Since his early days as a competitive EA FC gamer, Cenk has been immersed in the world of virtual football. From clinching 3rd place at a national FIFA tournament in Turkey back in 2000 to mastering the intricacies of FIFA Ultimate Team mode, Cenk’s passion for the game has only grown. Trading player cards and strategizing against fellow gamers became second nature to him, leading him to recognize the immense potential within the gaming industry.
EA FC, one of the globe’s most beloved football video games, captivates millions of players worldwide across 51 countries. At its core lies the acclaimed Ultimate Team mode (“FUT”), which has evolved into an industry-leading eSports game since its inception in 2004. With each annual release, the game’s popularity surges, igniting the competitive spirit within gamers.
In 2018, Cenk identified a crucial gap in the gaming community: the absence of a comprehensive trading assistant tool for FUT players. Determined to fill this void, he embarked on a mission to create a platform akin to the FTSE100 for stock markets, indexing players, their in-game statistics, and market prices. Thus, the “FUT Alert” mobile app was born, quickly garnering acclaim within gaming circles and amassing 170k downloads in its inaugural year.
Fuelled by this success, Cenk realized the need for expansion and innovation. Teaming up with REA Technologies in 2021, a distinguished software firm, he initiated the development of two groundbreaking websites. The culmination of their collaboration arrived in 2023 with the introduction of “FUTTY AI” – an AI-powered trading assistant designed to empower gamers with real-time insights and strategic recommendations. From identifying profitable player cards to advising on optimal selling times, FUTTY AI revolutionizes the gaming experience.
The exponential growth of Cenk’s endeavors captured the attention of investors, prompting him to embark on investment rounds aimed at propelling EA FC-related AI tools to new heights. With a vision to transform the landscape of sports-related AI, Cenk envisions FUTTY AI not only as a boon for FIFA enthusiasts but also as an indispensable resource for football aficionados and clubs alike.
As the journey continues, Cenk remains steadfast in his commitment to innovation, propelling the world of virtual football into uncharted territory with FUTTY AI at its helm.
