The product is a cloud-based live auction fantasy football draft board platform developed over several years by an individual who created it for personal use in a fantasy football league. This platform includes a comprehensive user interface, an admin console, a database, and support resources. Its unique selling point is supporting live auction-style drafts, where teams bid in real-time while present in the same location, addressing specific challenges typical to such drafts. Included with the platform is the application’s source code, marketing assets, website, and associated documentation.
This platform sits within a niche area with significant potential for growth and expansion, particularly through features such as API integrations with major fantasy league sites. Opportunities exist for the new owner to expand into other fantasy sports and monetize the platform by introducing a payment gateway, enhancing mobile and social media engagement, and offering robust reporting and data analytics for player cost tracking.
Operationally, the platform requires minimal annual maintenance focused on uploading a master draft list, with all other functionalities being user-driven. While there have been no paying customers, the creator’s league has utilized this platform for four years, and several users have engaged with a demo version. With fantasy sports being a significant industry, estimated at $7 billion, the platform is poised for potential growth.
Current operational costs are limited to hosting and an email account, and the seller will provide two weeks of support post-sale. Included assets feature the source code, marketing materials, website, and social media account with a moderate following.
