SportsDataIO

SportsDataIO is a US sports data provider whose home page groups its work into product lines: Sports Data, Betting Data, Fantasy Data, Historical Data, SDX and ID Mapping, Widgets and Data Visualisation, News and Images, and Coded Content for AI sports content automation. Named APIs include the Core Sports Data API, Betting Odds API, Fantasy Sports API and News and Images API, plus a League API for depth and a Global Sports API for breadth.

The home page claims more than 1,500 competitions across 75 sports in 125 countries. Leagues named include the NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, NCAA Football and Basketball, NASCAR, WNBA and F1. The privacy policy lists offices in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, and Scottsdale, Arizona. No prices are published.

• Core Sports Data API. The core API is the base product for schedules, scores and statistics. The home page describes it by name and by league list, but does not show endpoint structure or sample fields, so detail has to come from the trial.
• Betting Odds API. A dedicated odds API sits beside the core feed, under the Betting Data line. The pages we read give no count of bookmakers or markets, which makes depth hard to judge without testing.
• Fantasy Sports API. Fantasy Data and a Fantasy Sports API are listed for platforms that need player-level information for contests. Customers named on the page include Sleeper, though the pages do not say which data it takes.
• League and Global APIs. A League API covers depth in supported leagues, and a Global Sports API covers broader coverage. The split lets a buyer choose between detailed US leagues and wider reach, at prices that are not shown.
• Historical data and ID mapping. Historical Data is its own line, and SDX and ID Mapping is listed for matching identifiers across sources. That helps teams that merge several suppliers, though the pages describe no mapping method.
• Widgets, news and images. Widgets and Data Visualisation, plus News and Images, let a publisher add displays and editorial assets without building them. Licensing terms for the images are not described on the home page.
• Coded Content. Coded Content is described as AI sports content automation. The home page gives only the label, so what it generates, and in which languages, is a question for the vendor.

• A US fantasy sports platform. Fantasy Data, historical data and coverage of the NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL fit a contest product. FanDuel, DraftKings and Sleeper appear as customer logos on the home page.
• A media site publishing sports content. News and Images, widgets and Coded Content suit a publisher that wants automated copy and visual components. The pages do not describe editorial controls, so review outputs before publishing.
• A betting product team. The Betting Odds API and ID Mapping help a team that combines odds with stats from other suppliers. Polymarket and Fox Sports are among the named logos, but the pages do not state which products they use.

The home page offers an API Free Trial through a button that links to a free-trial page. Commercial deployments go through contact with the company, since no pricing page is linked. The pages we read describe product lines rather than a setup procedure, so authentication, rate limits and endpoint documentation are not covered in what we saw.

A sensible approach is to open the trial, pick the league and data type you need, and check the sample responses against your schema. Ask early whether the trial includes odds and historical data, because those are separate product lines on the home page. The ID Mapping product may matter if you already use another data source.

SportsDataIO packages core sports data, betting odds, fantasy, news, images, historical data and AI content automation as separate product lines, claiming 1,500 competitions across 75 sports.

The home page shows no plans or prices and links no pricing page, so cost arrives only after contact. The privacy policy lists offices in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, and Scottsdale, Arizona, without naming a legal entity.

In our sports data apis ranking SportsDataIO stands at #11 of 13: it follows Sportbex and comes before Genius Sports. Challengers hold places 1 to 3 where a category has them; the number here is a place in the order, not a mark out of ten.

By headquarters, 1 of the 13 are established in North America, as SportsDataIO is in the United States.

Product lines include a Core Sports Data API, Betting Odds API, Fantasy Sports API and News and Images API, with a League API for depth and a Global Sports API for breadth.

Named leagues run from the NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL to NASCAR, F1 and the FIFA World Cup.

Logos on the home page include FanDuel, DraftKings and Fox Sports.

No security statement or certification appears there, and removal requests go by email.

In the catalogue: Quoted by contact; API trial offered; home page lists no plans.

The home page shows no plans or prices and links no pricing page. It invites visitors to contact the company for commercial deployments. An API Free Trial is offered through a button, and the pages we read do not state its length, limits or whether payment details are needed. Because the product lines are separate, it is reasonable to expect separate quotes for core data, odds, fantasy, historical data and content, but the pages do not confirm that. Ask whether the League and Global APIs are priced separately, how request volume is counted and whether historical data is a one-time or recurring charge. No currency appears on the pages we read.
