ROYAL OAK – Peter Schwartz from Supported Intelligence talks about how successful the SmartBracket software product did with the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. Through the final game, SmartBracket had the North Carolina-Gonzaga match up in two of the three ways SmartBracket is measured. SmartBracket uses Artificial Intelligence to pick brackets. In Yahoo, SmartBracket was in the 99th percentile. In ESPN, SmartBracket was in the 98.5 percentile. Unfortunately, SmartBracket picked Gonzaga to win, but for anyone who watched that game they know Gonzaga was robbed by the refs. Right?
The app was initially developed in East Lansing by Supported Intelligence, which recently has expanded both to Detroit’s TechTown business accelerator and to an affiliated office in New York City. The company designed SmartBracket to demonstrate the capabilities of its distinctive Rapid Recursive technology, which makes sequential decisions—where one choice affects the dynamics of next—for business managers.
