Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about how the lab works, what’s included in each plan, and how features like AI, Power Picks, and Smart Picks fit together.
What is Fantasy 5 Lab Pro?
Fantasy 5 Lab Pro is a strategy workspace for the Georgia Fantasy 5 lottery. It helps you analyze historical draws, explore number stats, generate diversified ticket sets, and backtest your approach against past results.
It does not sell lottery tickets and it does not guarantee outcomes. Lottery draws remain random.
Is this affiliated with the Georgia Lottery?
No. Fantasy 5 Lab Pro is an independent analysis tool built for players who want structured ways to explore historical patterns and ticket construction heuristics.
How does the Lab ticket generator work?
The Lab generator builds tickets locally in your browser using your selected constraints (sum band, odd/even mix, low/high mix, hot/cold counts, skip window, and other heuristics).
It also tries to diversify tickets so you don’t end up with the same few numbers dominating every ticket.
What are “filters” and what does “Enforce filters” mean?
Filters are the rules you set to shape tickets (for example: allowed sum range, allowed odd counts, minimum/maximum hot numbers, and more).
When Enforce filters is enabled for your plan, the generator must satisfy those rules while constructing tickets — instead of only using them as soft preferences.
What are AI tickets and how are they different from Lab tickets?
AI tickets are generated using an AI model (Gemini) with your current configuration and recent-history context. They’re meant to provide alternative candidate tickets and perspectives on pairings, streaks, and constraints.
Lab tickets are generated deterministically on-device. Many users generate Lab tickets first, then use AI for a second opinion and then compare or rank the combined pool.
How many AI generations can I run per day?
AI generation is available on the Pro plan.
Pro includes up to 5 AI runs per day, and each run can request up to 30 tickets.
AI ranking (scoring your candidates) is Pro-gated, but it does not consume your daily AI run allowance.
What counts as an “AI run”?
An AI run is a call to an AI generation endpoint (for example, generating AI tickets or generating AI Power Picks).
If you hit your daily limit, you can still use Lab generation and other local analysis tools, and you can try AI again the next day.
What are Power Picks?
Power Picks are a focused batch of tickets built from your current Lab + AI pools, emphasizing coverage across “anchor zones” (groups of numbers based on frequency tiers) and aiming for diversity.
You can generate Power Picks locally, and Pro can optionally request AI Power Picks for another angle.
What are Smart Picks (BETA)?
Smart Picks (BETA) is a Pro-only feature that builds a new ticket batch from samples you already created (Lab tickets, AI tickets, and Power Picks).
Smart Picks runs locally in your browser — no external AI calls are made for Smart Picks itself.
It’s marked BETA while we harden it with more testing and real-world feedback.
Why do some controls say “locked” or “upgrade to unlock”?
Some features require a paid plan (Beginner or Pro), and some are Pro-only. The app checks your subscription entitlements and enables or disables controls accordingly.
Visit the Pricing page to compare plans and upgrade.
Do you auto-load historical draws?
Yes, depending on your plan. Plans can include automatic loading of recent history or the full draw history to help stats and tuning work immediately on page load.
You can also paste/import draws manually inside the lab.
Where does the draw data come from?
The app synchronizes Georgia Fantasy 5 draw results into its dataset from public sources (including the Georgia Lottery results API) and uses that history to compute stats like hit counts and skip streaks.
If you notice a mismatch, use your pasted draw text as the source of truth for your session and contact support.
Can I save ticket sets and come back later?
Yes. When you’re signed in, you can save generated ticket sets, custom tickets, and filters to your account and review them later in My Lab.
Some actions (like saving) may require an additional verification step to prevent abuse.
Can I download my tickets as a CSV?
CSV export is available on paid plans (Beginner and Pro). Exports include your ticket rows and optional metadata like filter settings so you can keep a record of what generated the set.
Why do you use reCAPTCHA Enterprise?
We use Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise to reduce automated abuse and protect sensitive actions (for example, account-related actions and saving).
Google may collect device and behavioral signals as part of reCAPTCHA. For details, see Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms, and our Privacy Notice.
Does Fantasy 5 Lab Pro increase my odds of winning?
No strategy can change the true odds of a random draw. The lab is designed to help you explore structured constraints, reduce accidental duplicates, and compare configurations with simulations — but outcomes are never guaranteed.
