Inside the app · AI-powered

The Buzz tab. What everyone else thinks.

Stats tell you what happened. Buzz tells you what people expect — the last 72 hours of fan and pundit talk, boiled down to who the crowd backs, the picks they're discussing and how many goals they're braced for. Sentiment, not stats. Free — no money in, no money out.

AI-powered tab

Four taps. Then you know the room.

The Buzz tab sits between News and Analysis in the match sheet — read it after the facts and before the AI's own verdict, so you know where the crowd is before you decide whether to join it.

01

Open Football

Pick a date, or jump to one of the 40+ competitions you follow. Every upcoming fixture is listed.

02

Tap the match

The match sheet opens on Picks. Seven tabs run along the top — Picks, Data, Graphs, Lineup, News, Buzz, Analysis.

03

Swipe to Buzz

Prepared ahead of kickoff, so it opens already written. Check the sources pill first — it tells you how much weight the rest deserves.

04

Make the call

With the crowd, or against it. Swipe back to Picks and lock it in — your prediction is timestamped and goes on your public record.

What's inside

Three reads on the crowd, and a warning label.

Who they back, what they're picking, how many goals they expect — and, on every one of them, a pill that says how much discussion the read is actually built on.

01 Crowd Confidence

Who the room is backing.

Three bars — home win, draw, away win — showing what share of the last 72 hours of discussion backs each outcome. They sum to roughly 100, so a lopsided bar is a lopsided crowd, not a rounding artefact.

This is sentiment, not probability. Crowds are reliably over-confident in big clubs and reliably dismissive of draws, and the bars show you that bias rather than correcting it. A 68% home bar doesn't mean a 68% chance — it means two in three people talking about the match expect the home side to win, which is a different and often more useful thing to know.

LopsidedOne bar well past 60. The crowd has made its mind up — which is exactly when it's worth checking the Data tab.
SplitTwo bars within ten points. Genuine uncertainty, or two fanbases shouting past each other.
Draw > 25Unusual. When the crowd is openly expecting a draw, something in the news usually explains it.

03 Goals Consensus

How many goals the crowd is braced for.

Four questions the crowd always argues about, each answered on the same seven-step scale: will it clear 1.5 goals, will it clear 2.5, will both teams score, will someone keep a clean sheet. The dot shows where opinion sits, from Strong Yes through Split to Strong No.

Reading the four together tells you the shape of the match people expect. Strong Yes on over 1.5, Likely on over 2.5 and Split on both teams to score is a crowd expecting one side to do the scoring — which is a very different match from a 2–2.

STRONG YESNear-unanimous. Almost nobody arguing the other way.
LIKELYClear majority, some pushback.
LEANING YESMore for than against, but not by much.
SPLITNo consensus. Often two fanbases with opposite views.
LEANING NOMirror of Leaning Yes.
UNLIKELYClear majority against.

04 How much to trust it

The pill on the header.

Every Buzz read carries a count of the distinct platforms where the AI actually found discussion of the match. Seven sources in green is a read built on plenty of talk. Two in amber is thin. And when very little turns up, the pill says Low data in red and the whole tab should be read as "nobody is really talking about this one".

That last case is common and deliberate. A Tuesday-night fixture in a mid-table league simply doesn't generate 72 hours of debate, and the tab won't pretend otherwise — the crowd numbers still render, but the pill tells you they're built on a handful of voices.

HighMany platforms found. The bars and consensus reflect a real crowd.
MediumSome discussion. Use with caution; check the Data tab before leaning on it.
Low dataVery few sources. A grain of salt, or two.
Not advice. Every AI tab in BetFollow carries the same disclaimer: this content does not constitute financial or gambling advice. BetFollow is a prediction game — no real money is involved, in either direction.

Behind the tab

The mood, not the model.

Buzz is the one tab where the AI is told not to think for itself. Its job is to report what people are saying, and to be honest about how many of them there were.

72 HOURS

Recent by design

Only discussion from the three days before the tab was generated counts, with the last 24 hours weighted highest. Sentiment from last month is not sentiment.

AGGREGATED

Crowd, not quotes

Social posts, forum threads and fan-community discussion are summarised into shares and consensus levels. No individual post is quoted or linked.

COUNTED

Says how much it found

The sources pill is part of the output, not decoration. A read built on two platforms is labelled as such, and a fixture with no talk gets Low data rather than a confident-looking guess.

SEPARATE

Kept out when thin

A Buzz read with almost nothing behind it — no news found and fewer than two platforms talking — is left out of the Analysis tab's own reasoning entirely, so a guess about the crowd can't dress up as evidence.

Questions, answered.

What is the Buzz tab in BetFollow?

A read on the crowd, not on the match. It summarises the last 72 hours of fan and pundit discussion about a fixture into three blocks: Crowd Confidence (what share of the talk backs the home win, the draw and the away win), Popular Predictions (the specific picks people are discussing and why) and Goals Consensus (where opinion sits on over 1.5, over 2.5, both teams to score and a clean sheet, on a seven-step scale). A pill on the header says how many sources the read is based on.

Is crowd confidence a prediction?

No. It reflects what people think will happen, not what will happen. Crowds are systematically over-confident in big clubs and in goals, and knowing that is part of the point — if 80% of the talk backs the favourite, a win by the favourite won't move you up the leaderboard much, and the crowd being wrong is where the multiplier is.

Where does the Buzz come from?

From a live web search across social posts, forum threads and fan-community discussion published in the 72 hours before the tab was generated, with the most recent 24 hours prioritised. The AI aggregates it; it doesn't quote individual posts.

What does the sources pill mean?

It counts the distinct platforms where the AI found real discussion of the match. A high count in green means the read is based on plenty of talk; amber means some; a red Low data pill means very little was found and the numbers should be taken with a grain of salt. A fixture nobody is talking about produces a Low data read by design — the tab never pretends there's buzz where there is none.

What's the difference between Buzz and Analysis?

Analysis is the AI's own view, built from stats, form, lineups and news. Buzz is everyone else's view, aggregated. They disagree more often than you'd think, and the disagreement is useful: when the crowd leans one way and the data leans the other, that's the match worth a closer look.

Is this prediction advice?

No. BetFollow is a free skill-based prediction game and the Buzz tab is research, not advice. The content does not constitute financial or gambling advice.

It's a summary of public opinion, and public opinion is often wrong. The call is always yours, and it's your name on the record afterwards.
