Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I built PuntersForecast because I wanted to create something different in the sports prediction space. Instead of competing against other users, you're going head-to-head with an AI called "The Machine." What makes it unique: When The Machine gets predictions wrong, it doesn't just move on—it performs a post-mortem analysis using Groq AI, examines what went wrong (missed injuries, underestimated momentum, ignored betting line movements), and uses that learning to improve future predictions. It pulls real-time data from ESPN, betting odds, team stats, and news to form its picks. vs. Traditional prediction apps: Most apps are just social—pick winners, compare with friends We're about competing with AI that actually gets smarter over time Everything's public and transparent (you can see when The Machine fails) Retro terminal aesthetic instead of generic sports app design What I'm most proud of: The learning system. The Machine maintains a "memory" of past failures and actively references them when making new predictions. It's genuinely fascinating to watch it adjust its reasoning after a bad pick. Also, the achievement system and ranking progression makes it genuinely addictive—I keep coming back to maintain my streak. Built with React/TypeScript/Node.js/PostgreSQL, integrating ESPN API for live data. Would love to hear what you think!
