The fastest-growing sports gaming company – ever.
We build innovative games, products, and experiences for American sports fans.
We’re here to shake up the fastest growing industry with bold ideas, custom-built tech, and the drive to win.
Founded in 2020, our team has built four of today’s most widely played fantasy games and launched the Underdog Sportsbook – built entirely in-house with our own technology. That means we control our product, move fast, and create experiences you won’t find anywhere else.
In just over two years, we’ve reached over a $1.2 billion valuation, with investors like BlackRock, Spark Capital, SV Angel, Mark Cuban, Kevin Durant, and Adam Schefter. And we’re just getting started.
At Underdog, we believe that sports are for everyone. Join us.
