Module 01 — Overview

pinnodds vs SportsGameOdds

SportsGameOdds covers the major US sportsbooks — FanDuel, DraftKings, BetMGM, Caesars, ESPN BET and others — across NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL and college. If you are building a US-facing product that shows several books side by side, that breadth is the point, and it is breadth we do not have.

Two things matter if what you actually want is the Pinnacle line. First, Pinnacle is not among the bookmakers listed on their pricing page. Second, their free tier updates on a 10-minute frequency — fine for a scoreboard, not for anything that reacts to a price move.

pinnodds does one book properly: Pinnacle, live and prematch, pushed in roughly 30–150 ms with drop detection built in. Different products, genuinely different jobs.

Module 03 — Straight answer

When SportsGameOdds is the better choice

Pick SportsGameOdds if you need several US books in one call, player props across those books, or a consensus line. That is what they are built for and we do not compete with it — we carry one book.

Pick pinnodds if you want the Pinnacle line specifically, delivered as it changes rather than when you next ask, with dropping-odds detection already done for you. Start on the free key and measure it against whatever you are using now — that is a faster answer than any comparison table, including this one.

Frequently asked questions

Does SportsGameOdds include Pinnacle?
Pinnacle is not among the bookmakers listed on their pricing page, which names FanDuel, DraftKings, BetMGM, Caesars, ESPN BET, Bovada, Unibet, PointsBet and William Hill. If the Pinnacle line is what you are after, that matters.
How fresh is their free tier?
Their free Amateur tier states a 10 minute update frequency, with 2.5k objects per month and 10 requests per minute. pinnodds' free tier is real time — the limit is request rate, not data age.
Which is better for a betting bot?
If the bot reacts to Pinnacle price moves, push delivery in 30-150 ms is the requirement and a 10-minute or polled feed cannot serve it. If the bot compares many US books, breadth wins and they cover far more books than we do.
Can I use both?
Yes, and it is a sensible split: their aggregate for the soft-book prices you want to bet into, pinnodds for the sharp Pinnacle reference that tells you whether the price is any good.
