Outlier vs +EV Bets
Props vs game lines. Different jobs. Run both for $61.99/mo.
The honest summary
Outlier is a props-research tool. DFS pick'em props (PrizePicks, Underdog, Sleeper, DK Pick6) plus sportsbook props with bet-placement to seven books (FanDuel, DraftKings, BetMGM, Caesars, Bet365, ESPN BET, Underdog). Polished native app (4.9/5 on the iOS App Store, 16K ratings — meaningfully higher rating volume than OddsJam). Three tiers: Premium ($19.99/mo, hit-rate visualization), Premium+ ($29.99/mo, adds Pinnacle-devigged EV+ indicators), and Pro ($79.99/mo monthly / $29.99/mo at annual, full EV Power Feed).
+EV Bets is a game-lines +EV scanner that also covers player props. Moneyline, spread, and total, plus player-prop over/unders for NFL, MLB and NHL, on FanDuel and DraftKings. The FairLine™ math is exposed on every edge, and every game-line edge is graded in a public W-L ledger at /results. $42/mo or $199/yr, one plan, no tiered upsell.
Different jobs. If props research is your whole edge — DFS pick'em, hit rates, more books — Outlier is the right tool. If you bet game lines, we're the right tool, and our NFL, MLB and NHL prop over/unders come with it. If you want both, run the stack: Outlier Premium ($19.99) + +EV Bets ($42) = $61.99/mo for full props + game-lines coverage — vs Outlier Pro alone at $79.99/mo, which still doesn't cover game-line +EV the way we do.

Why curated +EV beats raw +EV
"OddsJam gives you a lot of plays that decrease in value after you take it... plays in apps like Outlier Pro […] often move in your favor 80–90% of the time."
— OddsJam App Store review, naming Outlier Pro as the curated alternative
That observation is the thesis our quality filter is built on: curated +EV beats raw +EV. We built the filter from 1,290 backtested experiments and 20K+ graded bets to drop the long tail of edges that look like +EV at the moment they post but reverse by the close. An OddsJam reviewer named Outlier Pro as the curated alternative on the props side; we publish the same approach as our headline math for game lines. The shared takeaway: a raw +EV firehose (which OddsJam shows by default) is hard for retail bettors to act on before the line moves. Curated +EV — where the filter has already dropped the false-+EV tail — is the workable version.
Use Outlier if…
Player props are a meaningful part of your edge
Props is Outlier's wedge — projections, hit-rate filtering, one-click bet placement on partnered sportsbooks. If your edge depends on prop research, this is the right tool.
You want native mobile
iOS + Android apps, 4.9/5 across 16K ratings. App-first UX with one-click bet placement is real value for mobile-only bettors. We're mobile-web only.
You're using PrizePicks / Underdog / Sleeper
Outlier covers the DFS pick'em surfaces (PrizePicks, Underdog, Sleeper, DK Pick6) that we don't touch. That's a real lane we cede.
The casual entry price fits
Premium at $19.99/mo is the lowest entry point in the +EV-adjacent tooling category. If you're early in the +EV journey and want to dip in cheaply on props, this is a fair starting point.
Use +EV Bets if…
You bet game lines on FanDuel + DraftKings
Moneyline, spread, total — across NFL, NBA, WNBA, NHL, MLB, NCAAF, NCAAB. We're game-lines specialists; Outlier doesn't play in this lane.
You want the math exposed on every edge
The FairLine™ — our vig-free fair-price model — is shown alongside the book line and the EV %. You argue the bet rather than just take a recommended selection.
You want a public, audited W-L ledger
Every game-line edge we surface is graded — win, loss, push, unit P&L, ROI, CLV — on a public page anyone can audit at /results. Outlier doesn't publish platform-level verification; we do.
You want flat pricing — no tiered upsell
One plan, $42/mo or $199/yr, everything included. No Premium → Premium+ → Pro ladder. No sport-scope sub-axis. One number, one decision.
Running both — the stack math
If you bet both props and game lines, here's how the math actually pencils out:
Outlier Pro alone
$79.99/mo
Deepest Outlier props research. No game-line +EV. No FairLine. No public W-L ledger.
+EV Bets alone
$42/mo
Full game-line +EV with FairLine math and public ledger, plus NFL, MLB and NHL prop over/unders.
The stack — both
$61.99/mo
Outlier Premium ($19.99) + +EV Bets ($42). Props from Outlier; game-line +EV with public ledger from us. Saves $18/mo vs Outlier Pro alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is +EV Bets the same thing as Outlier?
No — different markets. Outlier is a props-research tool covering DFS pick’em props (PrizePicks, Underdog, Sleeper, DK Pick6) plus sportsbook props with bet-placement integration to seven books (FanDuel, DraftKings, BetMGM, Caesars, Bet365, ESPN BET, Underdog). +EV Bets is a +EV scanner for game lines — moneyline, spread, and total — plus player-prop over/unders for NFL, MLB and NHL, on FanDuel and DraftKings. The overlap is narrow: sportsbook prop over/unders in those three sports. The two products live in different lanes of the same +EV worldview.
Should I cancel Outlier if I subscribe to +EV Bets?
Probably not, if props are a real part of how you bet. We cover a set of player-prop over/unders for NFL, MLB and NHL at FanDuel and DraftKings; Outlier covers far more prop markets and books, DFS pick’em and hit-rate research. The clean answer: keep both. Outlier Premium ($19.99/mo) + +EV Bets ($42/mo) = $61.99/mo for the full props + game-lines workflow. Outlier Pro alone is $79.99/mo and still doesn't cover game-line +EV the way we do. If you only bet props, stay on Outlier. If you only bet game lines, use us. If you bet both, run the stack.
Does +EV Bets cover player props?
Partly. We cover player-prop over/unders for NFL, MLB and NHL on FanDuel and DraftKings, each priced against a no-vig consensus of other books. We don't cover DFS pick’em, yes/no props such as anytime touchdown scorer, or props in other sports, and props are not in our public W-L ledger yet. If props research is the core of your edge, Outlier (or OddsJam at the high end) goes deeper.
How is +EV Bets different from Outlier Pro at $80/mo?
Outlier Pro is the top tier of Outlier's props-research product — deeper data, more markets, more books, advanced filters for the same props-research job. +EV Bets is a +EV scanner for game lines plus player-prop over/unders for NFL, MLB and NHL, with the FairLine math exposed on every edge and every game-line grade in a public W-L ledger at /results. Different products. The stack math: Outlier Premium ($19.99) + +EV Bets ($42) = $61.99/mo for props + game-lines coverage, vs Outlier Pro ($79.99) for deeper props alone.
Why are Outlier reviews more positive than OddsJam reviews?
Outlier sits at 4.9/5 on the iOS App Store with 16K ratings — roughly seven times the review volume of OddsJam (4.7/5 with 2.2K ratings) and meaningfully higher rating. Two reasons we see: (1) Outlier targets a less price-sensitive ICP — at $19.99/mo, the value math is easier to justify than OddsJam Gold at $199.99/mo. (2) Outlier ships a polished native app; OddsJam users complain less about the tool and more about billing/cancellation friction. Both products are well-built; the wedge isn't product quality, it's the gap between price and bankroll.
Can I follow the same approach Outlier teaches with +EV Bets?
In spirit, yes — both products surface positive-EV opportunities you act on. The mechanics differ. Outlier surfaces props edges with hit-rate-based filtering and recommends specific prop selections. We surface game-line and prop edges with the FairLine fair-price model shown next to the book line and the EV % so you can argue the bet yourself. If you've built a workflow around Outlier's flow, you'll find ours math-heavier and less prescriptive — that's the design difference.
