Age Restriction

You must be of legal gambling age in your jurisdiction to use this Service — a minimum of 18 years old in most jurisdictions and 21 years old in some US states. If you are under the applicable minimum age, do not use this Service.

Know Your Jurisdiction

Sports betting and gambling are regulated differently across US states, countries, and territories. It is your responsibility to know and comply with the laws of your jurisdiction. Homeplate Metrics makes no representation that using our analytics for betting purposes is legal in your location.

The Limits of Our Models

Our 7-model ensemble produces probability estimates — not certainties. Even a high-confidence NRFI prediction can be wrong. No analytical tool can predict the outcome of a baseball game with certainty. Past accuracy of our models does not guarantee future performance.

• Never bet more than you can afford to lose
• Do not use rent, mortgage, or essential living funds to place wagers
• Treat betting as entertainment, not as a reliable income source
• Set a budget before you start, and stick to it

• Spending more time or money gambling than intended
