Frequently asked questions

An AI-powered sports betting intelligence platform. Discord bot plus web app. Free tier, $29.99 Pro, $79.99 Elite. Picks are virtual by default and tracked on-platform; live wagers happen at licensed sportsbooks via affiliate links.

No. We do not accept wagers, hold balances, or pay out winnings. We are analytics and community. Your real-money account lives with your sportsbook.

We are cheaper, free tier is real, and we combine analytics with a community + capper marketplace + academy. OddsJam is the leader for +EV finding at a high price; Unabated is a props power-tool for sharp bettors. We are for the everyday bettor who wants AI explanations, a Discord surface, and a path to become a capper.

Yes, as price-discovery tools, not a replacement for your sportsbook. Our methodology treats Kalshi and Polymarket pricing on sports event contracts as a leading indicator, especially for low-volume props like NFL Draft slot order. When a prediction market diverges 8 cents or more from a sportsbook on the same outcome, we flag it on the /nfl-draft/prediction-markets surface. See the 2026-novig-prediction-markets-primer blog for the full frame, and the glossary entries for novig, kalshi, polymarket, and cftc-dcm.

XGBoost ensemble today, migrating to an XGBoost + Random Forest voting ensemble in phase 2. Every pick ships with SHAP-style Edge / Signal / Context / Risk blocks so you see the reasoning, not just a number.

CLV = closing line value. Implied-probability delta between the price you bet and the sharp closing line. It is the strongest known long-run profit predictor at scale. We publish it on every capper and every model profile against sharp reference books (Pinnacle, Circa, Bookmaker). Read our full CLV essay for the math.

No. Anyone who does is selling you something. Variance is real. Our commitment is honest CLV tracking + transparent methodology, not guaranteed outcomes.

Apply via /apply-to-cap (Discord or web form). Publish picks. Every pick is auto-tracked for CLV. Min 25 picks to appear on the public leaderboard. Sportsbook affiliate revenue from followers you sourced is split 50/50 with you.

Because cappers who stay active are the business. A 50/50 share aligns incentives and is self-funding. Read our full post on the rev-share model for the reasoning.

No. The platform enforces no cherry-picking, no recency weighting, no backfill. That rule is what makes the CLV record trustworthy.

We are available in all 50 states because we are an analytics platform, not a sportsbook. Affiliate-link signups at sportsbooks are geo-gated to the 39 states plus DC plus Puerto Rico where sports betting is legal, but all other features work everywhere.

21+. Self-certified at signup; state-tied verification is rolling out before paid-tier scale.

First-class. /self-exclude in Discord freezes your account for a 30-day minimum cooling-off window. Every embed that references wagering includes 1-800-GAMBLER. Cappers pushing bet-chasing behavior have their 50/50 share frozen pending review.

No. The bot works inside our Discord server after you join. The web app is at nuropicks.com and runs in any modern browser. No download required.

Use /bet in Discord to log a pick. We auto-compute CLV, settle the bet from The Odds API /scores, and update your profile + leaderboard position.
