For sportsbooks and developers
ALT Sports Data is general enough to support multiple entry points, but most readers fall into one of these paths:
- Sportsbooks: start with For Sportsbooks to understand league coverage and integration direction
- Developers: start with Getting Started or go directly to the API Reference
Credential model
ALT Sports Data gives you the credential directly. Once you have it, you can:
- test routes inside the interactive docs
- call the public API directly
- use the same credential in the SDKs
- use the same credential in MCP workflows
See Credentials and Testing for the full flow.
Example data you can work with
- Formula 1
- World Surf League
- BKFC
- NLL
- Jai Alai
- DGPT
These docs should feel like ALT Sports Data docs from the first request, so examples and walkthroughs focus on the leagues and sports that make the platform distinct.
