Origin Of WiderTalk

The idea for WiderTalk was born in late 2023 while watching a football match in rural Romania. I was frustrated by the lack of commentary options. This sparked a realisation: in a world of personalised content, why can’t sports fans choose their commentators—by language, style, or expertise? Over the following months, I uncovered three core issues: mainstream commentary ignores diverse viewer interests, it's a common source of audience complaints, and aspiring commentators lack access. WiderTalk aims to solve all three—empowering fans to commentate, connect, and customise their sports experience. After months of development, we're gearing up for a major launch this October.
