'''StatSheet''' was an [online](/source/online) sports content network based in Durham, North Carolina, which was powered by an automated publishing platform.  The network included 345 sites - one for every [Division 1](/source/Division_I_(intercollegiate_athletics)) [college basketball](/source/college_basketball) team.  The company had previously announced that the network would continue to grow, and would include sites covering nearly every [college](/source/college_sports) and [professional sport](/source/professional_sport) by the end of 2011.<ref>[https://techcrunch.com/2010/11/12/automated-news-sports-statsheet/ “Automated News Comes To Sports Coverage Via StatSheet”, Schonfeld, Erick, TechCrunch, 12 Nov 2010]</ref>

StatSheet was founded in 2007 by Robbie Allen,<ref>[http://www.newsobserver.com/2010/06/01/509829/sports-stats-arent-just-a-hobby.html "Sports Stats Aren't Just A Hobby Now", Ranii, David, NewsObserver.com, 1 June 2010]</ref> a 13-year veteran of [Cisco](/source/Cisco), where he worked as an engineer in their [IT](/source/information_technology) department.

In addition, the company provided a service called Embed StatSheet, which allowed customers to integrate historical or real-time stats, charts, and other graphical elements on a website or [blog](/source/blog).

Each sponsored site provided real time updates, game previews, game recaps, injury updates and other reports, all published automatically using no human [journalist](/source/journalist)s, [blogger](/source/blogger)s, or other writers.  StatSheet also provided users with access to its [data](/source/data) visualization platform designed to organize, generate, and deliver relevant real-time and historical [statistics](/source/statistics) through a central portal.  Users could query these statistics, build custom graphs and charts,<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/external/readwriteweb/2009/05/27/27readwriteweb-statplot-create-beautiful-sports-charts-in-m-4632.html “StatPlot: Create Beautiful Sports Charts in Minutes”, Kirkpatrick, Marshall, The New York Times, 27 May 2009]</ref> and receive real-time updates<ref>[https://techcrunch.com/2008/12/17/sports-fans-keep-up-with-your-teams-on-stattweets/ "Sports Fans Keep Up With Your Teams On StatTweets", Schonfeld, Erick, TechCrunch, 17 Dec 2008]</ref> on specific players and teams.
