Quick answer: Different products that complement each other. PrizePicks is where you play — pick 2–6 athletes over/under their lines and get paid by the multiplier. Hitlay is what tells you which side of a DraftKings line to take: one binary HIT or LAY call per card, with a confidence tier, the edge in points, and auto-graded history on every call.

Is Hitlay part of PrizePicks?
No — separate products. PrizePicks is an operator where you place entries; Hitlay is a picks and analysis service that grades published player lines.
Does Hitlay pick PrizePicks lines?
Hitlay grades DraftKings player lines — the same over/under skill the pick’em games borrow from. Read any card as an independent second opinion on a line.
