How we source data, verify information, and maintain independence
Data Sources & Methodology
All odds data on ScoreMon is sourced directly from sportsbook APIs and data feeds, refreshed every 15 minutes. We currently aggregate from 6 providers: Dafabet, Pinnacle, SBOBET, 1xBet, Betfair, and Polymarket. Each odds figure displayed is a real, currently available price — not a historical snapshot or estimate.
AI Predictions
Our prediction model uses a machine learning pipeline that analyzes odds movements, market consensus between sharp and recreational books, and historical edge data. We publish our complete track record including all losses. Predictions are generated algorithmically — no human editor selects which picks to highlight or hide.
Sharp vs Recreational Analysis
We classify sportsbooks as "sharp" (Pinnacle, SBOBET) or "recreational" (Dafabet, 1xBet) based on their known market-making practices. Sharp books set their own lines based on balanced action from professional bettors. Recreational books copy sharp lines with wider margins. When sharp and recreational lines diverge by more than 4%, we flag it as a market signal.
Affiliate Relationships
ScoreMon earns revenue through affiliate links to sportsbooks. This does not influence our odds data, predictions, or margin analysis. We display the same odds regardless of whether a sportsbook has an affiliate partnership with us. Books with no affiliate relationship (e.g., SBOBET) still appear in our comparisons because our editorial principle is complete data, not selective promotion.

Editorial Team
ScoreMon is operated by a small team of sports data engineers and quantitative analysts based in Asia-Pacific. Our editorial decisions are data-driven: we build algorithms that surface insights from raw odds data, rather than writing opinion-based predictions.
