The story

About sixty seconds of reading

Ryan Kellermeyer and his wife are Philadelphia Eagles fans living in Indiana. They already paid for Sunday Ticket, which still doesn’t carry every Eagles game. When a game fell outside it they took their toddler to a restaurant that had it on — a workaround that stopped being realistic with a second child on the way.

Rather than subscribe to everything, he built the schedule out himself: every game his team played, which service carried it, what each cost, and how few of them he could get away with. That turned into HuddleMaxx.

The tool takes a team and a ZIP code and returns a season plan — which services to start, which weeks to start them, which to cancel, where a free trial covers a single game, and which games an antenna gets for nothing. The free tier covers one team. Pro is $14.99 a year and handles households following several.

Kellermeyer runs it solo, alongside a day job managing a family lawn and tree care company in Marion, Indiana. He has also filed comments and reply comments in the FCC’s sports-streaming proceeding and submitted a Statement for the Record to the House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Sports Broadcasting Act — so he is available as a source on the policy fight, not only as a founder.

Ryan Kellermeyer, as told to Bloomberg

“A simple, true team pass would be excellent. Let us watch the game on TV in real time for one fee, one login.”

Ryan Kellermeyer, as told to Bloomberg

“A marketplace where consumers need an optimization algorithm to stop overpaying by 57% is not, in fact, working.”
