YouBeQB Inc. operates in the fantasy sports market, offering a platform for football fans to engage with live NFL and college games in a distinctive way. Founded on October 1, 2006, by Kris Billmaier, the company provides an interactive online game that diverges from traditional fantasy sports. Billmaier's inspiration stemmed from an informal game he played with friends, which he then developed into a formal online platform.
The core of YouBeQB's service is a real-time predictive game where users score points by guessing the offensive plays that will be called next during a live football game. This model allows for in-game decision-making, a departure from conventional fantasy leagues where player selections are locked in before games commence. Participants are awarded points based on the accuracy of their predictions, with more points given for correctly guessing rarer or more difficult plays.
The company is based in Bellevue, Washington, and targets fantasy sports enthusiasts who follow both professional and college football. YouBeQB has successfully raised funds from investors with strong ties to the football community, including notable NFL figures Joe Montana and Ronnie Lott. The business has expressed intentions to form partnerships with major football organizations like the NFL and the NCAA to expand its reach.
