What Betsperts Media & Technology Group does

Betsperts Media & Technology Group is a Chicago-based digital media and technology company that operates a multi-brand portfolio serving sports bettors and daily fantasy sports players. Founded in 2018 by Reid Rooney and Austin Harper as a crowd-sourced social platform for the sports betting community, the company has expanded through acquisition into a portfolio that includes the Fantasy Life App (acquired from ESPN's Matthew Berry in 2021), 4for4 Fantasy Football, Dynasty League Football, Bleacher Nation, PokerCoach.us, Betsperts Golf (launched in partnership with Paige Spiranac in 2022), and Fantasy National Golf Club (acquired in 2025). The platform combines premium subscription content, decision-support tools (rankings, projections, lineup generators), community features with transparent pick tracking, and a sportsbook affiliate channel, reaching over 25 million unique users and 225 million page views annually across web properties and mobile apps distributed via iOS and Android app stores.

The underlying technology stack is web- and mobile-based, with each sub-brand operating as a distinct domain (Betsperts.com, 4for4.com, DynastyLeagueFootball.com, BetspertsGolf.com, BleacherNation.com, FantasyNational.com) plus the Fantasy Life and Bleacher Nation Fantasy mobile apps. Notable technical components include the official PGA Tour data partnership underwriting Betsperts Golf and Fantasy National Golf Club's Stat Engine, Lineup Generator, and Course Breakdown analytics suite, as well as 4for4's fantasy football decision-support tooling. Betsperts has completed five acquisitions since 2021 and raised approximately $8.6M across seed, Series A, and Series A2 rounds from HBSE Ventures, Verance Capital, Parlay Capital Holdings, Velo Partners, and a roster of athlete and celebrity investors including Kevin Durant and Chris Paul.

The business model combines three revenue streams: (i) recurring premium subscriptions sold across the portfolio's consumer-facing brands, (ii) sportsbook affiliate and referral fees earned as one of the top affiliates in the U.S. sports betting market, and (iii) advertising and sponsored content placements across the media properties. Distribution is primarily digital and self-serve, with top-of-funnel acquisition driven by SEO across owned domains, an influencer-led content strategy (Paige Spiranac, Matthew Berry, Pat Mayo), and more than 15 podcasts and live shows plus 25,000+ articles published annually. The company reported profitability in 2023 while continuing to fund acquisitions, with a lean 45-person team operating across six countries.
