Doctor Vorp is fast because of the companies underneath it. These are the partners we chose, what they do for us, and our thanks to them.

Doctor Vorp’s speed wouldn’t be possible without twitterapi.io. Their real-time feed is how a beat writer’s post reaches us seconds after it goes up — the first step behind almost every alert we send.

How we use twitterapi.io
A live stream of the 150+ NFL beat writer social media accounts we follow, pushed to us as each post is published.
Every post is read for roster news the moment it lands — injuries, practice reports, depth-chart changes.
Why them: A push stream rather than polling, which is the difference between seconds behind the source and minutes.
Yahoo Fantasy is our league-sync partner. Yahoo league sync is built on Yahoo’s Fantasy Sports API, so Yahoo managers can bring their leagues in alongside every other league they play.
Lists your Yahoo leagues so you choose which ones to bring in — nothing comes in until you pick it.
Reads the rosters in those leagues, so we know which players are on your teams.
Your roster is used for one thing: telling an alert which of your players it’s about. It never reaches our models.
Why them: Yahoo’s Fantasy Sports API is the official way to read league data — direct from Yahoo, under their developer terms, with no screen-scraping.
