Worth every penny

This app has helped me gain a total of 5k from 2 months of using it. Constantly looking to make 3 man parlays and cashes around 85% of the time.

Consistently beating the closing line

This app has been really clutch for me so far. I've had some great steals and I can consistently beat the closing line odds/projection with the plays it gives me.

Paid for itself

Gambling involves risk. Duh. This app is a great tool, especially for something you just have in your pocket. I paid for the subscription and then some the first night using it.

It's Totally Worth It

All I have to say is I have no regrets subscribing to this app. I've been stacking paper like squirrels stack nuts for winter.

Great app I love the arbitrage betting sadly got limited because of it though but the +EV bets are awesome just got into it a few weeks ago it's amazing how much the line moves when you catch a good line.

OPTIMAL is betting, fantasy and live sports in one app. It grades every line, finds the best price at every major sportsbook, makes cheat sheets for the pick'em app you play and follows every big play live. Our models calculate the expected value of player props, totals, spreads and moneylines.
No. Grades are probabilities, not promises, and every pick can lose. OPTIMAL is not responsible for any decisions made, financial or otherwise, based on information provided by this application. OPTIMAL cannot guarantee the correctness of the information contained within the applications.
EV, short for expected value, is the most vital mathematical concept in sports betting. When we say that something is +EV it means the bet is expected to be profitable in the long run. Whereas a bet that is -EV is expected to lose money in the long run.
Letter grades combine EV, win percentage, and other confidence signals into a single, easy-to-understand rating. Higher grades indicate bets that balance profitability with reliability. An "A" grade represents a bet that scores well across multiple dimensions — not just raw EV.
A unit is whatever your standard bet is. OPTIMAL uses 1% of your bankroll to generalize a unit. For example, if your bankroll is $1000, a 5 unit bet would be $50.
