Use cases

What developers build with SockOdds, and the parts of the API each one uses.

• Odds API for AI Agents and LLM Tools: Give an AI agent bookmaker odds through plain HTTP tool calls, with an OpenAPI file, llms.txt and a Markdown twin of every page.
• Odds API for Arbitrage Betting: Scan every bookmaker's decimal price for the same market in one request and check whether the best prices add up to less than 100%.
• Odds API for Bet Tracking and Settlement: Store the outcome id and price at bet time, then settle from results graded from official sources: won, lost, void, dead heat, half won or half lost.
• Historical Odds Data API: Every recorded price change, opening and closing prices, and results graded from official sources, for backtesting and line movement on Pro.
• Live and In-Play Betting Odds API: Event status and the latest bookmaker prices, polled or streamed over a WebSocket on Pro. Pre-match first, not a low-latency trading feed.
• Odds API for Betting Alert Bots: Build a Discord or Telegram odds alert bot: poll every bookmaker's prices, diff on shared outcome ids and post the moves.
• Odds Comparison and Line Shopping API: Compare every bookmaker's decimal price for the same market in one request, with shared outcome ids and an observed time on every quote.
• Odds API for Positive EV Betting: Compare each bookmaker's decimal price with a fair price you build from an exchange or sharp bookmaker, all from one request per game.
• Odds API for Prediction Market Arbitrage: Compare Kalshi and Polymarket prices with sportsbook odds in one response: same shape, decimal prices and shared outcome ids.
• Sports Betting Odds API for Apps: Games, every bookmaker's decimal prices and graded results in one REST API, with readable keys, an OpenAPI file and a free Developer key.
• Odds Data API for Sports Betting Models and Backtesting: Recorded price history, opening and closing prices, and results graded from official sources, joined by shared ids for training models.
