TellShots

Track record, not noise

Locked predictions · verified outcomes · reputation that compounds

A TellShot is a locked prediction with a public outcome.

Reputation beats the timeline. “The internet has no shortage of hot takes. TellShots has something rarer: a permanent record of whether they came true.”

Not a sportsbook — accuracy is the currency, and your calls stay on the record.

Why TellShots exists

What is TellShots?

Most platforms reward volume. TellShots rewards accuracy. You publish a locked prediction — claim, confidence level, timing, and resolution rules that are set before the outcome is known and can’t be quietly changed after. Others challenge or back your call in-thread. When reality settles the debate, the record updates automatically: no stealth edits, no “I meant something else”, and no betting slip — this is intellectual reputation, not gambling.

What makes TellShots different is that confidence is scored, not just direction. Saying you are 90% sure and being wrong hurts more than saying 55% — because calibration matters. Over time your profile builds a credibility stack you can actually point to: accuracy rate, calibration score, credibility points, domain badges, and leaderboard rank — all driven by resolved outcomes, not follower counts. Available on iOS, Android, and web. Read Terms, Privacy, and Cookies, then open the app or download below.

Everything in one place

Points, badge tiers, domain crowns, leaderboards, verification, notifications, web and native apps — the full credibility stack for predictions, not just a feed.

🔒

Locked predictions

Timestamped forecasts you can’t quietly edit after the fact — integrity by design.

🧵

Threads & counters

Challenge or refine claims in-thread. Resolution moments turn debate into recorded outcomes.

Verified outcomes

Clear rules and outcome verification so wins and misses stay on the record, not lost in the feed.

🏷️

Categories & discovery

Follow topics, leaders, and communities — global search ties together predictions, profiles, and tags.

📊

Credibility points

Points accrue from scored resolutions. Your profile shows totals, week-over-week movement, and calibration — how well your stated confidence matched reality — plus richer per-category stats as history grows.

🏅

Badges

Earned marks for milestones, domains, bold calls, and standout weeks — up front on your profile, not buried in settings.

🏆

Leaderboards

Global and category rankings from resolved calls — climb as your record proves out, not when a post goes viral.

🪪

Identity verification

Optional ID flow (Stripe checkout + hosted check) when you need a green verification mark on your profile, separate from whether any single prediction was right.

What your record looks like

Every prediction you lock builds a permanent profile — accuracy, calibration, points, and rank that update automatically as outcomes resolve.

Why TellShots?

One thing separates TellShots from every social feed: outcomes are verified, confidence is scored, and the record never disappears.

For forecasters

Lock in your call before the outcome is known. Your accuracy, calibration score, and credibility points build automatically — a track record that speaks for itself.

For readers

Stop guessing who actually knows their domain. Follow forecasters whose resolved record proves it — not their follower count.

For communities

Sports, markets, tech, politics — any domain where outcomes are verifiable. Turn debate into structured predictions with a clear resolution date, not a thread that gets forgotten.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers before you jump in.

Is TellShots gambling?

No. There’s no house odds or wallet — we focus on transparent, verifiable predictions and reputation.

What makes a prediction “locked”?

Once posted, the core claim and timing are fixed so results can’t be rewritten after the fact.

Can I try without an account?

Yes. You can continue as a guest from the sign-in page and upgrade when you want history synced.

How is this different from posting on social?

Likes and reposts fade; here the thread, timestamps, and scored outcomes stay visible — so “called it” becomes checkable history, not vibes.

How do I delete my TellShots account?

Follow the step-by-step process on our Account Deletion help page.
