Anyone can claim a winning record<\/h1>

We built SportPulse because we could not verify a single one. Every pick here is time-stamped, locked and graded by machine \u2014 so the number on a tipster\u2019s profile is the number they actually posted.<\/p><\/div>

\/\/ How this works<\/p>

Four rules we cannot bend<\/h2>

They are enforced in code, not in a policy document.<\/p><\/div>

  1. <\/use><\/svg><\/span>

    Picks lock at publication<\/h3>

    A pick is time-stamped the second it goes live and cannot be edited or deleted afterwards. Not by the tipster, not by us.<\/p><\/li>

  2. <\/use><\/svg><\/span>

    Machines settle, not people<\/h3>

    Results are graded automatically against the official final score. Disputes go to a human, but the default is not negotiable.<\/p><\/li>

  3. <\/use><\/svg><\/span>

    Losses are as public as wins<\/h3>

    Every record on this site shows the full sample. There is no \u201cpremium\u201d record hiding behind a paywall and no cherry-picked highlight reel.<\/p><\/li>

  4. <\/use><\/svg><\/span>

    We do not take your bets<\/h3>

    SportPulse is not a bookmaker and earns nothing from your losses. Our only revenue is subscriptions, split with the analyst.<\/p><\/li><\/ol><\/div>\n\n

    \/\/ The settlement chain<\/p>

    No human touches a result<\/h2>

    The moment a pick is published it is hashed with its price, stake and kickoff time. When the fixture settles, the engine reads the official result and writes the outcome. A tipster\u2019s yield is recomputed from that ledger every time the page loads \u2014 it is never stored as a claim.<\/p>Read the method<\/use><\/svg><\/a><\/div><\/div>

    1. 1<\/span><\/span>

      Publish<\/h3>

      Pick, price, stake and kickoff are locked and time-stamped.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

    2. 2<\/span><\/span>

      Freeze<\/h3>

      The pick becomes read-only. Edits and deletions are rejected.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

    3. 3<\/span><\/span>

      Settle<\/h3>

      Official result read from the feed at full time; outcome written.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

    4. 4<\/span><\/span>

      Recompute<\/h3>

      Yield, hit rate and profit rebuilt from the full ledger.<\/p><\/div><\/li><\/ol><\/div><\/div>\n\n

      \/\/ How we got here<\/p>

      Two years, one obsession<\/h2><\/div>
      1. <\/span>

        The screenshot problem<\/h3>

        Started as an internal spreadsheet built to check whether three tipsters we followed were actually profitable. Two were not.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

      2. <\/span>

        Automatic grading<\/h3>

        Built the settlement engine \u2014 picks time-stamped on publication, graded against official feeds, no manual entry anywhere in the chain.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

      3. <\/span>

        Opened to analysts<\/h3>

        Invited the first cohort. The condition was simple: publish everything, or publish nothing.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

      4. <\/span>

        Public beta<\/h3>

        Records went public before subscriptions did, so nobody could pay for a number they had not seen tested.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

      5. <\/span>

        Where we are now<\/h3>

        Six verified analysts, 105 graded picks, and every one of them still visible on the site.<\/p><\/div><\/li><\/ol><\/div>\n\n
