Verify Our Picks
Before every card we publish a SHA-256 hash of the model’s entire board — every bout it scored, not just the picks we sell. Afterwards we publish the secret salt and the board itself. Anyone can recombine them and confirm the hash matches what was posted beforehand.
Why hash the whole board?
A commitment covering only the published picks would prove very little — we could privately prepare several different slates and reveal whichever one happened to win. Committing to every scored bout leaves nothing to select from after the fact. The board includes bouts that did not clear the 68% bar, so a pick cannot be quietly added or dropped.
How to check it yourself
Download the reveal file for a card and run this. The output must equal the hash field, which was published before the fights.
curl -s https://thefightalgorithm.com/commitments/2026-08-01.json -o reveal.json

r = json.load(open('reveal.json'))
print(hashlib.sha256((r['salt'] + r['canonical']).encode()).hexdigest())
print(r['hash'])
