MOTIONLOCK
What is MOTIONLOCK?
MOTIONLOCK is Take the Under's proprietary scoring engine. It evaluates player props across five categories — recent performance, season averages, opponent context, line movement, and game situation — and produces a confidence score between 0 and 100 for every pick.
Does MOTIONLOCK only pick unders?
No. The engine scores both overs and unders and takes whichever side the data supports.
How confident does a pick need to be to make the slip?
Picks below 60% confidence are discarded. The daily slips are built from what clears that threshold.
Does MOTIONLOCK cover all six sports equally?
The same scoring framework runs across NBA, NHL, MLB, NFL, MMA, and WNBA. Some sport-specific inputs vary — NHL uses time on ice, MMA uses significant strikes — but the confidence scoring structure is the same.
How to Use the Site
Where do I find today's picks?
Picks are at taketheunder.app/app, organized by sport and slip tier. Each pick shows the confidence score, the prop line, and the reasoning behind it.
When do picks post?
Roughly 90 minutes before the first game of the day. Late-slate picks post as soon as props are available and scored.
What is a slip?
A slip is a bundled set of picks. Regulars are 4-pick slips built from the day's highest-confidence props. Early Slate posts before the first game and covers the most time-sensitive picks of the day.
Do I need an account to see picks?
The track record, schedules, and injury reports are free without an account. Full pick access requires an All-Star Access subscription.

Track Record and Grading
How are picks graded?
Every pick is graded nightly against official box scores. A hit means the actual stat cleared the line in the pick direction. A miss means it didn't. A push means it landed exactly on the line.
Is the track record verified?
Every pick is timestamped and logged before the game starts. Nothing is added or removed after the fact.
Can I see results broken down by sport?
Yes. The track record page breaks results down by sport, slip tier, and date range.
What counts as a void?
A pick is voided if the game is cancelled, postponed, or the player doesn't take the field. Voids are excluded from win rate calculations.
