ChalkPicks

Stop filling out brackets. Start drafting teams.

ChalkPicks is the tournament pool app that turns March Madness into a fantasy draft. Grab 3 friends, draft NCAA teams in real time, and compete for points as your teams advance through every round — from the Round of 64 to the Championship.

LIVE SNAKE DRAFT Take turns picking teams in a real-time snake draft with a shot clock. Strategize around seeds, matchups, and your friends' picks. Auto-draft kicks in if you miss your window. The pool owner can pause, extend the timer, or undo picks — full control, zero hassle.

INTERACTIVE BRACKET Watch the tournament unfold on a full, color-coded bracket. Every team is highlighted with its owner's color so you can see at a glance who's alive, who's eliminated, and who's pulling ahead.

LIVE GAME TRACKER Follow every game with real-time ESPN scores, tip-off times, and TV networks — all filtered to the teams in your pool. No more flipping between apps.

SCOREBOARD & PAYOUTS Points stack as your teams win, with underdogs earning more per round. The scoreboard tracks standings, shows point breakdowns, and calculates winners automatically.

BUILT-IN CHAT Talk trash, celebrate upsets, and mourn eliminations right inside your pool. No separate group text needed.

NOT JUST MARCH MADNESS Run pools for Big Ten, ACC, SEC, and Big 12 conference tournaments too — with automatic team counts and bracket formats for each.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Create a pool and invite friends
2. Draft teams in a live snake draft
3. Earn points as your teams win games
4. Higher seeds score more — but underdogs multiply faster
5. Most points at the end wins

ChalkPicks makes tournament season the best three weeks of the year.
