What your ESPN league gets
Every season you have played
ESPN keeps one league ID across seasons. LeaguePulse reads each of them, so champions, records and head-to-head history go back to the start.
A record book that keeps itself
Seventeen lists, with playoff and consolation games told apart from the bracket, and a post in the feed when a record falls.
Game day, live
Live scores, live win probability and a game of the week while the games are on.
AI beat writers
Columns, trade grades and live takes about your league, checked against its real data before they post.
Rivalries and analytics
All-time head to head between every pair of managers, and your league’s whole history as tables you can explore or ask about in plain English.
Franchises
Every manager runs their team and designs a 3D stadium for it.
Private ESPN leagues
Most ESPN leagues are private, so ESPN only shares them with signed-in members. One member copies two cookies from their browser, called SWID and espn_s2, once during setup. Sign-up shows exactly where to find them.
They are stored encrypted, used only to read your league, and never shown again. ESPN signs them out after about a year, and your admin page asks for fresh ones when it does. LeaguePulse never sees an ESPN password and never changes anything in your league.
What it costs
League Pass is $39 a year or $8 a month for the whole league, $3.25 a manager a year in a 12-team league. League Pass + AI is $79 a year. 14 days free, no card needed.
