buildkit-ai Betting Odds Tracker
A real-time odds tracking tool that monitors line movements across multiple sportsbooks for NBA, MLB, and Soccer. Designed to help bettors identify value, track sharp money, and compare odds before placing wagers.
What It Does
- Fetches odds from multiple US sportsbooks via The Odds API
- Tracks line movement over time by storing snapshots locally
- Calculates opening line, current line, line delta, and consensus
- Identifies reverse line movement (potential sharp money indicator)
- Correlates live game scores with odds for in-game context
- Supports moneyline (h2h), point spreads, and totals (over/under)
