A free AI fantasy assistant that connects to your actual league
Yes. Sign up, connect your ESPN, Yahoo, or Sleeper league, and FantasyBot grades your team, ranks it against the rest of your league, and lists the moves worth making, immediately and with no credit card. You also get chat questions every day, resetting each morning, so you can ask follow-ups about your roster, a trade offer, or your waiver wire. Pro lifts the daily cap and keeps the full insights refreshing all season.
What you get without paying
Connecting a league is free and always will be, and the first thing you get is a real analysis rather than a locked preview: a full team grade, your league power rankings, and the specific moves worth making. Then you get daily chat questions on top. Pro is what lifts the daily cap and keeps those insights regenerating every week.
- Connect ESPN, Yahoo, or Sleeper, or screenshot a roster from any other platform
- Start/sit calls for your actual lineup, with projections and opponents
- A letter grade for your roster, broken down by position
- Trade evaluation against your specific scoring format and roster construction
- Waiver pickups that are actually available in your league, paired with drop candidates
- League power rankings showing where you really stand
Free, honestly, what the alternatives mean by it
"Free" covers a lot of ground in this category, and it's worth knowing which kind you're getting. Some fantasy connectors are free because they're a single developer's side project with no business model, genuinely free, but read-only data pipes with no analysis layer and no app. Some large fantasy platforms advertise a free account where the AI assistant itself sits behind a premium tier. And search engines now offer free fantasy answers by linking your account directly, though coverage varies by platform.
FantasyBot is free to start and charges for volume. You see the real analysis before you decide: the grade, the rankings and the recommended moves land the moment you connect a league, not behind a checkout. What Pro buys is more of it, a higher daily question cap and insights that keep regenerating through the season.
How FantasyBot actually computes an answer
Most AI fantasy tools are a pipe: they hand your league's raw JSON to a general-purpose model and let it reason from scratch. That works for reading a roster back to you and falls apart on anything requiring calibration, because the model has no fantasy-specific model of value, it's pattern-matching on text.
FantasyBot computes first, then explains. A positional grader scores every starting slot against the market curve, so a median starting lineup lands near 80 and an all-#1 roster approaches 100. Trade values come from a model calibrated to that same curve rather than a static value chart, which is why it can tell you a deal is fine in a 10-team redraft and terrible in your superflex dynasty. Weekly projections, matchup outlooks, and league power rankings all run off the same shared scoring, so the numbers agree with each other.
That's the difference you feel in an answer: you get a verdict with the figures behind it, not a paragraph of hedged prose.

Questions
Is FantasyBot actually free?
Free to start, with no credit card. Connecting a league is free, and you get a full team grade, league power rankings, and the moves worth making as soon as you sign up, plus chat questions every day. Pro lifts the daily cap and keeps the insights refreshing all season.
Do I need to pay to connect my league?
No. Connecting ESPN, Yahoo, or Sleeper is free and always will be, in ChatGPT, Claude, the iOS app and the web app. Paying only raises how many questions you can ask per day.
Is there a free AI that works with Yahoo fantasy?
Yes. FantasyBot connects Yahoo through Yahoo's own sign-in, on the free tier, subject to the same daily question allowance as every other platform. Yahoo support is less common than ESPN and Sleeper among fantasy AI connectors, so it's worth checking before you commit to a tool.
What's the catch with free fantasy AI tools?
Usually one of three: the AI assistant is premium even though the account is free, the tool is a raw data connector with no analysis, or setup requires a desktop browser extension. FantasyBot's free tier includes the full analysis and needs no extension. Its limit is a daily question allowance rather than a locked feature set, so you can judge the actual product before deciding whether to pay.
