Identify AI use cases with the quickest return

This blog is an excerpt from Future Anthem’s recently launched playbook: How sportsbooks can lead with AI. Grab a copy here.

We recommend viewing AI as an enabler for your existing teams to deliver in a more personalised way, at scale.

You’re not changing what you are trying to achieve – rather AI should be seen as a co-pilot. It should be incorporated seamlessly into existing workflows and systems rather than introducing yet another login for operational teams to use. 

Your content management team has always tried to create the best possible experience with the tools they have been given – they can now leverage AI to do things at scale that were never possible before.  

AI can assist in making informed decisions and scaling operations using the vast amounts of player data you already have. For example, AI could identify real-time audiences to enable personalised marketing campaigns.

This helps marketing teams build relevant content for these new audiences with AI scaling an already successful process. This approach helps identify new opportunities for improving the player experience through personalisation and deliver benefits quickly. 

Operators should focus on high-value use cases that require minimal internal investment and roadmap dependencies and use AI to double down in these areas. Beginning with manageable steps allows for tangible results and a justifiable return on investment. 

Amplifying successes allows you to justify investment easily. Rather than building out a 3-year product vision with a myriad of dependencies which is hard to validate until the end, operators can utilise third-party products to prove the value of being AI-driven right now.
