What is Upon Review?

Upon Review is a small experiment in how we read sport. Most post-match writing tells you what happened. This site tries to explain why it happened — the constraints, matchups, sequencing, and tradeoffs that shaped the result.

Each article starts from structured match data: events, lineups, scoring patterns, and other facts pulled into a consistent format. An AI pipeline then works through that material in stages — analysis, planning, drafting, review — with rules that favor mechanism over recap and evidence over hot takes.

I built it because I am a developer who cares about sport and wanted a playground for exploring what AI is actually good at here. Can it connect patterns across a game without inventing plays? Can it stay grounded when the narrative gets tempting? Can it make a match feel clearer, not louder? Upon Review is where I poke at those questions.

The tone is meant to be curious, not preachy. Sport is fun. Understanding it better — seeing the logic behind a transition, a bullpen move, a press that broke — makes it more fun. That is the whole point.
