SportStream was spun out of Evri and applies Evri's realtime topic-discovery engine to sports content, launching a dedicated iPad app. The free platform aggregates realtime news and in-game scores, integrates users' social feeds and tweet highlights, and surfaces relevant social content tied to specific games and events. It provides a second-screen experience that places friends, followers, curated social streams, real-time stats, and chat inside the touchscreen interface. Users can authenticate via Facebook to find friends and receive customized feeds based on teams, players, and topics like injuries and trades. The company aims to become a go-to destination for interactive sports consumption as mobile and second-screen viewing grows. Financially, the newly minted startup closed a $3.5M Series A from Paul Allen's Vulcan Capital shortly after spinning out.
