ScoreSphere

ScoreSphere is Achraf Adjileye's earlier startup, a community-focused fitness and running analytics platform. Achraf shared the 26-page pitch deck with Mike on March 3, 2025, describing it as a Strava alternative rooted in community rather than individual data tracking. Mike did not co-build the product but acted as sounding board and gave strategic feedback on product-market fit.

Concept

The framing Achraf used, in his own audio from March 19, 2025: "Tu vois Strava comme ça, c'est exactement le même modèle d'app que je veux repliquer avec ScoreSphere." The differentiator he emphasized was community dynamics over raw data aggregation, the "snowball effect" of passionate fan-plus-tech-nerd user bases. ScoreSphere aimed to attract people who treated running as social identity rather than quantified self-improvement.

Status

ScoreSphere appears to have receded from active development through mid-2025 as Achraf's focus shifted onto BALLER and the football analytics suite co-built with Mike. The pitch deck was Achraf's solo design work.

Connection to Mike's Work

ScoreSphere anticipates Mike's Pulse thesis by several months. Both products address running as social behavior: ScoreSphere through community analytics, Pulse through live group coordination. Mike's statement on the ScoreSphere audio exchange, "De mon côté, je me suis rendu compte que c'est ce qu'il me faut aussi", signals that the community-first framing he later applied to Pulse was first heard through Achraf's pitch.
