The rollout begins with the Clausura final on December 12, with full deployment across Liga Profesional de Fútbol planned before Torneo Clausura 2027 starts in July. The GeniusIQ platform will process camera-based player tracking to support video assistant referees and generate three-dimensional explanations of offside decisions.

Genius Sports (NYSE: GENI) has partnered with X to connect NFL Gametime on X with the NFL’s official real-time data. The integration supplies scores, statistics and insights to a dedicated feed available during the 2026 NFL season, alongside X’s For You and Following tabs.
NFL Gametime combines live scores with clips, news and creator commentary. Genius Sports is the exclusive distributor of the NFL’s official real-time play-by-play statistics and Next Gen Stats data. Its partnership with the NFL began in 2021 and has expanded across media, broadcast and advertising.
Genius Sports (GENI) reaffirmed its 2026 guidance after Brazil introduced a provisional measure prohibiting fixed-odds betting and online gaming.
The measure was introduced on September 25, 2026. Genius Sports maintained its full-year outlook of $1.005B to $1.025B in Group Revenue and $285M to $295M in Group Adjusted EBITDA. Its commercial agreements leave minimal betting revenue attributable to Brazil, and the company anticipates an immaterial financial impact on Legend.
Genius Sports’ Brazilian sports partnerships remain unaffected. Its work with the Brazilian Football Confederation through GeniusIQ includes semi-automated offside technology and other products delivered independently of betting.
Genius Sports (GENI) will hold its 2026 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on December 8, 2026.

Genius Sports (GENI) has launched Prediction.com, a consumer platform that aggregates prediction markets, event contracts and pricing from multiple prediction platforms into a single destination.
Built by Genius Sports’ consumer arm Legend, the site combines official live sports data with real-time prediction market prices, enabling users to compare equivalent and multi-leg contracts across venues and track how probabilities evolve during live events. Prediction.com is positioned as a flagship brand in the growing prediction market category and is expected to expand coverage, functionality and partner integrations over time.
Genius Sports (GENI) released a note from CEO Mark Locke arguing that US sports prediction markets will evolve but underlying wagering demand will persist.
Genius supplies official data, settlement and integrity services to platforms including DraftKings, FanDuel, Kalshi and Polymarket, and sells data and tools to market makers, as well as customer-acquisition services via Legend. Locke states that, under current commercial arrangements, economics from a comparable dollar of prediction‑market activity match or exceed those from sportsbooks. He expects CFTC rulemaking and state actions, such as new taxes in North Carolina and Illinois, to reshape products and access, but believes liquidity and wagering activity will remain, positioning Genius to earn from exchanges, market makers and sportsbooks regardless of which models ultimately prevail.
Genius Sports (GENI) announced a three-way partnership with Equativ and StackAdapt on September 10, 2026 to enable programmatic ads that react to live sports moments in real time.

The offering targets “second screen” usage, citing research that 84% of fans use a companion device and that relevant live scores make fans 91% more likely to pay attention to ads.
