The front office software suite for college sports
Dropback is building front office software for the future of college sports. We help major athletic departments manage their teams' "salary caps" and roster limits to construct their most competitive rosters. Just two years ago, it became legal for athletes to earn an income beyond their scholarships. Since then, despite college athletes earning $2B+, rapid regulation change has put college sports in disarray. Dropback brings order to this chaos through custom compensation frameworks, roster management, what-if playgrounds, and more--ultimately helping elite programs optimize spend & maximize talent.
As reported in public records reported — not modeled.
Solid bars are reported offering amounts reported; hatched bars are the modeled post-money valuation est. — both on one shared scale so you can read raise-vs-worth at each round directly. Use the toggles to overlay data labels and the niche-peer / market average value lines.
No round amounts on record to chart.
No staged rounds to sequence.
Round size and date are reported; the stage label is inferred from round size. Valuation is modeled from stage benchmarks. Directional, not a quoted figure.
Not enough modeled valuation points to chart a trajectory.
Benchmarked against 1063 companies in Fintech. Each bar is a median (the middle company, not an average — outliers don't skew it). Two yardsticks: real money raised (reported on Form D) and modeled value (our estimate est.). These are whole-sector medians across all stages, except the per-stage row.
Raised more than 66% of sector peers (real $). Modeled value above 66% of peers (estimate).
Stage is inferred from round size est., not reported on the filing — a round's dollar size maps to a bucket: Pre-Seed <$1.0M · Seed $1.0M–$4.0M · Series A $4.0M–$15M · Series B $15M–$40M · Series C $40M–$100M · Series D+ $100M–$400M · Growth/Late >$400M.
