Deep Blue Launches WS/AIM to Monetize Women’s Sports Fans

Deep Blue, Precise, and Genius Sports launch WS/AIM, a platform helping advertisers reach and engage women’s sports fans with data-driven, scalable campaigns.

Deep Blue Sports + Entertainment today announced the launch of the Women’s Sports Audience Intelligence & Monetization (WS/AIM) Service, built in partnership with Precise. This service creates the first premium private collaboration environment for advertisers to reach women’s sports fans efficiently. Genius Sports Limited (“Genius Sports”) is the platform’s first strategic partner, leveraging its proprietary FANHub as the primary platform for digital media activation around women’s sports.

Launching alongside NCAA Women’s March Madness, the platform allows brands to reach and engage women’s sports fans within and beyond sports content. The partnership combines Deep Blue’s strategic expertise in women’s sports, Genius Sports’ exclusive league relationships (including the WNBA and NCAA), and Precise’s proof-based collaboration technology to power data-driven marketing with transparency and precision.

Viewership of women’s sports has more than doubled in just two years. The WS/AIM Service was designed to transform fan insights into first-party audience segments, which will be activated through publisher-direct inventory, creating scalable media buying opportunities. Genius Sports’ FANHub serves as the sports-first activation layer, delivering dynamic reach and precise measurement.

At the core of the WS/AIM Service is a commitment to athlete, team, and league empowerment, ensuring all parties maintain ownership and control over their audience data. Built on Precise’s Proof-based lineage, the network enables verifiable, privacy-preserving collaboration, giving stakeholders transparency and direct monetization opportunities without compromising data integrity. Through this model, athletes, teams, and leagues can unlock new revenue streams while maintaining control over how their audiences are engaged. Deep Blue and Precise serve as strategic consultants in this capacity, helping organizations maximize the value of their audience intelligence and monetization strategies in a privacy-first marketplace.
