How Overtime.io expanded their offering x10 with OpticOdds

Challenge

"As a decentralized and permissionless sportsbook, Overtime faces a unique set of challenges. Our blockchain-based architecture introduces unavoidable onchain latency, and the anonymous nature of web3 attracts highly skilled bettors who are quick to exploit inefficiencies. This makes real-time, accurate, and robust data absolutely essential to maintain market integrity and user trust.In our early days, we cycled through multiple data providers, often needing to stitch together different feeds across sports just to build a functional offering. This fragmented setup created significant operational overhead and ultimately held us back from scaling effectively."

Solution

"In preparation for the launch of Overtime V2 in 2024, we discovered OpticOdds. Their clear integration documentation, flexible API design, and genuinely helpful team immediately stood out. After speaking with their team and testing the integration, it was clear they understood the demands of modern sportsbooks, especially one operating onchain like ours. OpticOdds offered comprehensive coverage across sports, reliable uptime, and a level of responsiveness we hadn’t experienced with other vendors. Their plug-and-play infrastructure allowed us to consolidate our data stack and move faster than ever before."

Impact

"Since integrating with OpticOdds, we’ve scaled our market offering by over 10x, unlocking new leagues, player props, and live markets, all without compromising performance. This expansion has been matched by strong user growth and a significant increase in betting volume across the board.The OpticOdds team continues to ship new features, improve stability, and support our edge cases. They’ve become a true partner in our mission to build the world’s leading decentralized sportsbook, and we couldn’t be happier with the relationship."
