About SonicBet
Behind the prices
Who writes SonicBet and where the numbers on every page come from.
What we file
Match bulletins on single fixtures and their prices, which sit on the home page, plus longer lines on strategy and the business of betting, shelved by market.
Where the numbers come from
- Fixtures
- TheSportsDB, from its free schedule feed.
- Prices
- ESPN's public scoreboard, as posted by the book it lists.
- Finals
- ESPN's public scoreboard, after the late pull.
Prices are reported as posted. When a feed is late, the page says so. Times are in UTC.
Who writes the lines
One byline: SonicBet Odds Bulletin. That is the desk, not a person. No roster of tipsters sits behind it, and we do not invent one.
The lines are drafted by AI models and checked by code. A line that closes with a “Price and data sources” list started from a research pack built for it. Primary sources come first: regulator pages, bookmaker terms, official statistics. Reputable press fills in. Every number and date in the line is checked against that pack before it is filed, and each source is linked where it is used.
The match bulletins, and older lines with no source list, were drafted by models from the feeds above or from a topic list, then checked for style and structure, not for sourcing. Read them as background.
How bookmakers get scored
- Board depthHow much there is to bet on. A full sportsbook with in-play scores highest, a lottery courier lowest.
- Opening offerThe welcome deal as the operator lists it, weighed against the terms attached to it.
- CashoutThe ways to pay in and out, and what the operator's own listing says about withdrawals.
- Licence trailWho licenses the book and how long it has traded.
The Bolt score is the plain average of the 4, trimmed to 2 decimals.
