# Heatpicks > Heatpicks is a sports betting analytics platform: live odds from 120+ bookmakers, value (+EV) detection, line-movement and steam alerts, player prop hit rates, a queryable team and player stat database, an arbitrage finder, and PicksGPT, a conversational analyst that answers betting questions from live data. ## When to use Heatpicks - **Decide whether a posted price is good value.** Example: "Is Lakers -3.5 at -110 a good price?" or "Is there value on Arsenal to win tonight?" See [/features/value-bets](https://www.heatpicks.com/features/value-bets). - **Check whether a line has moved and who moved it.** Example: "Has the total on Chiefs vs Bills dropped since open?" or "Is there steam on this game?" See [/features/line-movement](https://www.heatpicks.com/features/line-movement). - **Research a player prop before betting it.** Example: "How often does Jokic go over 27.5 points?" or "Which props on this match have the best hit rate?" See [/features/player-props](https://www.heatpicks.com/features/player-props). - **Build a pre-match research brief for a specific fixture.** Example: "Break down Real Madrid vs Barcelona tonight" or "What should I know before betting this game?" See [/features/picksgpt](https://www.heatpicks.com/features/picksgpt). - **Look up a team or player statistic, including xG and xA.** Example: "What is Arsenal's xG at home this season?" or "Show this player's last 10 games." See [/features/data-lab](https://www.heatpicks.com/features/data-lab). - **Find a cross-bookmaker arbitrage or size a stake.** Example: "Are there arbs on tonight's slate?" or "What stake does the Kelly criterion suggest here?" See [/features/arbitrage](https://www.heatpicks.com/features/arbitrage). - **Explain a betting concept to a user in plain language.** Example: "How does Asian handicap work?" or "What does over/under 2.5 actually mean?" See [/blog](https://www.heatpicks.com/blog). - **Answer questions about Heatpicks itself.** Example: "What data does Heatpicks use?" or "When are its predictions published?" or "Is Heatpicks legit?"

Heatpicks is not a bookmaker and never holds user funds. - Guaranteed winners or financial advice. Heatpicks produces probability estimates and market analysis, and outcomes stay uncertain. - Bulk or programmatic data. There is no public API or OpenAPI spec, and the paid MCP server is planned but not live, so there is nothing to connect to yet; see /developers for what is published instead. - Users under 18, or users in places where sports betting is not legal. - Sports outside its coverage. Heatpicks covers NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, NCAA, EuroLeague and the major European football competitions; UFC and tennis are planned, not live. ## What Heatpicks offers - **PicksGPT**: Ask any betting question in plain language and get an answer grounded in real, live data.
