Unabated's free API required qualifying deeplink traffic and ran 15 seconds behind on 15 Nov 2026; real time started at $799 a month for five leagues, with no commercial use. Alternatives: SharpAPI (+EV from $229), TheRundown (real time from $399) and novigapi.com (Novig fair prices, live from $49). (Source: [Unabated: Odds API overview](https://unabated.com/odds-api))

Unabated's line is a respected fair reference. The alternatives trade some of that model for lower prices or commercial-use terms.
