What's Coming Next

A peek at what we're working on

The Lottery Pool is a free organizer for friends and family pools. Here's what we're scoping next — nothing here is promised or scheduled, just what's on our radar.

Researching

More pool types

Raffle, bingo, 'biggest deer' pools, item pools — anything friends want to compete on, not just lottery numbers. We're checking state-by-state rules before opening this up because raffles in particular are tightly regulated.

Exploring

Auto-check your tickets

Snap a photo of your ticket and the app reads the numbers, compares them against the official drawing, and tells you instantly whether you won. We're weighing barcode scanning against AI vision — both are technically possible, the question is which is reliable enough at scale.

Future

Buy tickets without leaving the app

Pool members pay in, the app coordinates the actual lottery purchase through a licensed courier, and the ticket photo lands in the pool automatically — no more 'who's running to the gas station.' Only feasible in states where licensed couriers (think Jackpocket-style services) already operate, so this one is state-dependent.

Have something else in mind? Mention it to your pool host — feedback comes back to us through them.
