The Hidden AI Technology Building Pro Sports Schedules

In our latest episode of Future of Sports, presented by ADP, Fastbreak AI CEO John Stewart and Chief Product Officer Dr. Chris Groer discuss how artificial intelligence is reshaping one of the most overlooked but critical parts of the sports business: scheduling.

From balancing broadcast priorities and travel demands to optimizing league operations across professional sports, the pair explains how AI is helping leagues create smarter, more efficient schedules behind the scenes. They also break down the growing role technology plays in improving competitive balance, reducing operational complexity, and enhancing the fan experience.

As leagues continue modernizing their infrastructure, scheduling has become far more than a logistical challenge — it has become a competitive advantage.

A new weeknight TV show breaking down the business and culture of sports, premiering September 14th.
