Capabilities

Every market, every line, every second

Our DraftKings scraper handles the complexities of real-time sports data: WebSocket interception, React state hydration, and high-frequency diffing to capture line movements before the market closes.

Real-Time Odds Extraction

Capture moneylines, spreads, and totals across all major sports with sub-minute latency. Track line movement as sharp money enters the market.

Comprehensive DFS Salaries

Extract player pools, salaries, positions, and injury designations for all Daily Fantasy Sports slates.

Player Prop Markets

Monitor passing yards, strikeouts, points, and niche prop bets with over/under odds and implied probabilities.

Futures & Outrights

Track championship odds, MVP races, and season win totals as they shift week over week.

Live In-Game Betting

Intercept WebSocket streams to capture volatile in-play odds and market suspensions in real time.

Contest Structures

Extract entry fees, prize pools, payout structures, and overlay indicators for DFS contests.

Multi-State Normalisation

DraftKings offers different lines per state. We route requests through state-specific residential proxies to capture localised markets.

High-Frequency Diffing

Only receive records when lines move. Our hash-based diffing reduces downstream compute load by filtering out static markets.

Historical Time-Series

Build predictive models with timestamped historical odds and line movement data logged per run.

Under the hood

How our DraftKings pipeline handles the hard parts

Sportsbooks invest heavily in scraping detection and data obfuscation. Here is how we maintain reliable data feeds for algorithmic trading and analytics.

Anti-bot layer
State-specific residential proxy routing

DraftKings restricts access based on geolocation and flags data-center IPs. Our crawlers use state-specific residential ISP proxies with realistic browser fingerprints to access localised betting markets without triggering blocks.

WebSocket interception
Capturing live line movement

DraftKings pushes live odds via WebSockets rather than HTTP requests. We intercept and decode these WebSocket frames in real time, capturing line movements and market suspensions instantly.

React state hydration
Extracting initial payload data

Instead of parsing complex DOM structures, we intercept the React hydration payloads embedded in the page source. This provides clean, structured JSON data directly from DraftKings' backend APIs.

Change detection
Microsecond diffing for high-frequency updates

Sports odds change rapidly. We maintain an in-memory hash index of all current markets. Subsequent runs only push diffs, reducing latency and downstream processing load.

Monitoring & alerting
SLA-backed pipeline health

Every run emits structured logs to our observability stack. We alert on missing markets, stale odds, and schema drift, ensuring your trading algorithms always have fresh data.

Applications

Who uses DraftKings data and how

Teams across industries use draftkings.com data to build competitive products and smarter operations.

01
Arbitrage & Line Shopping

Algorithmic traders compare DraftKings odds against other sportsbooks to identify arbitrage opportunities and positive expected value (EV) bets.

02
DFS Lineup Optimisation

Fantasy sports syndicates ingest player salaries and injury updates to run mixed-integer linear programming models for optimal lineup construction.

03
Algorithmic Trading

Quantitative funds feed real-time line movement and prop bet data into machine learning models to predict market inefficiencies.

04
Risk Management

Competing sportsbooks monitor DraftKings' odds and market suspensions to adjust their own lines and manage exposure.

05
Market Research

Sports analytics firms track betting volume indicators and line shifts to understand public sentiment and sharp money movement.

06
Sports Analytics

Media companies and analysts use historical odds and prop lines to enrich sports broadcasts and written content.

Why DataFlirt

"DraftKings generates millions of pricing updates daily across sportsbooks and DFS markets. None of it is queryable unless you build the infrastructure to capture it."

Most teams underestimate the compute required for sports data. Reliable DraftKings extraction requires WebSocket interception, React state hydration, sub-minute proxy rotation, and microsecond anomaly monitoring. DataFlirt absorbs that complexity so your quants can focus on the models, not the infrastructure.

Common questions.

About draftkings.com scraping, legality, and pipeline operations.

Ask us directly →
Is scraping DraftKings legal?

Scraping publicly available odds and DFS salaries is generally permissible under US law, provided it does not circumvent authentication or violate terms of service in a disruptive manner. DataFlirt targets only public data and employs rate-limiting to ensure no degradation of DraftKings' services. Clients should consult legal counsel for specific trading use cases.

How fast can you deliver live odds?

For live in-game markets, our WebSocket interceptors can push updates via Webhook within milliseconds of the line changing on DraftKings' frontend. For pre-match markets, we typically configure sub-minute polling intervals.

Do you support state-specific betting lines?

Yes. DraftKings offers different odds and markets depending on the state. We route requests through state-specific residential proxies (e.g., New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania) to capture the exact lines available in that jurisdiction.

Can you extract DFS contest data?

Yes. We extract entry fees, total prize pools, max entries, current entries, and payout structures for all public DFS contests across all sports.

How do you handle DraftKings' bot protection?

DraftKings uses sophisticated anti-bot measures including Datadome. We bypass this using high-quality residential ISP proxies, realistic browser fingerprints via Playwright, and solving challenges via CapSolver when necessary.

Do you provide historical odds data?

We begin logging historical data from the moment your pipeline is commissioned. Every line movement is timestamped and stored, allowing you to build a comprehensive time-series database for backtesting models.

What is the minimum viable engagement?

Our minimum engagement typically starts with a defined set of sports or leagues (e.g., NFL and NBA moneylines and spreads). Pricing scales based on the number of markets tracked and the update frequency required.
