EV Scanner
The EV Scanner is the heart of Qauntom. It continuously compares PrizePicks projection lines against the consensus odds from major sportsbooks to find plays where you have a mathematical edge.
How signals are generated
- Live odds are pulled from sportsbooks via the Odds API
- Implied probabilities are calculated from each book’s lines
- Consensus probability is derived from the market average
- EV is computed by comparing this consensus to the PrizePicks payout
A positive EV signal means the market thinks the outcome is more likely than the PrizePicks line implies — giving you an edge.
Reading a signal
Each signal row displays:
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Player | The athlete and their team |
| Prop | The stat category (points, rebounds, assists, etc.) |
| Line | The PrizePicks over/under number |
| Direction | Over or Under |
| EV % | The expected value percentage |
| Books | How many sportsbooks agree with the signal |
Signal strength
Higher EV % and more agreeing books generally mean a stronger signal. Signals backed by 3+ books with EV above 5% are considered high-confidence.
Use the Filters to narrow signals by sport, stat type, or minimum EV threshold.
