What PronoStats is
AI prediction platform for football, basketball, hockey and baseball. An ensemble of three ML models (Random Forest, XGBoost, Logistic Regression) generates base probabilities, then an LLM (Llama 3.3 70B via Groq) reviews them, adding context numbers miss: last-hour injuries, weather, rivalries, standings pressure. Final probabilities are calibrated with Poisson distribution and blended with bookmaker odds. All in 5 languages (Italian, English, Spanish, French, Chinese).
The founder
Vincenzo Forgione, 28, from Fisciano (Salerno, Italy). Full-stack developer. Built PronoStats alone in his spare time, launched April 11, 2026.
âThe idea was simple: take the mathematical rigor of quant trading and apply it to a domain where the general public is still dominated by gut feel. Football.â
Why cover us
Italian solo founder, 70 days from launch, already with paying customers and $400 MRR. Modern tech stack (Next.js + FastAPI + AI), zero funding, fully transparent build-in-public. The 'indie founder vs Big Tech' angle is timely ahead of the 2026 World Cup (Microsoft just partnered with the Premier League for their AI Assistant Manager).
