Sportsbook lines across books. Asked beside the web search when a question needs it, and served first with the time it was read.

SportsGrounder’s key

How it works

You search as usual, over HTTP or MCP, and Grounder searches the web.
For a question about right now that The Odds API can answer, Grounder also asks The Odds API, beside the web search.
The answer from The Odds API is served first, with the time it was read, and routing.live_calls lists it.

Grounder holds a key for The Odds API and reads it with that.

Ask the way you would ask any search. Grounder asks The Odds API when the question needs what the source holds.
