Yahoo Sports
Leveraging AI to help users catch up on games
Yahoo Sports serves millions of fans around the world who rely on the platform every day for live stats, scores, highlights, and breaking news.
For many of these fans, catching up on missed action is a top priority—but doing so through a traditional box score can be slow and tedious. To solve this, we created Game Breakdowns, our first in‑app AI assistant that transforms raw game data into concise narratives, key moments, and interactive Q&A. Fans get the full story in seconds, without digging through long articles or dense stat lines.

Upon launch, Game Breakdowns quickly became a cornerstone of the Yahoo Fantasy+ subscription. Strong engagement metrics, especially in page views per session and scroll rate, validated the value of the experience. Just as importantly, the project established foundational patterns and technical infrastructure needed for future AI expansion.
