Fair questions, straight answers.

An AI fantasy football assistant that connects to your real league. Ask start/sit, waiver, trade, matchup and strategy questions in plain English; Ribby answers with your actual roster, wire, opponents, standings, byes and kickoff times in view — in a scout's voice — and ends with a one-line verdict. Around the chat sits the whole app (the daily briefing, an exact lineup optimizer, the lock strip, waivers priced off your league's FAAB history, power rankings, two-sided trade grades, playoff odds, the player x-ray), none of which costs a question. Draft HQ — the draft board and live war room — comes with every plan when drafts roll back around.

ESPN, Yahoo, and Sleeper leagues connect today, read-only, in about a minute. Sleeper is a username. Yahoo is a button. ESPN is a bookmark and a tap. Ribby reads your league's real scoring — half-PPR, full PPR, superflex, TE premium, “every 25 passing yards” — auto-detected, and never recommends on a stat your league doesn't count.

For live draft tracking: Sleeper syncs through its official API; Yahoo syncs through its official API; ESPN syncs through the Ribby companion — a small browser extension that reads your own draft tab, because ESPN allows only one draft connection per member. ESPN post-draft import needs no extension at all.

A dedicated DFS analyst for the DraftKings NFL Classic slate on Sundays and the MLB slate every night: salaries, Vegas lines and props, weather, confirmed lineups, and a deterministic lineup optimizer — all graded against real results after every slate. Daily access is included on select plans; see pricing.

Both. He has a real personality — a sharp, dry, slightly sassy scout who's had two coffees — because if you're going to spend seventeen weeks with a coach, the coach had better be good company. He never punches down at you, he never says “Great question!”, and every actionable answer still ends with Ribby's Call: one line, on the record. The jokes ride on top of the math, never instead of it.

7 days and 10 full-context questions on your real league, no credit card. Every screen of the app is open for the whole trial and costs no questions at all — the 10 are for asking Ribby things. When it ends, your account goes read-only until you pick a plan. Nothing sneaky happens after the trial, and nothing auto-enrolls.

Anything about your league, in your words. “Who do I start at flex?” “Is this trade a rip-off?” “What should I bid on him?” “Who covers my Questionable receiver if he sits?” “Why is the 3-0 team eighth in your power rankings?” “Roast my roster.” He reads the lineup card, the injury report and the news before he answers a lineup question, and he'll tell you when the honest answer is “nothing to do this week.”

Yes — and there's nothing to download. Open Ribby in your phone's browser and add it to your home screen: on Android, Chrome's ⋮ menu → Install app (some versions word it "Install and create shortcut" or "Add to Home Screen"; if it offers both, choose Install rather than the shortcut); on iPhone, Safari's share button → Add to Home Screen. You get a Ribby icon that opens full-screen with no address bar, stays signed in, and updates itself — no app store, no waiting on review.

The question meter. One question costs one token; every paid plan includes a monthly allowance, and one-time packs top up any account. Tokens never expire, so what you don't spend carries forward into the playoffs. Every screen of the app — the briefing, the optimizer, the trade desk, the odds — is free and never draws a token.

No — it's the house rule the whole product is built around. Ribby cites numbers from our own database (weekly lines, snap counts, target share, air yards, Next Gen Stats, projections). If something isn't there, he says “I don't have that” instead of improvising. The same law applies to this website: every figure on it is pulled from that database, and we date them.

We grade ourselves. Every DFS projection is logged when it's made and scored against actual results after every slate — the Model Report Card inside the product shows the whole record, hits and misses. The in-season situation flags (who's out around a player and what that opens up) ship with their measured weight from five seasons of history, and new signals only earn weight in our models when graded backtests prove they help.

Yes. The baseball side of the product is live for the leagues that have it — category math, two-start weeks, platoon splits, the works. We're just talking about football on this site right now because it's football season, and a website should know what month it is.

Yes. Billing runs through Stripe and you can switch plans or cancel from your account in a couple of clicks. Cancel and you keep access through the period you paid for. Ribby will not take it personally. Probably.
