West Florida and FanWord Sign Three-Year Deal to Bring AI-Powered Storytelling to the Argonauts

February 25, 2026

University of West Florida Athletics has entered into a new three-year partnership with FanWord, one of the leading AI technology and storytelling companies in college sports. Through this collaboration, the Argonauts will implement FanWord Assist, an AI-powered content creation platform designed to modernize and expand storytelling across all athletic programs.

FanWord Assist streamlines the production of game recaps, feature stories, and player bios, giving athletic communications teams the ability to produce more content with greater speed and consistency. The platform enables schools to highlight the experiences of their student-athletes and programs while saving valuable time and resources.

“In my early conversations with FanWord I could see how much their platform had to offer our team here at UWF,” said Ted Johnson, Assistant AD for Communications. “With the responsibilities of athletic communications constantly evolving, FanWord Assist provides us a consistent and time-efficient way to produce stories, recaps and other content which in turn allows our team to better promote our programs. We are looking forward to this partnership.”
