Question 1

What is the Heat Score?

Accepted Answer

The Heat Score is a multi-factor convergence engine that analyzes player props across recent trends, opponent defense, season averages, line value, minutes/usage, rest, teammate impact, game environment, and more. The number of factors varies by sport (e.g. 10 in MLB, 9 in NBA/NFL). Higher scores indicate stronger edges.

Question 2

How are Top Plays selected?

Top Plays are selected by our Heat Score engine across all sports. Lite mode shows a shortlist; full mode adds the complete ranked board and deeper analysis.

Question 3

What does 'Sharp Aligned' mean?

Accepted Answer

Sharp Aligned means the Heat Score direction matches the movement of the betting line set by sportsbooks. When data analysis and market movement agree, the signal is stronger.

Question 4

What's the difference between 'Best EV' and 'High Hit-Rate'?

Accepted Answer

Best EV ranks picks by expected value — long-term profitability per wager. Higher variance, best for bankroll-focused bettors. High Hit-Rate ranks by win probability — picks most likely to hit. Lower variance, best for parlays or conservative bettors. Both use the same model; they just prioritize different outcomes.

Question 5

How often are Top Plays updated?

Accepted Answer

Top Plays update throughout the day as new odds, injuries, and lineup information become available. Check back closer to game time for the most current picks.
