ALT Sports Data Completes $5 Million Funding Round Led by Game Changers Ventures
ALT Sports Data (ASD), the company building the operating system for sports leagues, announced the completion of a $5 million funding round led by Game Changers Ventures, with participation from Relay Ventures, Scrum Ventures, and other existing investors.
The funding will support continued investment in ASD’s League Operating System, a technology and services platform that combines official data, integrity and compliance, fan engagement, media distribution, and sports betting commercial activation into a single framework that scales alongside a league as it grows. Leagues can adopt the capabilities they need today and expand into additional products over time.
The business of operating a sports league has changed significantly over the past decade. Fan engagement now extends well beyond the live event and includes digital media, streaming, gaming, audience development, sponsorship integration, and direct consumer relationships. At the same time, leagues are expected to manage increasingly complex operational and commercial responsibilities while continuing to focus on competition, athletes, and fan experience.
ALT Sports Data was built to help leagues navigate that environment.
Today, the company works with more than 30 sports properties worldwide, including Formula 1, World Surf League (WSL), X Games, SuperMotocross World Championships, Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC), Professional Bull Riders (PBR), and a growing roster of emerging leagues. Through a combination of official data rights, technology, integrity services, media tools, and commercial distribution across gaming and streaming, ASD helps leagues create new revenue opportunities while maintaining control of their audience and intellectual property.
“Our business succeeds when our league partners succeed. We give leagues, regardless of size or stage, the infrastructure to grow their audiences, strengthen fan relationships, and build lasting commercial value around their sport. This financing allows us to expand those capabilities for current and future partners, and to keep investing behind the leagues we serve,” said Jake Cassaday, Chief Executive Officer of ALT Sports Data.
The company has experienced significant growth over the past eighteen months. In addition to becoming Formula 1’s Official Betting Data Supplier, ASD has expanded its portfolio of league partnerships, strengthened its global operator network and is introducing new products and services focused on fan engagement, regulated sports betting, integrity, media, and commercialization.
“What attracted us to ALT Sports Data is the company’s alignment with the leagues it serves. The team has built technology, services, and commercial capabilities that help sports organizations participate more effectively in today’s marketplace. As the demands on leagues continue to expand, we believe that approach becomes increasingly valuable,” said Roger Ehrenberg, Founder and Managing Partner of Game Changers Ventures.
The financing will support continued investment across product development, artificial intelligence, league onboarding, integrity and compliance solutions, sports betting and fan engagement products, and international expansion. The company also plans to continue growing its League Operating System and strategic services offerings as it works with leagues across a broad range of sports and competitive formats.

ALT Sports Data Announces a New Partnership with Caesars Entertainment
ALT Sports Data, a global leader in engagement solutions and official data for emerging sports, has announced a new partnership with Caesars Entertainment. The partnership powers a new, next-generation Formula 1 betting product for Caesars’ sports betting platforms, delivering one of the most advanced wagering experiences ever offered on motorsports across Caesars Sportsbook and William Hill digital and retail platforms.
Caesars Sportsbook and William Hill will leverage ALT Sports Data’s proprietary Formula 1 models, pricing, and real-time data infrastructure to offer a comprehensive and differentiated suite of betting markets. Built on sub-second latency data and hundreds of inputs per car, the platform enables dynamic pricing and continuous market recalibration throughout Formula 1 race weekends.
The product introduces a new category of Formula 1 betting, combining pre-race, in-race, and micro-market opportunities into a single, integrated experience. This includes live race micro markets, predictive driver performance modeling, and large-scale race simulations that generate thousands of possible race outcomes per event, allowing for deeper and more accurate pricing across every lap.
“Formula 1 is one of the most complex and data-rich environments in global sport, and that complexity creates an opportunity to completely redefine the betting experience. Our platform is designed to unlock that potential at scale, and partnering with Caesars allows us to bring a truly differentiated, always-on product to market that reflects the speed, strategy, and unpredictability of Formula 1,” said Joe Dunnigan, CEO and Founder of ALT Sports Data.
“Formula 1 continues to captivate fans with its intensity, strategy, and constant innovation. By integrating ALT Sports Data’s advanced modeling and real-time official data, we’re able to elevate our Formula 1 offering and give customers a more dynamic way to experience every moment of the race weekend,” said Eric Hession, President of Caesars Digital.
In addition to core markets such as race winner and podium finishes, Caesars and William Hill will offer an expanded set of in-play and micro markets, including lap-by-lap driver matchups, fastest segment performance, pit stop outcomes, overtakes, and position-based milestones. These markets are designed to evolve in real time, enabling a true race-within-a-race experience for bettors.
As the Official and Exclusive Betting Data Supplier of Formula 1, ALT Sports Data is building the foundational infrastructure to support the sport’s growing focus on regulated sports betting and fan engagement. With Formula 1 increasing its investment in official betting partnerships and data-driven engagement, the expansion of sophisticated betting products represents a key strategic initiative for the league and its global ecosystem.
The agreement further establishes ALT Sports Data as a key infrastructure partner for sportsbooks and leagues seeking to unlock the next phase of growth in global sports betting through official data, advanced modeling, and real-time fan engagement.

OpenBet to Provide Official Odds and Pricing for Professional Bull Riding
OpenBet, a leading sports betting entertainment provider, will provide official pricing and odds on PBR (Professional Bull Riders) events for the first time, allowing the sport to pursue legal and official betting.
Together, the two Endeavor-owned properties will offer new betting opportunities for fans, starting with next week’s 2023 PBR Team Series when the bull riding league opens its second 11-event season July 24-25 in Cheyenne, Wyoming. OpenBet will use its unrivalled pricing, trading, and data services to price, create, and distribute odds for PBR events, initially focused on PBR Teams, the elite Unleash The Beast, and its marquee World Finals.
OpenBet has also partnered with ALT Sports Data, a provider of various sports betting services to the alternative sports industry, to provide affiliate marketing services for PBR, referring players to regulated sports books.
“We are delighted to work with one of Endeavor’s most exciting sports properties and deliver official pricing and odds for PBR fans, players, and sportsbooks for the first time. By building official algorithm and data-driven pricing and markets, we will enhance the PBR betting experience, and help drive reach and fan engagement,” Don Jaques, Vice President of Strategy at OpenBet, said.
“PBR betting is now approved in 11 states, providing an untapped betting market for a sport with nonstop excitement and drama. Research shows PBR fans are 89% more likely to bet on sports than the general public. Until now, those setting the odds for PBR have lacked the complete data and necessary understanding of the sport of Professional Bull Riding. OpenBet and ALT Sports Data solve that challenge, allowing PBR to enter an extremely viable market,” Josh Baker, Chief Revenue Officer at PBR, said.
