Build smarter pick'em slips in seconds.
The optimizer lines up each player's projection against the number the app posts, flags the legs with the clearest value, and helps you assemble them into a slip with the combined payout attached. It works on football, basketball, and baseball slates as each season comes around.
Built for pick'em apps
Projections, the app line, and the slip in between
Projection vs. app line
Each player's projected stat sits next to the over/under the app posts, so the legs where the two disagree most stand out at a glance.
Highest-value legs
The optimizer surfaces the legs with the clearest edge over the app's number, so you start from picks worth building a slip around rather than a wall of players.
Slip builder
Assemble legs into a slip and see the combined payout, so you can weigh the added upside against the fact that every leg has to land.
Every sport we price
It is designed around the major pick'em apps, and football, basketball, and baseball slates run through the same builder as each season comes around.
Auto-refreshing
Lines move through the day as news and lineups land, and the board keeps up, so the value you see reflects the current numbers.
Works on every device
You can build slips fast on phone, tablet, or desktop, and the optimizer looks the same wherever you are putting an entry together.
Pick'em, projections, and building the whole slip
A pick'em slip asks a simple question on each player, more or less than a posted number, and it pays based on how many land. The catch is that a slip needs several legs to hit at once, so a single strong pick is not enough and the value has to run through the whole entry.
That is where projections versus the app line come in. The line is the number you are picking over or under, and the projection is an independent estimate of where that stat is likely to land. When the projection sits well above or below the line, that gap is the edge, and the optimizer surfaces the legs where the gap is widest instead of leaving you to scan the board.
Slip construction closes the loop, because how the legs fit together shapes the risk and the payout of the whole entry. Stacking legs that move together plays differently than spreading across independent games, so the optimizer looks at the slip rather than at a list of picks. One honest note belongs here: a positive-value slip describes long-run value, not a promise. Any entry can miss, and the tool builds from value rather than guaranteeing a result.
DFS pick'em, explained
What is a DFS pick'em slip?
A pick'em slip is a daily fantasy entry where you choose more or less than a posted number for a set of players, then combine those picks into one slip that pays based on how many land. Apps like PrizePicks and Underdog are built around this format, and it works the same way for football, basketball, and baseball players.
How does a pick'em optimizer help?
The optimizer compares each player's projection to the number the app posts and flags the legs where the two disagree most, because those legs carry the clearest value. It then helps you assemble them into a slip and shows the combined payout, so you build from projections instead of eyeballing the board.
Which apps and sports does it cover?
The optimizer is built around the major pick'em apps, PrizePicks and Underdog among them, and it covers the sports MySpariEdge prices. You can build football, basketball, and baseball slips as each season comes around, because player projections and fair odds feed the same board.
What's the difference between a projection and the app's line?
The app's line is the number you are picking over or under, while the projection is an independent estimate of where that stat is likely to land for the game. When the projection sits well above or below the line, that gap is the value the optimizer is built to surface. A gap is an edge, and an edge is not a guarantee.
Why does slip construction matter, not just the individual legs?
A pick'em slip needs multiple legs to hit, so how the legs fit together matters as much as each one alone. Stacking legs that tend to move together, or spreading across independent games, changes the risk and payout profile of the whole slip. That is why an optimizer looks at the slip rather than at a list of good picks.
Is a +EV slip a guaranteed win?
No. Positive expected value describes long-run value, not the result of one slip. A well-built +EV slip can miss and a weak one can hit on any given night, because variance is part of daily fantasy. The optimizer helps you build from value, and it never promises an outcome.
