ODDS ON COMPLIANCE LAUNCHES GAME-CHANGING REGULATORY TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM, PLAYBOOK

Odds On Compliance, the industry-leading technology and consultancy firm specializing in sports betting, iGaming, and gambling regulatory compliance in the U.S. and abroad, has launched Playbook, the game-changing technology platform that provides the most comprehensive overview ever produced of the U.S. sports betting, iGaming, daily fantasy sports, and iLottery regulatory environment, updated in real time as information changes state-by-state. Playbook provides users with one-click access to state document libraries which are carefully curated, managed, and automatically updated to ensure all data is as current as the information published on all state regulatory agency repositories.
Playbook will be offered in three tiers with the basic level available free-of-charge to all users who register for an account. Playbook+ offers unique features, including state homepages, Versus (a quick view cross-jurisdictional comparison tool), alerts, built-in statute and regulation definitions (readily accessed by hovering over key terms), embedded annotation functionality, and team collaboration. PlaybookAI adds cross-state search functionality, leveraging Odds On Compliance’s proprietary natural language and text classification artificial intelligence model.
“I am delighted to share this one-of-a-kind technology, Playbook, with our clients and the industry as a whole,” commented Eric Frank, CEO and Co-Founder of Odds On Compliance. “Playbook is a game changer. It fuses cutting-edge technology with continuously updated information about the ever-evolving regulatory and compliance landscape in the gaming space. We believe that Playbook will be the industry’s go-to resource for effectively and more efficiently navigating these complex regulatory frameworks in the U.S., and eventually abroad. As experts in the gaming field, who work in and rely on these documents day in and day out, the Odds On team knows first-hand how crucial it is for businesses entering or operating in this space to have quick, easy access to the most accurate and up-to-date information. With the goal of providing the most advanced tools to support and enhance tremendous growth already happening in the gaming industry, we created Playbook.”
For the month of April, Odds On Compliance will offer an early look at Playbook+ to industry experts. Interested parties can request early access by completing the “request access” form at oddsoncompliance.com. In May, Playbook will be accessible to all members of the industry seeking a one-stop source for the most comprehensive, up-to-date regulatory information across the U.S.
“The technology behind Playbook is the driver behind the tool’s power,” explained Mark Scrivo, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder. “We’ve built Playbook to not only solve the industry’s problems of today, but also to anticipate solving the problems of tomorrow. We’re excited to roll out additional features and jurisdictions over the next few months and look forward to the industry digging into Playbook.”

Northern Super League Partners with Stats Perform

Stats Perform, the global leader in sports AI, data and technology, has announced an official data partnership with the Northern Super League (NSL). The partnership will allow world-leading Opta data to be collected live from every NSL league game for the next three years.
Beginning this month, the Northern Super League (NSL) establishes a new era in Canadian sport as the country’s first professional domestic women’s soccer league — an ambitious and transformative initiative co-founded by former Canadian international and Olympic medallist Diana Matheson. Its inaugural season kicks off on April 16 and will feature six teams who have assembled multinational player rosters with extensive club and international experience, including 100-cap Canadian internationals Desiree Scott and Quinn.
Once the action begins, detailed data from every on-ball event, including advanced AI-powered Opta Analytics metrics such as Expected Goals (xG) and Expected Assists (xA), will be captured and distributed via feeds and Stats Perform products, including OptaAI Studio. This will enable various broadcasters, publishers and rights holders to generate stories and insights throughout the NSL season and provide them straight to the league’s fans in real time.
As part of the agreement, the NSL’s League Office and every NSL club will also have access to Opta Search, part of OptaAI Studio. This will allow their content creators to leverage all Opta data collected during the NSL season in the creation of data-led stories on the stand-out performers, and will help them generate key talking points for publication on official league and club platforms. Opta Search will also empower the NSL’s media team to create a range of data visualizations, including player shot maps and touch maps, to visually illustrate the impact of different players’ on-field performances.
Christina Litz, NSL President, said: “We are thrilled to have Stats Perform on board as our official data partner. When we talk about detailed performance data in soccer, Opta is the gold standard, so we are delighted to have it powering each of our official digital channels. As the season progresses, we want to put the spotlight on all the on-field heroes who emerge and having access to world-class data will help us tell their stories and inspire a new generation of Canadian soccer fans.”
Steve Xeller, Chief Revenue Officer at Stats Perform, said: “Stats Perform has been a huge supporter of expansion leagues around the world, so we are very pleased to be partnering with NSL in the lead-up to their first domestic campaign. Seeing a fully professional women’s soccer league launch in Canada is an incredibly exciting development for the sport in North America and we see considerable potential in working proactively with the League’s Head Office to help the competition grow, using the power of AI and data-led storytelling to build fan communities across the continent.”
