Office sports pools, without the spreadsheet. Share one link. Your players pick on their phones. Standings do themselves. Commish runs the pool so the commissioner does not have to. Create a pool, send one link, and everyone is in — players sign in with an email code, Apple or Google, pick their own name, and start picking. No accounts to set up for anyone. THREE WAYS TO PLAY • Confidence — pick every game, then rank your picks by how sure you are. A right pick earns its number. • Survivor — pick one team a week to win. Lose, tie or miss a week and it's a strike. • Pick'em — pick every winner, one point each. NFL, college football (pick your conferences) and MLS. GAME DAY ON YOUR PHONE • A reminder two hours before your first kickoff, if you want one. • A Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island while your games are on: the scores, your picks, your points, your place. • A Home Screen widget with your standing and the next lock. • "Hey Siri, open my picks." FOR THE COMMISSIONER • Correct a result, with every change written to a log the whole pool can read. • Rules on the screen: deadlines, strikes and tiebreakers, set once per pool. • Standings that move the moment a game goes final. NO MONEY IN THE APP. EVER. No pot, no entry fees, no payouts. What your pool plays for is your business, and Commish stays out of it. PRICING Free for pools under ten players. A pool with more players needs a plan for the season: Standard (up to 30 players) or Unlimited. One price per pool per season, paid once by the commissioner, in the app or on the web.
