About Sports Info Solutions

Pioneers in the Sports Data Industry

SIS was founded on the belief that decision making in sports could be improved and that we could help teams win more games through the use of better data, analytics, and technology.

That belief has been validated repeatedly since our founding in 2002 as we continue to revolutionize the way the game is played on and off the field.

Company overview

Our mission is to enrich and optimize the decision-making process for sports teams, sportsbooks, and sports fans.

We are proud to have been leaders in collecting, analyzing and distributing the deepest data sets and insights to professional sports teams across the MLB, NBA and NFL.

In the beginning, John Dewan set out to change the way baseball was played, by taking on Project Scoresheet alongside Bill James, bringing about a new wave of baseball statistics that have become common in today’s vernacular. That deep passion and understanding of sports and data has remained central to the core at SIS, as our organization has evolved to include former professional and collegiate athletes, coaches, scouts alongside our best-in-class technology and research analysts. Simply put, we go deeper.

We are now doubling down on what’s made us successful by further advancing our data, technology, insights and partners as we drive forward the next innovations in Sports Data and Analytics.
