Sharp Player Tools. Honest Pricing.

We're DFS players who got tired of overpriced tools that miss the mark. So we built what we actually wanted: optimization that finds real edges in contest dynamics, simulation that mirrors actual GPP variance, and tracking that shows where you're genuinely profitable. No fluff features. No inflated pricing from VC overhead. Just the tools serious players need to build sustainable bankrolls.

Winning Lineups Don’t Care How Much You Paid

⚡ Hero Lineup Optimizer

The optimization engine we actually wanted to use. Built to find real edges in salary inefficiencies and ownership projections, not just max out projected points.
