About BracketForge

The free bracket prediction platform for NCAA tournament pools.

Our Mission

BracketForge was built to make running bracket pools simple, fun, and free. Whether you're a commissioner managing a pool of friends or a participant filling out your bracket, BracketForge gives you the tools to enjoy every game — from the first tip-off to the championship.

What You Can Do

Create & manage pools — set up bracket pools with custom scoring, entry fees (tracking only), and payout structures.
Fill out brackets — pick winners for every game on an interactive, mobile-friendly bracket interface.
Live scoring & standings — automatic score updates as games finish, with real-time leaderboard rankings.
AI-powered insights — premium users get AI-generated pool recaps, outlooks, and bracket analysis powered by Claude.
Commissioner tools — manage members, track payments, edit picks, and maintain a full audit log of all admin actions.

FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY

BracketForge is a free-to-play bracket prediction platform for entertainment purposes only. No real money is wagered, won, or lost on this platform. BracketForge does not collect, hold, or transmit user funds at any time. Entry fees tracked within pools are collected and distributed directly between pool participants outside of this platform.

Support the Project

BracketForge is free to use and always will be. If you enjoy the platform and want to help keep it running, consider buying us a coffee. Every contribution helps cover hosting costs and fuels future development.
