About The Lineup Is

The Lineup Is is a sports app for iPhone that answers one question: of all the games on today, which are actually worth watching?

Every day there are dozens — sometimes hundreds — of games across the NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, WNBA, soccer, college sports, tennis, golf, and Formula 1. The Lineup Is scores every one of them from 0 to 100 with an 11-factor importance algorithm, ranks the day's slate, and tells you in plain English why each game matters. It shows live scores, generates a short narrative for every game grounded in the real state of the season, and adapts to how much of a fan you are — Casual, Balanced, or Hardcore.

It's free to download and use on iOS 18 or later, with an optional Pro subscription that unlocks the full experience. An Android version is in the works.
