BERACE
The F1 and MotoGP prediction app for friends
About
BERACE turns every Formula 1 and MotoGP weekend into a social prediction game. Fans predict qualifying and race results, starting grids, podiums, retirements, fastest laps and more, then compete in global or private leaderboards with friends. The mobile app also includes team chat, driver and circuit statistics, live race information, translated radio messages, an interactive map, news, quizzes and a reaction-time challenge inspired by real race starts. BERACE is available on iOS and Android with a free plan and an optional PRO subscription. It is not a real-money betting service: predictions are made for points, rankings and friendly competition. The community already includes more than 96,000 users, 15,000 private teams and over one million predictions, making every race weekend more competitive and social.

By the end of the hackathon, maybe about 10 hours in, I launched a wait list for people so they could sign up in advance before the tool was ready... I started getting a bunch of Stripe notifications from the early beta testers... I had just asked them to test the product.
Open A Waitlist Two Hours Before Launch So Stripe Fires Before The Product Is Ready
Two hours before the 12-hour deadline, Lewis flipped a waitlist live to people who'd been watching him build in public. Beta testers had free access but voluntarily paid through Stripe — hitting his 'idea to revenue before midnight' goal. The launch was just opening the door to an audience he'd already warmed up.
So far the results have been exactly our experiment results, which hardly ever happens. Usually when you release something out in the wild it's a little bit different. That is a credit to our growth marketing team and our product team — they really tested this rigorously.
Real-world rollout matching experiment results is the reward for rigorous testing
Most product experiments look messier in production than in a controlled test environment. The fact that Lose It!'s price doubling held up at full rollout is evidence of testing discipline: multiple platforms, multiple user cohorts, and enough duration to trust the signal before committing. Rigorous experimentation before a major price change is what lets you move decisively rather than nervously.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
