Make a sting
Each week we post every NFL game with its current spread, averaged across the major sportsbooks and prediction markets (more leagues coming soon after trial). Pick the side you like. That's your sting.

See where the honey’s flowing
Your sting contribution unlocks that game's splits: see where the entire hive is leaning, and who the sharpest stingers are backing. Come back any time before kickoff to watch the data move.

Every sting is tracked
Yours and the entire Hive’s stings lock at kickoff and are graded against the spread after the final whistle. Your record is yours, it's public to the Hive, and it can't be edited.

Rise above, while helping all
Make at least 12 cumulative stings to contribute to the Hive’s crowdsource data set and you qualify for tier competition and potential bragging rights (12 is just a baseline to get things rolling, this number will be automatically boosted as we grow to improve the data set).
The Tiers:
Worker Bees: where everyone starts and most stay: 75% of the Hive.
Collectively, the top 25% of the Hive–the non Worker Bees–are the Sharpstingers.

Why it works
Anyone can tell you where the public's money is going. LineStinger shows you where the proven winners are leaning. The more stingers who join, the sweeter the honey gets for everyone.
Free and cooperative. This is a passion experiment for us. We never sell or share your data.
