About Propeller

AI-assisted player-prop research with inspectable signals, a dated historical archive, and clear limits on what legacy data can prove.

By Scott Olmer, Founder · Reviewed July 15, 2026

What Propeller Does

Propeller Picks is an AI-assisted player-prop research workspace for web and mobile. The signed-in product supports NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, soccer, and PGA; the free public analyzer currently exposes NBA, NHL, MLB, NFL, and soccer. Availability varies by season, slate, and data.

The displayed 50–100 confidence score shows how strongly the available signals support the displayed More/Over or Less/Under direction. It is directional research context, not a calibrated win probability or guarantee.

Historical analysis rows are graded after events finish and summarized on the Results archive and methodology page. The archive includes repeated snapshots and legacy retrospective data; it is not a uniquely published forward-test or ROI record.

Performance Track Record

Propeller has analyzed and graded player prop predictions across supported sports, with sport and confidence-bucket breakdowns available through the public Track Record page.

The public archive separates raw graded analysis rows from entries retained under the API's current collapse rules. Sport, signal-range, and direction breakdowns describe those historical rows; they do not establish a clean cohort of independent recommendations.

How the AI Engine Works

Each sport uses a sport-specific analysis pipeline. Available signals and active weights vary by sport, prop, model version, and production calibration. Signal categories include:

  • Injury Agent — Models direct injury impact plus cascade effects on teammate props
  • Matchup Agent — Position-specific defensive matchup quality (Defense vs. Position)
  • No-Vig Agent — Bilateral no-vig market estimate across multiple sportsbooks
  • Pace/Volume Agent — Game environment and statistical opportunity adjustments
  • Hit Rate Agent — Recency-weighted performance trends and consistency analysis
  • Usage/Minutes Agent — Playing time trajectory and role change detection

Only available signals contribute to a listed prop's directional score; a missing or neutral signal is not treated as an independent vote. Learn more on our How It Works page.

Methodology and Transparency

Propeller's public archive exposes grading inputs and results that are available in the current API. It also states what is missing from legacy rows: a reliable publication time, model version, evaluation mode, and consistent price data.

Directional signal ranges should be read alongside sample size, sport, market type, and direction. Historical outcome rates are descriptive and do not demonstrate ROI, profitability, or future results.

Read the editorial and corrections policy, the grading explanation, and the canonical archive definitions before quoting performance figures.

Built for Pick'em Players

Propeller was designed for player-line research used with PrizePicks, Underdog Fantasy, and DraftKings Pick6. It uses plain-language More/Over and Less/Under directions instead of confusing betting jargon. Sportsbook lines such as FanDuel may appear only as market context.

Propeller is independent, does not submit entries or place wagers, and is not affiliated with the platforms it references.

Available on the web and on mobile. Current signup terms and access details are shown in the product at the time you register.
