The Lottery Logix Alternative Built by a Professional Gambler
A straight Savvy Scratch vs Lottery Logix comparison. Both rate scratch-off games from real lottery data, but one tries to do a little of everything and the other does one thing the way a pro would. Here is which one fits how you actually play.
Free to start. No card required. 21 states covered.
Lottery Logix is a real, broad app. It rates scratch-offs across more states than we cover and bundles in Powerball and Mega Millions number generators on top. Savvy Scratch goes the other way: scratch-offs only, built on the current-versus-initial odds math a professional advantage player would actually trust, with a permanent free tier and one price for every state. If you want a do-everything lottery app, Lottery Logix has more buttons. If you want the one number that tells you whether a scratch-off is worth buying, that is what we built.

What Lottery Logix does well
Lottery Logix has been around since about 2020 and it is genuinely ambitious. On the scratch-off side it rates games across 23 states and Washington DC, sorting each one into Excellent, Good, Poor, or No-Jackpot picks using public lottery data — location, game statistics, remaining jackpots, overall remaining prizes, price points, and return on investment. It also maps recent winning locations near you and lets you filter by best odds, jackpot chances, bulk-buying value, and tickets to avoid. On top of all that it bundles number generators for Powerball, Mega Millions, and Pick 3/4. If you want one app that touches every lottery game and you like a feature-rich toolkit, Lottery Logix gives you a lot to tap through.
State coverage is close — so let it come down to fit
We will be straight with you: on raw scratch-off state count, Lottery Logix is slightly broader. It lists 23 states plus Washington DC, and Savvy Scratch covers 21. So if your state is the only thing that matters, check both — there is a real chance Lottery Logix reaches a state we have not added yet, and a real chance we cover one it does not. The bigger point is that the two lists overlap heavily. Sixteen of our 21 states are also covered by Lottery Logix (marked in gold below), so in most places the question is not whether you can get the data, but how good the read is once you have it.
Gold = also covered by Lottery Logix for scratch-offs.

A real edge versus a lucky feeling
Fifteen years of advantage play taught me one hard line: there is a difference between a real edge and a story that feels like one. Card counting works because the count actually changes the math. A lucky seat, a hot dealer, a number that is “due” — those feel powerful and change nothing. Lottery Logix mixes both kinds of things into one app. Its scratch-off ratings are built on real data and are genuinely useful. But it also generates Powerball and Mega Millions picks and maps recent winning locations — and a random draw cannot be predicted, and last week's winning store tells you nothing about the ticket in your hand today.
Savvy Scratch only does the part that is real. We track how a game's odds have shifted from the day it launched to right now, because the prizes still sitting in the unsold tickets are the only thing you can actually act on. If you want the full breakdown of how that current-versus-initial-odds math works, it is in the complete guide to lottery analysis.

Create a free accountOne price for every state, not one charge per state
This is where the two apps actually split on cost. Lottery Logix gives you a 7-day free trial, then its scratch-off access is sold as a scratchers pack listed at about $4.99 per state. Follow games in one state and that is fine; follow them in three and the math starts working against you. Savvy Scratch is $5/month or $50/year, and that single price covers every state we support, with a 30-day worry-free guarantee. Just as important, our free tier is permanent, not a trial that flips to a charge. Anyone can sign up, pick a state, and use the Bad and New tabs forever without paying. The Bad tab alone tells you which games to walk past, which is half the battle. The paid subscription unlocks the Good and Neutral tabs, where the live games sit.
Do you want every lottery feature, or the one that pays?
At a poker table, the players losing money are usually the ones drowning in information. They track every stat, second-guess every read, and still make the wrong call because they never decided which numbers actually matter. A winning player is not tracking forty data points. They are tracking the two or three reads that change the decision in front of them. That is the split between these two tools. Lottery Logix is a Swiss-army app — scratch-offs, draw-number generators, frequency calculators, winning-location maps. Savvy Scratch makes one call and shows its work, because the only question that matters at the counter is whether the top prizes you would be excited to win are still in the unsold tickets. If they are, the game is worth playing. If they are not, you walk.
I broke down why the jackpot tier is the only number worth chasing in the beginner's guide to jackpot hunting. Neither approach is wrong. They serve different players.
Which one should you use?
Pick Lottery Logix if
You want one app for everything — scratch-offs plus Powerball and Mega Millions number picks and winning-location maps — your state is one it covers but we do not yet, and you only follow games in a single state so the per-state pack price stays low. It is an ambitious, feature-packed app and plenty of players enjoy it.
Pick Savvy Scratch if
You want scratch-offs done right rather than a little of everything, you follow games in more than one state and want a single price that covers them all, or you want to start completely free and only pay once you have seen the live data work. It is also the only one of the two built by someone who made a living as an advantage player rather than a company analyzing the games from the outside.
Most players buy blind not because they are lazy, but because nobody handed them the data in a form they could use in the ten seconds they have at the counter, which is the quiet mistake that costs regular players the most.
