SportsDataIO alternative for live Pinnacle odds
SportsDataIO's self-serve Discovery Lab Odds plan costs $99/mo (≈ €88.67), but its data is delayed by one day and licensed for personal use; live commercial odds need a sales agreement. If you need Pinnacle odds in real time on a published monthly price, PinnFeed Builder streams live and prematch odds over a WebSocket for €99/mo (VAT incl.). If you need US league stats, play-by-play and fantasy data alongside odds, SportsDataIO is the broader product.
SportsDataIO facts are from its developer page, odds API page and Discovery Lab plans, read on 9 November 2026. Euro figures use the ECB rate of 6 November 2026 (1 USD = €0.89566).
