CADi Competition

Causal performance and counterfactual evidence for professional teams: substitution, selection, injury, recruitment.

What a different call would plausibly have achieved - to win more, and to answer the board.

A substitution second-guessed for a season

A professional team's biggest decisions - substitution, selection, injury management, recruitment - are second-guessed constantly, by the owner, the recruitment committee and the crowd. What is almost never available is evidence of what a different call would plausibly have achieved.

This is the one non-regulated vertical: there is no supervisor to satisfy. The case is competitive edge and defensible decision-making - winning more, and being able to answer the people the sporting director and the board answer to.

What CADi Competition does

CADi Competition evidences the decisions a professional team is answerable for: substitution, selection, injury, recruitment. There is no regulator here - the case is competitive edge and defensible decision-making.

It produces a causal performance-and-counterfactual record showing what was known, the decision taken, and what a different call would plausibly have achieved - evidence to win more and to answer the sporting director, the owner and the board, not an auditor. It is the clearest proof the causal engine generalises beyond regulated finance.

What you get

The cost of the call

A causal record of what was known, what was decided, and what a different call would plausibly have achieved - the second-guess, answered with evidence.

Edge, not compliance

The one non-regulated vertical: the record is for winning more and defending the decision, not for satisfying a supervisor.

Answer the owner and the board

Evidence to put in front of the sporting director, the owner and the recruitment committee - the people a club actually answers to.

Proof the engine travels

The same causal engine that governs regulated decisions, aimed at the pitch - the clearest demonstration it generalises beyond finance.

Who it's for

Professional teams & clubs

Organisations whose substitution, selection, injury and recruitment calls carry real competitive and financial weight, and are constantly questioned.

Sporting directors & ownership

Those who must answer for the big calls to the board and the recruitment committee, and want evidence of what each one truly cost.

How the engine applies

CADi Competition is one product in the CADi range: the same deterministic causal engine - nine layers, a do-calculus core and a hash-chained audit trail - pointed at a team's decisions.

Estimating what a different call would plausibly have achieved is exactly what the causal engine does. Applied outside regulated finance, with no supervisor in the loop, it is the clearest proof the same governance generalises to any decision worth defending.

Where this is today

CADi is at v0.9 - built and running end-to-end - on nine pending UK patents. CADi Competition evidences the reasoning and opportunity cost behind a team's decisions; it does not make the call and does not guarantee a result.

The causal mathematics is rigorous and correctly implemented. Today it runs on an assumed causal graph with heuristic inputs; it is analytical approximation on assumed inputs, not yet statistically validated against live outcomes. We lead with the rigour, and we name the caveat.
