Getting started with LotAssist

LotAssist brings together, in one place, what most players today do scattered across tools: a spreadsheet to track spending, a results site in another tab, tickets jotted on paper or in a phone's notes app. Here you can follow draws, build a ticket within a budget, check what you've already played, and see what past numbers actually show.

This article works as a map: each section points to a tool and explains when it helps.

Results and history

The results pages carry every draw already held, with the numbers, the prize breakdown and any rollover. Everything else on the platform builds on that — the analysis reads the same history.

• Powerball results, Mega Millions, and the Brazilian Caixa lotteries such as Mega-Sena.
• The full history view inside the app, with filters by period.

Number statistics

Every number has its own page: how many times it's been drawn, how many draws it's been missing, and which other numbers it tends to come out with. Start from the overview of a lottery and click through any number.

Inside the app, the number statistics page shows the same data as charts, with period-to-period comparison.

The game generator

The generator is the core of the platform, and its logic flips the usual question: instead of "how many tickets do you want," it asks how much you want to spend, then builds the set that fits that budget. The math already accounts for the real price of each ticket, including ones with more numbers than the minimum.

On top of that budget you apply whatever you like: fixed numbers, excluded numbers, a sum range, an odd/even ratio, a cap on consecutive runs, distribution across the play slip. There are also generation modes, which change where the numbers come from: pure chance, historical frequency, or a ranking of the combinations that have paid out most often.

If you already have pools saved to your account, there's one more option: diversifying against them. With "Avoid the games in my saved tickets" turned on, no new ticket repeats one you've already stored or fits entirely inside one, and among several candidates the generator picks the one sharing the fewest numbers with your whole wallet. At the end, the screen shows the average overlap with your pools next to the overlap purely random tickets would have. That comparison matters because five shared numbers is a big coincidence in Mega-Sena, but close to expected in Lotofácil.

The ticket checker

After each draw, the checker matches your games against the official result and shows hits and prizes by tier. It works both for games generated here and for ones you typed in or imported from a spreadsheet.

The pool comparator

When someone offers you a share in a pool for a draw you already play, what matters isn't whether that pool is good on its own — it's what it changes about what you already have. The pool comparator exists for that math: you type in or import the offered pool's tickets, and it measures how much of the coverage is genuinely new, how many tickets merely repeat yours, how much the odds of each tier grow, and, if you enter the price and number of shares, whether what's being charged matches what those tickets are worth. The verdict runs from "not worth it" to "very much worth it," with the reasoning laid out beside it.

It needs an account, since the comparison runs against your own saved pools. The historical comparison, which sweeps past draws to show where that pool would have made a difference, is a Premium feature; the rest of the analysis comes free with any account.

Comparing lotteries

The comparison page puts the games side by side: ticket cost, odds of the top prize, odds of winning anything at all, and how much comes back, on average, per unit wagered. It's the most honest answer the platform has for "which one should I play?"

Myths

The myth lab takes the most common beliefs — overdue numbers, hot numbers, playing birthdays, repeats from the last draw — and tests each one against the real history. The verdict is computed over draws that actually happened, not anyone's opinion.

One caveat that covers every tool

Nothing here raises the odds of a ticket being drawn. Lotteries are random before the analysis and stay random after it. What the platform does is something else: it organizes spending, avoids redundant tickets, shows what the history actually contains, and helps you decide with information instead of a hunch.

Only ever stake what you can afford to lose. If playing stops being fun at any point, the footer of every page links to the player support service for your country.
