Build a research sequence

NFL: start with Top Props for the ranked slate or Game Center for the matchup, use Role Radar for opportunity changes, and check Matchup Explorer, Target maps or Touchdowns for the specific question. Finish with the exact prop and current price.

MLB: start with Game Center for the pitcher and lineup, then use Prop Center for a player market. Exit Velocity adds contact-quality context; Weather Report adds conditions. NRFI is a separate first-inning question requiring both pitchers and offenses.

WNBA: shortlist a player in Top Props, inspect the game log and role, use Hit Rate Matrix for threshold comparisons, and add Defense vs Position context. Multiple tools can reuse the same underlying observations, so their agreement is not necessarily independent evidence.

NCAAF: use Top Props for the specific player market or TD Board for scoring research. Check current team, role, sample size, and available operator coverage.

Hit Rate Matrix

The individual matrix guide explains how to compare cells, samples, thresholds, and prices. A higher historical hit rate at a lower threshold does not establish value without its offered price.

Availability and missing data

Research covers NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, WNBA, and NCAAF. NHL has been live since September 25; see the NHL overview. NBA research is open for the 2026-27 season, preseason included; most books post NBA player lines from opening night, October 20, so a preseason slate can have no prices. See the NBA overview.

Within a supported tool, coverage depends on the slate, market, and available history. A blank metric is unavailable information; a grade is a research summary rather than a win probability. Account access can also differ by feature; read the in-app access message and current plan comparison.
