Sportsbook Object Schema

Field	Type	Description
`id`	string	Unique identifier (use in API filters)
`name`	string	Internal name (same as `id`)
`display_name`	string	Human-readable name
`has_live_odds`	boolean	Supports live/in-play odds
`has_player_props`	boolean	Supports player prop markets
`regions`	string[]	Available regions: `US`, `UK`, `EU`, `AU`, `GLOBAL`
`is_sharp`	boolean	Whether the book is considered a sharp/efficient market
`status`	string	`active` or `inactive`
`event_count`	integer	Number of events currently available
`last_update`	string	ISO 8601 timestamp of last data update
`requires_tier`	string \| null	Minimum tier required: `null` (free), `hobby`, `pro`, `sharp`

The event_count may be 0 and last_update may be null if a sportsbook is temporarily unavailable or experiencing data delays.

Book Access by Tier

The requires_tier field indicates the minimum subscription tier needed to access a sportsbook’s odds data through the API.

Tier	Books Available	Included Sportsbooks
Free	23	Kalshi, BetMGM, DraftKings, Bet365, and 19 more
Hobby	23	Same as Free
Pro	23	Same as Hobby
Sharp	26	All available sportsbooks
Enterprise	26	All available sportsbooks

Pinnacle, Circa Sports, Bookmaker, ProphetX, and Betfair require Sharp tier or higher. Pinnacle is a sharp book whose efficient lines are used as the reference for +EV calculations. Circa Sports is another known sharp book with deliberately tight lines and a focused prop menu. Requesting sharp book odds on Free, Hobby, or Pro tier will return a 403 tier_restricted error.

Understanding `requires_tier`

Value	Meaning

Polymarket and Kalshi are prediction market platforms. Unlike traditional sportsbooks, they use binary outcome contracts priced between $0 and $1. SharpAPI normalizes contract prices into standard odds formats (American, decimal, implied probability) so you can compare them directly with sportsbook odds. Kalshi is CFTC-regulated.

Sharp vs Soft Books

Sharp Books

Lower vig (juice) — tighter margins mean better odds accuracy
Efficient lines — used as the reference for +EV and fair value calculations
Not available in all regions — Pinnacle is not licensed in the US
Examples: Pinnacle, Circa Sports, Bookmaker

Soft Books

Higher vig — wider margins create more room for +EV opportunities
More promotions — bonuses, boosts, and free bets
Slower line movement — may lag behind sharp market moves
Where value is found — the gap between soft book odds and sharp reference creates +EV
Examples: DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars

Sharp books like Pinnacle set efficient lines quickly. Soft books often lag behind, creating windows where their odds offer positive expected value compared to the sharp reference. This is the foundation of +EV betting strategy.
