The same bet pays different amounts at different sportsbooks. The Odds Gap puts every book's price on one board, so finding the best line takes seconds instead of fifteen open apps. The Odds Gap compares odds. It never takes a bet, never holds money, and never tells you what to bet. Every price is informational, pulled from each operator's posted odds. When you tap a sportsbook or exchange, it opens outside The Odds Gap: in that operator's own app if you have it installed, otherwise in Safari. Anything you do there happens with them, not with us. LINE SHOP Moneylines, spreads, totals and futures from every major US sportsbook plus the prediction exchanges Kalshi, Polymarket US, ProphetX and Novig. The best price on every side is flagged. GAME PAGES One page per game with every book's price side by side, the opening line, and how the line has moved since. PROPS Player props across the books, with the best price for each over and under. HEDGE FINDER Work out a hedge on a bet you already have, turn a free bet into cash, size a profit boost, and scan the board for arbitrage and middles, with the stakes calculated for you. PROFIT BOOST WALLET Save the boosts your books hand you: the percentage, the max stake, the expiry, and the game it is good on. From then on the bet slip applies the right boost to a qualifying bet and shows what it would actually pay, and the Hedge Finder loads your saved boosts on its own so you can size a stake around one. TOG BOT Ask a plain-English question about prices on the board, like "nfl tonight" or "best price on the Lions moneyline", and get the answer with the prices behind it. It answers only from prices the site shows, never gives betting advice, and takes no bets. Free with live prices turned on (email only). BET TRACKER Log your bets, have them settled from final scores, and see your closing line value: whether the price you took beat the price at kickoff. DFS PICK'EM PrizePicks, Underdog, Betr and Pick6 lines set next to the sportsbook market for the same player and stat. ALERTS Watch a game and get a push notification when a price you care about moves. ALSO Eleven betting calculators, a Learn hub, and a light and dark mode. No picks. No touts. No income promises. We show the math and you decide. Free. Some sportsbook sign-up links pay us a commission; the prices shown are the same for every book either way, and partners get no boost in the rankings. Sign-up links appear only in states where that operator is licensed. For adults of legal betting age (21+ in most states). If gambling stops being fun, call or text 1-800-GAMBLER.
