Why SportLive

Automation scales, and it scales mistakes too.

Most sportsbooks today run heavily automated. That is exactly where the most expensive problems hide: pricing anomalies, rule inconsistencies, limit leaks, timing effects and process gaps that no dashboard shows you.

We don't look for symptoms. We find leaks. We analyse your sportsbook down to the last detail and back every finding with concrete €-impact, so your teams don't debate, they fix.

“Hold isn't luck. Hold is a system.”

The Method

SportLive Hold Leak Audit

A deep audit of your sportsbook: from odds logic, overround structures and existing odds-feed analysis, through rules, player processes and limits, to automation, settlement and reporting.

01

Hold Leak Audit

Full analysis of odds logic, overround, odds feeds, rules, player and limit processes. Output: a leak map.

02

Optimization Sprint

In agreement with you, we close the biggest leaks: quick fixes first, then structural ones. We measure how much the margin moved.

03

Margin Monitoring

Continuous checks and alerts. Catch regressions early, close new leaks fast.

IP Framework

Margin Integrity System

Guardrails: structured checks that stop closed leaks from coming back.

What you get from the audit
Leak map: where and how margin is lost
Prioritised fix list: sorted by €-impact
Quick-win plan: leaks you can close today
Guardrails: protection against regression
How we start

What the first step looks like

1

Intro call

30 minutes

You describe where things feel off. We tell you where we would look first. No obligation, no preparation needed on your side.

2

Margin Leak Check

5–10 working days

We review a sample of your data and come back with a list of findings, ranked by what they actually cost you.

3

Your call

No obligation

You close the leaks yourself using our list, or we take it on. Either way you know where it leaks and what it is worth.

What we take on for you

If you're going to do it, do it right
Odds and risk management
You want to outsource odds and risk management. We take it over, fully and professionally.
Player profiling and segmentation
We profile and segment players, spot harmful patterns and set limits according to real risk.
Choosing a data feed
You're choosing a data feed and need a competent assessment and help picking the right provider.
Integration into your software
You need project management for integrating odds, risk-management and player-limit tools into your software.
Consulting for your IT team
Your developers build it themselves but need someone who knows sportsbooks. We review architecture, specifications and solutions.
