SportsDataIO's Mission
To provide our customers with accurate and timely sports information, using real-time delivery technologies, empowering them to create unique experiences for fans across the globe.
Company Description
SportsDataIO was founded in 2008 as FantasyData LLC while offering NFL data feeds to the fantasy sports industry. Throughout our first decade, we expanded our coverage for all major North American sports and international soccer leagues, with a content offering that provides data, news, and images to a wide range of industries, including gaming, fantasy, publishing, broadcasting, leagues & teams.
More recently with the repeal of PASPA, we re-branded to SportsDataIO and replicated our previous mission of providing industry-specific fantasy feeds to the gaming industry by building an industry-leading odds product along with a suite of widgets to compliment our API as a delivery method.
Headquartered in Philadelphia, PA and with data operations in Phoenix, AZ, SportsDataIO currently services more than 200 clients ranging from startups to enterprise organizations.
