BugLines is the fastest way to bet on what you're watching on TV. Point your phone at any TV showing a game. BugLines reads the score bug, identifies the matchup in seconds, and puts the live odds on screen. Tap the card and you land in your sportsbook on the exact game. No searching, no scrolling, no fumbling through today's slate to find the one you're already watching. HOW IT WORKS - Aim your iPhone at the score graphic on the screen. - BugLines uses on-device computer vision to identify the matchup. - For tougher reads (logo-only score bugs, low-contrast graphics), zoom in tight and tap "Scan the score bug." A deeper detection layer takes one closer look. - With a subscription, the card fills in with live odds. Tap it to deep-link into FanDuel, DraftKings, BetMGM, Caesars, Kalshi, or Polymarket on the exact game. WHERE THE ODDS COME FROM Six books at launch. On the sportsbook side: FanDuel, DraftKings, BetMGM, and Caesars. On the prediction-market side: Kalshi and Polymarket US, CFTC-regulated exchanges where contracts trade between people rather than against a house. Because they price differently, an exchange and a sportsbook often disagree on the same game. BugLines shows you both. LEAGUES SUPPORTED AT LAUNCH NFL, NBA, WNBA, MLB, NHL, MLS, EPL, NCAA Men's Basketball, NCAA Women's Basketball, NCAA Football. PRO TIER: LINE SHOPPING Long-press any odds card to compare every book on that game side by side, sportsbooks and prediction markets together. The price isn't the same everywhere, and even small differences add up over a season. PRIVACY-LIGHT BY DESIGN No accounts. No name, email, or phone number required. No advertising identifiers. No analytics SDK. No cross-app tracking. We don't sell your data. We don't have any data to sell. The camera processes frames on your iPhone using Apple's Vision framework; the only thing that ever leaves your device is the photo you capture by tapping Scan, and that's deleted by our processing partner within 30 days. NOT A SPORTSBOOK OR EXCHANGE BugLines does not accept wagers, execute trades, hold funds, or process payments. We display third-party prices and link you to each book's own app, where the real transaction happens. Always confirm the price there before you act, since odds may be delayed or stale. SUBSCRIPTION Identifying the game on your screen is free. Live odds, one-tap deep links, and line shopping require a subscription. Standard gives you live odds across every supported league and one-tap access to your chosen book on the exact game. Pro adds line shopping, comparing all six books on that game at once. Both are available weekly or monthly, and new subscribers get a free trial of Pro. Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period at the disclosed price. You can manage and cancel your subscription in your Apple ID account settings after purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial period will be forfeited when the user purchases a subscription.
