What's New

Brackets now lock automatically based on the actual tip-off time of the first game. A live countdown shows exactly when brackets close.

Premium pools receive AI-generated commentary — upset alerts, elimination waves, standings shakeups, and win probability scenarios updated throughout the tournament.

Every pool now has a dedicated home page with six live widgets: commissioner message, pool stats, countdown timer, mini standings, scoring overview, and recent messages.

Players can now submit multiple bracket entries in the same pool. Switch between entries with the new entry selector, and each entry is scored independently.

During the bracket submission window, the standings page shows which members have submitted picks and who still needs a reminder.

Commissioners can upgrade pools to Premium for AI commentary, custom pool logos, and advanced standings. A new upsell card during pool creation highlights what Premium unlocks.

Filling out your bracket on a phone is now a breeze — the mobile picker walks you through each region step by step with large tap targets and clear matchup cards.

BracketForge is now a Progressive Web App. Add it to your phone or tablet home screen for instant access — no app store download required.

Final game scores are pulled in automatically so your pool standings stay up to date — no need to refresh or wait for manual updates.

Create a pool in minutes with the new step-by-step wizard — choose your tournament, customize scoring, set entry rules, and invite friends with a shareable link.
