Draft Types

Auction Drafts

Use budgets and bids when the most popular choices need a transparent way to find their winner.

Auction drafts are best when demand is uneven and the group needs a transparent way to decide who gets the most valuable picks.

How it works

Let value decide the winner.

Give participants a budget, make the choices visible, and run bidding around the items people want most.

01

Define the pool

Add the items, opportunities, dates, or resources people will bid on, then set how many auction slots the draft has.

02

Set each balance

Give every participant a bidding balance — one at a time, or the same amount for everyone in a single step.

03

Run the bidding

Slots come up one at a time. Everyone bids inside a timed window, the high bid wins, and a tie goes to a runoff.

04

Close each slot

The draft pauses at every open slot so an admin can run the auction, and you choose whether bid amounts are public.

Best fit

Use Auction Drafts when demand is uneven.

Premium choices

Allocate the most desirable games, shifts, dates, or items without relying only on turn order.

Sales opportunities

Let teams bid for accounts or leads when value differs across the pool.

Custom competitions

Give fantasy leagues or office pools a more strategic way to select from shared assets.

Product depth

Auctions need visibility and control.

Auction drafts work best when participants can compare choices, understand limits, and see the result.
