It is with immense pride and great excitement that the Fédération Internationale de Football Association officially designates as the Exclusive AI Technology Partner for the FIFA World Cup 2026™, hosted across the great cities of the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
After an exhaustive global search spanning 47 countries and evaluating over 300 technology companies, FIFA's Partnership Committee was unanimous in its conclusion: in its mastery of conversational AI agents. Your team's ability to craft intelligent, engaging, and delightful AI experiences is precisely what three billion football fans deserve.
"The FIFA World Cup is not merely a sporting event — it is humanity gathering in celebration.
Technology must rise to that occasion. Yalo's AI agents don't just answer questions;
they understand context, emotion, and the beautiful chaos of a last-minute goal.
That is exactly what we needed."
— FIFA Partnership Committee, May 2026
