1 Intro to Predictor Expert
In this Intro to Predictor Expert, you’ll get a quick overview of what you’ll learn, how to create a fully customized predictor to drive engagement, encourage competition, and collect valuable insights. We will:
- look at what a predictor is and when to use one
- preview the predictor we’ll build in this series
- outline the key steps: setup, scoring, form integration, and leaderboard

Hi, welcome back to the Riddle Academy
00:00:06.560 –> 00:00:09.200
and to this Predictor Expert workshop. My
00:00:09.200 –> 00:00:10.600
name is Charlotte, and in this series,
00:00:10.600 –> 00:00:12.880
you’ll learn how to create powerful
00:00:12.880 –> 00:00:15.680
customized predictors that you can
00:00:15.680 –> 00:00:18.640
use to drive engagement, to encourage
00:00:18.640 –> 00:00:21.040
friendly competition, and to collect
00:00:21.040 –> 00:00:23.280
those valuable audience insights.
00:00:23.760 –> 00:00:26.640
Sports is the most common context for
00:00:26.640 –> 00:00:28.920
using predictors for your audience to
00:00:29.360 –> 00:00:32.120
guess the outcome of a
00:00:32.120 –> 00:00:34.640
game. But the predictor can also be used
00:00:34.640 –> 00:00:36.480
for any other winner/loser/draw
00:00:36.480 –> 00:00:39.320
situation, notably forecasting
00:00:39.320 –> 00:00:42.080
election results, or other competitions
00:00:42.080 –> 00:00:44.240
such as music awards and business pitch
00:00:44.240 –> 00:00:46.440
competitions. Here’s one of the
00:00:46.440 –> 00:00:49.200
predictors that we’re creating. We
00:00:49.200 –> 00:00:51.840
are imagining that it’s the World Cup,
00:00:52.160 –> 00:00:55.120
and you as a sports club,
00:00:55.120 –> 00:00:57.100
organization, or even as a venue
00:00:57.100 –> 00:01:00.480
hosting some of these viewings for these
00:01:00.480 –> 00:01:02.120
games, want to
00:01:02.720 –> 00:01:05.360
engage your fans in the run-up to the
00:01:05.360 –> 00:01:07.100
games. We’ll be going through everything
00:01:07.100 –> 00:01:10.760
about predictors, from creating, to
00:01:11.440 –> 00:01:13.100
customizing, to integrating
00:01:13.100 –> 00:01:16.960
these Riddles into your flow.
00:01:18.320 –> 00:01:20.240
And so I look forward to having you on
00:01:20.240 –> 00:01:22.800
board for these next videos.
00:01:23.360 –> 00:01:26.320
Feel free, as always, to follow along as
00:01:26.320 –> 00:01:28.800
we go through the different sections, or
00:01:28.800 –> 00:01:31.400
to just pick and choose the parts or the
00:01:31.400 –> 00:01:33.440
videos that would help you most.
00:01:34.160 –> 00:01:36.960
Thank you for joining us, and I’ll
00:01:36.960 –> 00:01:39.440
see you in the first step to create a
00:01:39.440 –> 00:01:40.720
predictor from scratch.
