Your league mates are asleep.
We're watching your waiver wire.
Waiver Wizard monitors your ESPN or Sleeper fantasy league around the clock and sends you an instant alert the moment a player's projection jumps or their injury status changes. Be first to know. Be first to act.
Free to start. ESPN & Sleeper leagues. Takes 60 seconds to set up.
The waiver wire moves fast. Most managers move slow.
Player news doesn't wait for you to check your phone. By the time you open ESPN, someone else already grabbed him.
You're busy
Projection changes happen Wednesday at 2pm, Friday at 6pm, Sunday morning at 11am. You're at work, at dinner, asleep.
Windows close fast
In competitive leagues, a hot waiver pickup can be gone within minutes of the news breaking. Checking ESPN twice a day isn't enough.
You lose the week
Missing one key pickup — a RB2 going to starter, a TE's backup popping — can be the difference between winning and losing your matchup.

Real situations where Waiver Wizard wins you the week
These happen every single week of the NFL season.
The Mid-Week Practice Shake-Up
A beat reporter tweets that a WR2 just got elevated to the starting role after the WR1 went on IR. ESPN updates his projection from 6 pts to 14 pts within minutes.
❌ Without Waiver Wizard
You're in a meeting. You check ESPN at 7pm. He's already been claimed.
✅ With Waiver Wizard
Waiver Wizard fires an alert at 2:31 PM. You see it on your lunch break. You put in the claim. You win.
The Friday Injury Report
The starting TE is ruled OUT on the Friday injury report. His backup's projection jumps from 4 pts to 11 pts. It's Friday evening — most managers won't check until Saturday morning.
❌ Without Waiver Wizard
Someone else's Waiver Wizard fires before yours. You miss the window.
✅ With Waiver Wizard
You get the alert at 5:46 PM. You're first in the waiver queue. Backup TE scores 13 pts Sunday.
5 Minutes Before Kickoff
Breaking news: your RB1 is a surprise inactive — not on the injury report, just a coach's decision. His backup's projection jumps 8 pts and he's sitting on waivers in your league.
❌ Without Waiver Wizard
You're tailgating. No idea. Your opponent also doesn't know... but his friend texted him.
✅ With Waiver Wizard
Alert hits your phone at 11:53 AM. You add the backup before kickoff. You cover your RB1 loss. You win by 4 pts.
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Common questions
Is it really free?
Yes. The free tier is genuinely useful — you get real alerts for your real league at no cost. Premium unlocks faster snapshots and more customization.
Which leagues are supported?
ESPN fantasy football leagues right now. Yahoo and Sleeper integrations are on the roadmap.
How do I connect my ESPN league?
You'll need your ESPN League ID and your SWID + ESPN_S2 tokens (for private leagues). We have a step-by-step guide that walks you through finding them in under 2 minutes.
How fast are the alerts?
Free users get snapshots every 15 minutes. Premium users get snapshots every 5 minutes — 3x faster. Either way, you'll know long before most managers even open ESPN.
Will I get spammed with alerts?
No. Alerts only fire when something meaningful changes — a real projection jump or status update. You can also customize thresholds on Premium to control exactly what triggers a notification.
When does the season run?
The NFL regular season through fantasy playoffs — roughly September through January. Premium access covers the full window through January 31st.
