Job Summary
About Us
Betstamp is the pricing intelligence layer for sports betting. We turn 200 sportsbooks exchanges and prediction markets into one sharp real-time view of fair value for the sportsbooks that price against it the bettors who bet with it and the traders who move on it.
We launched in 2020 built by professional bettors who needed sharper tools than the market offered and won at scale using them. That same pricing now runs as infrastructure across the industry. Because its still used to win real money it cant drift every model is backtested against years of closing lines and monitored continuously. What our customers run on is the pricing we stake our own edge on.
What We Build
One pricing engine delivered three ways:
- Sportsbooks and operators get fair-value pricing on player props alternates and ladders correlation-aware same-game-parlay pricing and a normalized real-time and historical feed that drops into their existing trading stack.
- Professional bettors get Betstamp PRO the professional odds screen True Line pricing across 200 books and real-time edge detection the moment a market is mispriced.
- Prediction market traders get the raw feed by API: sub-second data on every market we cover benchmarked against the full spread of books and exchanges.
200 sportsbooks and operators. 2500 markets. Sub-second refresh.
Why Betstamp
Were at the point where a product built for bettors has become infrastructure the industry runs on and prediction markets have opened a category that barely existed three years ago. Thats a rare window and were small enough that the people who join now shape what gets built rather than maintain what already exists.
The work has unusual clarity to it. Pricing is either sharp or it isnt and our customers would know within a day if it werent. Youll see the effect of your work quickly and youll be trusted with real scope early.
