WELCOME TO BAYES ESPORTS

Your gateway to the future of esports

WHO WE ARE

When you think about the games that have transformed esports into a global phenomenon, you think of games such as LoL, CS:GO or Dota 2. All of them are based on mods created by fans.

When you think about the stages these games are played on, you think about the ESL and Riot Games, who saw the potential of esports and continued to believe in this industry even when others did not.

Bayes Esports is no different. We started off as a start-up keen on creating tools and mods for gamers before venturing into esports data. What many thought to be impossible, we made possible and proved them wrong.

Now, we are partnering with ESL Gaming, Riot Games, and many more. We have built platforms centered around official data that give rights holders, tournament organizers, service providers, sportsbooks and media companies the tools they need to continue the success stories of esports.

THE STORY OF BAYES ESPORTS

The birth of Bayes Esports

Our story began in 2014 when we started Dojo Madness, a small start-up with a simple focus - creating tools to help gamers. Our expertise in game data was noticed, and we joined forces with Sportradar in 2016 to tackle the challenges of providing live esports odds and data science solutions. The Sportradar Team eventually became us, the Bayes Team, named after Sir Thomas Bayes, and in 2019, we officially founded Bayes Esports. We were determined to become the leader in esports data and partnered with Riot Games to offer worldwide distribution of esports data. With the launch of our Bayes Esports Data Exchange (BEDEX), we knew we were on the cusp of revolutionizing the esports data industry.

Growing our network and innovations

We didn't stop there. We continued to expand our partnerships and soon became the leading supplier of esports live data, collaborating with industry giants like BTS, OGA, and ESL. We created the Team Data Portal for League of Legends esports teams to access private scrim data and founded Shadow Esports to enhance the fan and team experience. We revolutionized the handling and availability of betting odds in esports with our Bayes Esports Odds Exchange (BODEX). Our network of partnerships continued to grow, and we collaborated with game developers and tournament organizers like KRAFTON and BLAST Premier, as well as betting operators and service providers such as bet365 and GG.BET. We pour our hearts and souls into our work and are driven by the excitement of being part of a thriving ecosystem.

Pushing the boundaries of what’s possible

We do not settle for being second best and continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in the realm of esports data, uniting the brightest minds from within the industry and beyond. We are honored to be chosen by the industry for numerous awards and are eager to partner with more and more game developers, tournament organizers and betting operators.With our wide range of experience and expertise and established partners by our side, we will continue to be innovators and a driving force for the development of the industry.The sky is not our limit and we are just getting started!
