We Built a World Cup 2026 Prediction App — and You Can Try It Right Now
The FIFA World Cup is coming soon. We built something fun for it.
If you’ve ever done a prediction league with family, friends, or colleagues — filling out brackets, arguing over group stage results, tracking who’s winning the office pool — you know how much fun it can be. You also know how much of a pain it is to manage manually.
Spreadsheets get messy. Someone always forgets to submit their picks. Standings take forever to update. And by the time the knockout rounds arrive half the group has lost interest because nobody knows where they stand.
We thought we should take a different approach.
Introducing the WM2026 Prediction App
The WM2026 app is a full web application built specifically for FIFA World Cup 2026 prediction leagues. It handles everything — registration, predictions, scoring, and live standings — automatically, so you can focus on the football (soccer for the Americans).
Here’s how it works:
Get the app and create your league Each participant creates an account and joins their group. No spreadsheets, no email chains, no chasing people for their picks.
Submit your predictions Before each match kicks off, participants submit their predicted score. The app tracks submission deadlines automatically — no late entries once the whistle blows.
Automatic scoring Results are entered after each match and the app calculates points instantly. Correct result, correct score, or exact scoreline — each earns a different points value.
Live leaderboard Everyone can see exactly where they stand at any point in the tournament. The leaderboard updates in real time as results come in — no waiting for someone to manually update a spreadsheet.
Who Is It For?
The app is perfect for:
- Friend groups who want a proper prediction league without the admin headache
- Offices and workplaces looking for a fun World Cup activity that runs itself
- Private clubs and communities who want a branded, professional experience for their members
What We Built It With
For the technically curious — the app runs on a modern, reliable stack:
- Python and Flask for the backend
- PostgreSQL for the database
- Google Cloud Run for hosting — or on a server in your organization
- Custom domain and email integration so it feels like a real product
The entire thing was designed, built, and deployed by MacroWorks Automation — from blank screen to live application.
