Create an account and you don't hit a paywall, you land inside the working product. I'd rather you see the real thing, lightly metered, than a locked screenshot. So before you ever add a card you get a free preview: the actual surfaces, the actual EV math, dialed back just enough that the live, full-speed edge stays behind the subscription.

A few things make this different from the usual locked teaser:

• Math shown, not hidden: on every signal you see the full EV calculation (what +EV means). The moat is freshness and volume, not redaction.
• Real edges, on a short delay: free signals are held back about 10 minutes; paid users get them the moment they land.
• Game lines only: moneylines, spreads, totals, and paired bets (what paired bets are) across the leagues I cover. That's the whole scope, free or paid.

What the preview gives you

• Intel Board and chat: a curated sample of today's edges, up to 3 signals and 1 view-only paired preview (arb / middle / gap), picked from the books you've added first, with an "add this book" nudge on the rest. Full EV math shown, delayed about 10 minutes. You get 3 fresh snapshots a day, refresh for a new set up to three times. The paired preview is view-only: you can open its outcome table and study the math, but logging and tracking paired bets starts at Strategist (how paired bets work).
• Filtering is paid: free users get the curated sample, not a filtered query. Ask for "NBA at FanDuel" and you'll get your sample, not a filtered result.
• Bet Tracker: the full tracker, with automated grading against the closing line. Logging is capped at 3 single bets a day; paired bets stay view-only until Strategist.
• Game Finder: yesterday and today's games, with the real line shopping: consensus, per-book prices, and the best number.
• Strategies: browse every system strategy and run the simulator up to 3 times a day (how the simulator works). You can't save one yet.
• Chat (Visor): ask the assistant up to 15 questions a day.

One timer for everything free

Your three signal snapshots, three bet logs, and three simulator runs all draw on a single rolling 24-hour window. The clock starts the first time you use any of them, and everything resets together, so you'll never see a preview you can't log because two timers drifted apart. One "resets in Xh" countdown, no timezone math, the same whether you're home or traveling. (Chat's 15-a-day runs on its own clock.)

What adding a card unlocks

There's no automatic trial: the free preview is the try-before-you-pay path, and adding a card flips it into the live product. At checkout you can use a first-purchase discount or a promo code (some codes grant a free trial period instead of a discount, like a 30-day free month; see the FAQ), one or the other (not both on the same checkout). Every paid plan, from the entry tier up, removes the preview's speed limit and daily caps:

• Fresh, full signals: no 10-minute delay, no daily snapshot cap, and full filtering by sport, book, and market.
• Full Game Finder history: the whole window beyond yesterday and today, plus the futures and outrights line-shop.
• Unlimited bet logging, auto-grading, and simulator runs.

From there the paid tiers differ by how much you build on top of the feed, not by how good the feed is:

• Observer is the full feed plus the prebuilt system strategies and CSV export. You read, log, and track everything, but you don't build your own strategies yet, and paired bets stay view-only.
• Strategist adds paired bets you can actually log and track (middles, arbs, gaps, not just the preview) and build-your-own strategies with custom filters, sizing, the auto-resizer, and custom performance criteria (paired bets, strategies).
• Director adds more strategy slots and the API and MCP server, so you can pull the whole feed into your own scripts or AI assistant (API & MCP).

Exact prices, daily caps, and slot counts live on the pricing page and in the FAQ. Those numbers change more often than the ideas here do, so I keep them in one place rather than letting them drift across the wiki.

The deal: the preview is the honest product, lightly delayed and metered, so you can decide with real data in front of you. The card removes the speed limit and the daily caps.
