sports media network, has launched Teammate, the industry’s first sports AI assistant on its WhoScored.com brand.

Teammate translates natural-language commands from sports fans and bettors, powered by a Google Gemini partnership, and redirects them to relevant betting opportunities, forecasting insight, and sporting data, to help enhance the user experience of football stats enthusiasts, as well as help level the playing field against the sportsbook, using text and data visualisations as communication.

Utilising the FairPlay network’s 25+ years of sports data assets, and its recent integration of a cutting-edge deep-learning neural engine, Teammate is the most advanced, AI-powered and fan-first tool which will allow the increasingly stats-hungry sports audience to go deeper into the numbers to enhance both their pre-match and live engagement and betting decisions.

Google Gemini has led the AI assistant charge of recent years, mastering creative and productivity tools, advanced reasoning and complex tasks, and engaging content delivery, all powered by its various advanced LLMs. Using this sophisticated platform, Teammate will access the same, well-known UI, while adapting its design and responses for those related to sports data.

Teammate, live now in beta mode, will revolutionise how sports fans find information, whether they’re a die-hard fan, a fantasy strategist, or lining up a bet builder, with its front-end designed to fit seamlessly as a white label into partner apps and websites, increasing brand stickiness and offering monetisation opportunities for those hosting the sports lifestyle tool.

Stuart Simms, group CEO at FairPlay Sports Media, said: “AI has integrated rapidly into our day-to-day lives, but there’s not been a truly bespoke assistant service that suits the needs of sports bettors and data-hungry fans. Teammate, which combines our prowess in delivery of sporting insight, with Google Gemini’s ability to serve users with natural, conversational conveyance of information, offers just that.

“Whether you need betting inspiration, you’re looking to find the best value that backs up a gut betting pick or want to explore betting opportunities around a player’s recent run of form, Teammate will point you in the direction to find the best bets and the most relevant markets, alongside forecasted tips and associated statistics and data.”

BetSymphony just raised the bar for iGaming. The no-revenue-share iGaming platform has introduced a next-generation Conversational AI interface, powered by its advanced AI agent BetHarmony, now delivering a player experience so intuitive, it feels like the sportsbook is talking directly to you. 

Instead of dumping players into an endless library of games, long menus and static categories, players are welcomed with a personalized home screen showing relevant bets, curated game suggestions, timely reminders, and promotions aligned to their interests. Everything can be navigated by voice and in multiple languages, making discovery feel effortless. 

The launch also introduced BetHarmony Copilot — an intelligent assistant that works alongside the traditional interface, offering timely, context-aware guidance, tips, and suggestions for frictionless interactions. 

Valentina Synenka, CEO of Symphony Interactive, said:
“BetHarmony has always been a standout in conversational AI, but this release takes it to a whole new level. The conversational interface within BetSymphony delivers experiences that traditional sportsbook UIs simply can’t match. We’re not removing the classic interface – this is about giving players an additional, more natural way to engage. It’s intuitive, it’s personal, and it’s built for the future of iGaming.” 

Conversational UI is one of the fastest-growing trends in digital experiences, and BetSymphony is the first to bring it to iGaming. Here’s why that matters: 

  • It’s a breakthrough. It’s an innovation the industry has not seen in the last 30 years. It opens new opportunities to boost player engagement and unlock revenue potential. 
  • It’s more immersive. Players move from clicking through static menus to having a dynamic, two-way interaction that feels human. 
  • It’s smarter. AI-driven personalization serves up only what’s relevant – games, promotions, or bets – based on actual player behavior. 
  • It’s more capable. By unlocking features that static interfaces can’t support, it creates entirely new ways for players to discover, interact, and engage.  
  • It’s safe. Integrates with responsible gaming tools that detect risky behavior and respond instantly. 

BetHarmony is the conversation and interface . It is intelligent combining text, chat, and voice with: 

  • Predictive personalization 
  • Multi-agent orchestration 
  • Multilingual fluency 
  • Real-time operator integration 

This integration enables players to navigate, bet, and explore entirely through conversation – with no dependency on traditional navigation structures. 

With BetSymphony and BetHarmony fully integrated, this launch signals a decisive step toward a more engaging, accessible, and player-focused future in iGaming.
