## What is DraftMatrix?

Draft night moves fast. DraftMatrix keeps you ahead of it.

DraftMatrix is a live fantasy hockey draft board built around tiered rankings. Instead of a flat list, players are grouped into tiers per position — Centers, Wings, Defense, Goalies — so you can see scarcity at a glance, and when a tier is about to run dry the board warns you before it's too late.

TRACK THE DRAFT
• Tap a player when another team drafts them — one tap, crossed out
• Star players onto your roster; undo any mistap instantly
• Draft clock tracks the round, overall pick, and how many picks until your turn (snake or linear)
• Keepers supported — marked drafted without advancing the pick clock

KNOW WHO'S LEFT
• Tier counters warn when a tier runs low and flag the last player
• Best Available shows the top remaining player at every position
• Roster needs: "Still need C 1 · D 2 · G 1" against your league's lineup
• Filter by position, search every list, or hide drafted players
• Bookmark targets before the draft and filter the board to them

AI SUGGESTIONS, FULLY PRIVATE
Stuck between two players? Apple Intelligence analyzes your roster, your open starter slots and the remaining pool, and recommends a pick with a plain-English rationale — entirely on your device. Nothing about your draft ever leaves your iPad or iPhone. (Requires a device with Apple Intelligence.)

MADE FOR DRAFT DAY
• Multiple drafts with independent boards — run two leagues side by side
• Draft state syncs between your devices through your personal iCloud
• Import your own rankings from a CSV, or export the board
• Works offline: cached rankings and a built-in snapshot keep the board alive
• Keeps the screen awake, dark mode, full keyboard shortcuts on iPad

Rankings are compiled from publicly published expert fantasy hockey rankings and public average-draft-position data, positions from public roster data; tiers are computed on your device. No account, no ads, no tracking, no data collected.

DraftMatrix is an independent draft tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any professional hockey league, team, or ranking publisher.
