Upgrade your Draft night with Blake & Finn

Quick disclosure up front: I'm one of the people who built this, so this is self-promo. Mods, happy to take it down if it's not allowed or move it to the right thread.

We made Fantasy Draft Channel. You plug in your Sleeper league ID and during your draft two AI announcers call every pick live on a broadcast-style board, roasting reaches, hyping steals, doing round recaps. It runs on a second screen, ideally the TV in the room while everyone drafts on their phones.

It only works with Sleeper right now. Sleeper's the only major platform with an open draft API, which is why we built here first.

Why we made it: drafts got quieter as they got more optimized. Everyone's heads-down in the app and the board isn't a thing in the room anymore. This puts something back in the middle of it.

A few things that came out of building it:

commish can set league superlatives beforehand (who always reaches for a QB, who's the waiver-wire guy, what the real rivalry is) and the announcers work it in

there's a logo/helmet designer so every team gets a custom helmet on the board, free to use even if you don't draft with us

you can dial how spicy it gets

Mostly posting because we'd rather hear from people who actually use Sleeper than guess. What would make this worth having at your draft, and what sounds annoying? Happy to answer anything, including the skeptical stuff.
