Featured Startup Pitch: RedraftHero – Seeking to ‘revolutionize’ the daily fantasy sports community

COMPANY: RedraftHero

ELEVATOR PITCH

All-in-one fantasy sports platform.

PRODUCT/SERVICE DESCRIPTION

As daily fantasy users, we’ve grown tired of the standard salary cap and platforms available—there needs to be something more comprehensive, something that has variety.

We decided it was time for a change. Time to revolutionize the daily fantasy sports community; to give you more options and more winnings. Whether you are a season long veteran or a daily league kind of person, we’ve got you covered. RedraftHero doesn’t stop there—we are more than a fantasy site. Our mission is to provide you with industry information, box scores, an impeccable user experience, and, most importantly, a community. Let’s transform the market and make it yours, together.

At RedraftHero, we want you to compete in various timeframes. Users shouldn’t be limited to overnight success or failure. Proving you are a winner is proving it throughout the season or daily, whatever you choose.

DIFFERENTIATORS VS. THE COMPETITION

FanDuel, ESPN Fantasy Football, DraftKings, Yahoo! Fantasy Sports

We provide a superior product since we are built for the user. We offer one of the lowest costs in the industry, but yet provide the users with more data, more tools, and more options to enhance their fantasy sports experience. We believe that our users should never have to leave our application to monitor their favorite team, draft their lineup, and cheer on their lineup scores.

BUSINESS MODEL

Five percent commission on prize pools.
