From Raw Footage
to Plugged Leaks
SpotMyTell.AI turns your live stream into a timestamped, confidence-scored tell report. Here's the exact pipeline — and why it catches what no self-analysis or coaching session can.
The Science of Poker Tells Is Real. The Gap in Tools Is Massive.
40 years of research and professional observation have documented exactly how physical tells work. Zero tools have automated their detection — until now.
50+ Documented Tell Categories
Mike Caro's foundational research catalogued over 50 distinct tell categories from decades of live observation. FBI agent Joe Navarro (co-authored with Phil Hellmuth) extended this with rigorous body language science. This knowledge exists — but applying it to your own game has always required another person watching you.

Negreanu publicly documented the 4 tells he watches most: chip glances after seeing strong cards, reaching for chips before others act, aggressive chip splashing when weak, and verbal confusion under bluffing pressure. These aren't secrets — they're widely known. The question is whether you're exhibiting them.

The poker training market is worth $4B+. GTO Wizard, PioSolver, PokerSnowie — these tools have closed the strategy gap for serious players. A perfectly balanced range can still leak like a sieve physically. Solvers and HUDs address your betting lines. Nothing addresses your body. Until SpotMyTell.AI.

No manual tagging. No editing. No coaching session required. Submit your footage and the pipeline does what a team of analysts would take days to do.
Upload Your Stream
Share a Twitch VOD link, YouTube recording URL, or upload a private video file. Tell us your approximate seat position (e.g. "seat 3, left of dealer button") — that's all we need to lock onto you. No face photo required, no biometric database, no player profiling.
Any footage where you're visible at the table qualifies. Casino streams, home game recordings, footage captured from another player's stream — it all works. Minimum 45 minutes recommended for meaningful pattern detection; multi-session Deep Dive analysis is the gold standard.
AI Tracks 23 Behavioral Categories Per Hand
This is where SpotMyTell.AI does the work that no human analyst could replicate at scale. Our computer vision pipeline identifies you in the frame, segments the footage into individual hands from deal through showdown, and runs parallel behavioral tracking across 23 tell categories simultaneously.
For every hand decision — preflop, flop, turn, river — the AI generates a behavioral fingerprint. These fingerprints are clustered and correlated against hand strength outcomes (where showdown data is available) and street-specific action patterns. Behaviors that reliably co-occur with strong hands, bluffs, or specific stack depths are flagged as candidate tells. A confidence threshold filters out noise.
Your Confidential Tells Report — Timestamped and Actionable
Your report lands in your email and account dashboard. It's organized by tell reliability — the highest-confidence, most frequently occurring, most exploitable tells are listed first. Everything is cross-referenced back to specific hands in your footage, with timestamps you can jump to directly.
Every identified tell includes: a confidence score, the frequency of occurrence, which hand-strength situations it correlates with, timestamps of specific instances, and an actionable behavioral adjustment — a concrete change you can practice and apply before your next session.
23 Tell Categories Tracked Per Session
Not a generic body language scanner. Every category is calibrated for the specific behavioral dynamics of live poker — where adrenaline, stack pressure, and decision fatigue produce consistent, exploitable patterns.
Posture Lean
Forward/back position correlation with hand strength
Shoulder Position
Tension vs. relaxation signals across streets
Chip Handling
Riffling, touching, splashing patterns by situation
Bet Motion Style
Aggressive vs. deliberate bet execution tells
Eye Direction
Post-check gaze: board, chips, opponent, away
Gaze Duration
How long you hold eye contact before/after action
Breathing Rate
Visible breathing changes under pressure hands
Facial Micro-Expressions
Sub-second involuntary emotional signals
Hand Tremor
Bet motion steadiness — adrenaline vs. nerves
Arm Position
Crossed, open, or guarding during opponent action
Head Tilt
Angle changes correlated with strength/bluff
Verbal Response Timing
Instant vs. delayed verbal responses to pressure
Bet Timing
Snap, delayed, and tanked timing by hand strength
Card Peek Behavior
How often/long you check your hole cards
Stack Touch Pattern
Chip-touching before bets: value vs. bluff correlation
Chip Reach Timing
Pre-action chip reaches that telegraph decisions
Acting Patterns
Sigh, shrug, and false weakness tells
Reaction Timing
How fast you react to cards, bets, and boards
Body Orientation
Turning toward/away from pot during action
Lip Compression
Involuntary lip/jaw tension on strong hands
Neck/Throat Signals
Swallowing, pulse visibility under pressure
Cross-Session Patterns
Multi-session correlation to confirm true tells
Opponent Profiling
Pro/Elite: same analysis applied to your opponents
Before SpotMyTell.AI was a product, it was a controlled test. We analyzed Josh Thatcher (PLO Professor) — a professional PLO coach with a public Twitch stream — across 4 live cash game sessions at the Venetian and Texas Card House, without any prior knowledge of Josh's game.
The AI processed the footage and identified posture lean as Josh's #1 tell with 80% confidence across 3 separate sessions and 33 analyzed hands. The report also flagged 4 secondary tells. When we showed Josh the timestamped report, he confirmed the posture pattern immediately — he had no idea.
This is exactly what SpotMyTell.AI does. It finds the tells you don't know you have — with timestamps and confidence scores you can verify yourself.
