Frequently Asked Questions

Is this gambling advice?

No. OddsShift is an information tool — it publishes model-generated picks with the reasoning behind them so you can make your own decision. It isn't affiliated with MLB or any sportsbook, and nothing here guarantees a result. Betting involves real financial risk; only wager what you can afford to lose. See our Responsible Gambling page for support resources.

How does the model actually work?

Every game and player prop is scored using real inputs: pitching matchups, platoon splits, lineup strikeout rates, park factors, weather, bullpen strength, recent form, and more. A pick only gets published if it clears a validation bar — every market is backtested on real historical results and real historical prices (not just hit-rate) before it's allowed to go live. If a market doesn't hold up walk-forward, it doesn't ship.

How do I know the record is real?

Every graded pick is public — wins and losses both stay on the board permanently, nothing is deleted or cherry-picked after the fact. Results are pulled straight from official MLB box scores. You can check the full history any time on the Track Record page.

What does OddsShift actually cover?

MLB only, for now — moneylines, spreads, totals, player props, and curated same-game and cross-game parlays, published daily before first pitch.

What's the difference between Sharp and Pro?

Sharp unlocks every parlay leg, all top picks and best bets with full reasoning, live tracking as games play out, and track-record breakdowns by bet type and model score. Pro adds prop-by-prop edge breakdowns, personal bet analytics on everything you tail, and model calibration data as it updates. Full pricing is on the homepage.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes — cancel anytime from your Account page with no penalty. See our Subscription & Refunds policy for the full details on billing and refund eligibility.

Do you place bets for me?

No — OddsShift never touches your money or places bets on your behalf. You pick a preferred sportsbook in your Account settings (or use "Best line" to see the top price across books), and every pick links out to that book so you can place it yourself in a couple taps.

Something went wrong with my account or a charge — who do I talk to?

Email oddsshift@gmail.com and we'll sort it out directly — that's almost always faster than going through your bank or card issuer.
