Who runs it
DFS Benchmark is owned and operated by the founders of The DFS Kitchen, a daily fantasy sports content and tools company. The DFS Kitchen appears on DFS Benchmark as a labeled house entry, graded under the same rules as every other tool. Data DFS Benchmark collects from other companies is never shared with The DFS Kitchen.
Because of that, the house entry comes with extra safeguards:
- The DFS Kitchen is graded under exactly the same rules and labeled "House" everywhere it appears.
- Its files are captured and fingerprinted before any other tool's files are downloaded that slate, so it never sees a competitor's numbers first.
- Data from other companies never reaches The DFS Kitchen.
- DFS Benchmark never calls itself "independent" or "unbiased." It earns trust through the rulebook, which is public, and the fingerprints, which let anyone check that nothing changed after lock.
For DFS companies
Participation is free and by consent. A company can send its files at the capture minute or authorize us to download them from our paid subscription. We publish graded numbers only, never your projections or ownership, and you can request a review of any result or withdraw at any time. The details are in section 9 of the rulebook.
