Sportradar Announces Automated Odds Recalculation Tool, Alpha Odds, Boosted Client Profits

Sportradar’s Alpha Odds, its automated odds recalculation tool which allows operators to generate bespoke betting prices in line with their risk exposure and liabilities, delivered an average profit increase of 10% for clients in 2023, compared to the performance of its conventional odds product.

Leveraging Sportradar’s artificial intelligence capabilities, the pricing models within Alpha Odds more accurately predict the probability of a game event taking place, enabling operators to manage their risk more effectively. When combined with real-time and predicted liquidity, Alpha Odds allows operators to maximize trading efficiency in line with their trading strategies.

An analysis of 17 million betting tickets across 60 of Sportradar’s operator clients demonstrated the effectiveness of the artificial intelligence models within the odds recalculation service. Compared to the performance of the company’s conventional odds product, operators utilizing the Alpha Odds solution were able to adjust their betting prices in ‘real-time’ to stabilize their trading operations and improve trading efficiency by 11%.

The financial reconciliation aspect of Alpha Odds has recently been independently certified by auditors PwC, with the solution achieving the International Standard in Assurance Engagement (ISAE) 3402 Type 1 for matching and client invoicing calculation systems. The ISAE 3402 Type 1 certification recognizes the power of Sportradar’s computational practices and provides clients with visibility of key processes that are driven by the performance of the Alpha Odds solution.

The independent ISAE certification validates the performance of Alpha Odds and provides confidence to clients that the associated financial aspects of the solution are transparent and accurate.”
