On Tallysight, analysts express their betting opinions as picks, and they package those picks into betslips for sharing. Understanding these two concepts is the foundation for working with any Tallysight widget or feed.

What is a pick?

A pick is a single betting prediction tied to a specific outcome. Each pick contains the following data:
  • Outcome and market — the team, player, or result the analyst is backing (e.g., Lakers -3.5, Over 224.5)
  • Odds — the price at the time the pick was submitted, expressed in American, decimal, or fractional format
  • Sportsbook source — the book where the odds originated
  • Status — whether the pick is pending, won, lost, or push

What is a betslip?

A betslip is a named group of one or more picks submitted by an analyst at a point in time—similar to a parlay card. Analysts give their betslip a title, attach their picks, and publish it to their profile. Followers see betslips in their feed and can track how an analyst’s predictions perform over time. Publishers embed betslip feeds and individual betslip tiles on their own sites to surface analyst picks as live odds comparison widgets. See Feed widget and Betslip widget for embed details.

Pick lifecycle

Picks start as pending once an analyst submits them. When the associated game or event concludes, Tallysight resolves each pick to one of the following terminal statuses:
StatusMeaning
wonThe predicted outcome occurred
lostThe predicted outcome did not occur
pushThe result was a tie against the line (stake returned)
Resolved picks roll up into the analyst’s overall record, which appears in feed cards and on analyst profiles.

How analysts use picks

Analysts create picks and betslips directly inside the Tallysight platform. After publishing a betslip, it becomes visible in network feeds and appears in search. Each betslip contributes to an analyst’s tracked record, which helps followers evaluate accuracy over time.

How publishers use picks

As a publisher, you embed analyst picks on your site using the Feed widget and the Betslip widget. These widgets pull live pick data from the Tallysight API and render it as an odds comparison interface — complete with sportsbook logos, affiliate links, and live status badges.

Verified vs. community picks

The Feed widget supports three content scopes selectable via tabs:
  • Verified — picks from analysts who have been reviewed and approved by Tallysight
  • Community — picks from all other registered analysts
  • All — both verified and community picks combined
You control which tabs appear in your embed using the data-tallysight-widget-config-tabs attribute. See the Feed widget configuration for details.
