Live in-game picks · model-rated +EV · REST + MCP

Model-rated +EV live picks your bot or AI agent can trade.

Not just model picks: every live bet carries the model's chance to hit and its after-fee expected value at the current price, re-checked every minute, and the bets the model rates positive-EV are flagged. Read them over REST or MCP; you, your bot or your agent places the trade.

Positive EV, not just picks

Not just model picks. Model-rated +EV live picks.

During a game the model prices every live market it covers against the current price, after the exchange fee. Each live card carries that expected value, and the bets the model rates positive-EV are flagged, so you, your bot or your agent can filter to them and trade.

  4. After-fee EV, per contractabove zero: flagged plus_ev: true

EV is the model's estimate at the moment the card is checked, not a guarantee. On past games, picks like this one ran about 5–8¢ per contract below the model's EV. MintSlips never places a trade.

What you can build

Your bot. Your rules. Our live model.

MintSlips never trades for anyone. The API gives you the model's live picks and their after-fee EV; what you do with them is yours to build.

Featured idea

An auto-trading bot on the live +EV picks

Stream the live cards, keep the bets the model rates +EV above your own threshold, and send the order from your code to your own exchange account. The live record shows how the live picks have settled so far.

import json, os, requests

H = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['MINTSLIPS_KEY']}"}
URL = "https://mintslips-public.mintslips.workers.dev/api/v1/stream"

with requests.get(URL, headers=H, stream=True) as r:
    event = None
    for line in r.iter_lines(decode_unicode=True):
        if line.startswith("event:"):
            event = line[6:].strip()
        elif line.startswith("data:") and event == "live.bet_changed":
            bet = json.loads(line[5:])["data"]["card"].get("bet")
            if bet and bet["plus_ev"] and bet["ev"] >= 0.03:
                # your code, your exchange account, your call
                my_place_order(bet["ticker"], bet["side"],
                               limit=bet["ask"])

my_place_order is yours to write against your own exchange account. The stream is a Pro feature; on any tier you can poll /api/v1/live instead.

Each settled live-card bet once, at the size its card suggested and the price shown when the card switched to it, after fees, counted under the cards' current rules. A small sample. Past results do not predict future results.

How it works

From key to +EV live picks in one call.

Get a key

Sign in on mintslips.com and create an API key on the docs page. It's shown once; keep it secret.

Call the API or connect MCP

Fetch the board over REST, or add the MCP server so your agent can call the tools itself.

You, your bot or your agent trades

Chance to hit, fair price and after-fee EV for every bet, with the model's +EV ones flagged. The trade is yours to place, on your own account.

One request

Today's board, as JSON.

One authenticated GET returns every pick with its numbers. Same data the picks page shows, shaped for code.

  • probThe stated chance every leg hits, 0 to 1.
  • fair_centsThe fair price of a $1 contract at that chance.
  • max_pay_centsThe most the pick is priced to be worth paying.
  • legsEach leg's description and its own chance.
  • disclaimerOn every response. Estimates, not guarantees.
Works with your agent

One MCP server. Three ways in.

Your agent gets six read-only tools. None of them can place, suggest placing or automate a bet.
