football-data.org provides football data and statistics (live scores, fixtures, tables, squads, lineups/subs, etc.) in a machine-readable way. Within the last years my football-data project changed from a solely personal hobby project into a small side business. I'm happy to be in close contact with lots of users seeing extremely different use cases and ways to work with football data. I try to offer a concise and flexible API that is able to satisfy all use cases in a nice way, without affecting each other in a negative way, which is quite challenging. Having different upstreams, doing manual data checking each day and with automatic QA services in place I try to offer only the best quality, because I think data quality matters.

The sports card industry is booming in the last few years and the hobby has turned into a valuable alternative asset class as well. A lot of investors and celebrities have entered the market and are helping it to grow rapidly. As a collector, you have to use different solutions & platforms to ease your needs. For buying & selling f.e.you have to go on eBay or one niche marketplace. For grading, you have to send your stuff physically to a US company like PSA or Beckett with huge backlogs, expensive prices, and subjective grades. For connecting with other passionate collectors you have to use different social networks. We want to provide all services out of one hand in an innovative ecosystem (“one-stop-shop”). The collector should be able to connect with others and sell, buy, trade, evaluate & grade his cards in real-time in our digital ecosystem. Besides our mobile app solution we gonna provide B2B services for companies as well.
