Our take
The way we watch content has changed massively in recent years, but so far, sports broadcasting has failed to keep up with this change. Buzzer solves this problem by offering an alternative to traditional, linear sports broadcasting.
Buzzer sends users push notifications about live games according to their team and player preferences. This bespoke approach is intended to monetize the Gen Z market, and sets the company apart from more traditional sports viewing options. It has further differentiated itself from similar apps such as the NBA's League Pass by offering a wider range of sports. What's more, Buzzer's unique micro-payment system makes it an appealing prospect compared to expensive traditional cable plans.
Buzzer's high media profile and lucrative partnerships have allowed it to gain a sturdy foothold in the profitable sports content market. They will need to expand their partnerships in order to scale and maintain their user base.
