Krok Odds is the closest Australian rival: an A$49-a-month API with 50,000 credits, tote pools, Racing.com sectionals, Betfair BSP in its results and a 99.9% SLA, behind a betting-tools product. PuntersEdge is a data API only: a measured fixed-odds panel of 14 Australian bookmakers on every race, a permanent price-path archive, New Zealand racing, a free tier that reads the same data as paid, and an MCP server. Where Krok is stronger this page says so.
Free tier · 3,000 credits/mo · no credit card. 14 Australian bookmakers on racing — BetRight, BetDeluxe, BetGold, BoostBet, TAB, Betr, PointsBet, TABtouch, Sportsbet, Palmerbet, Unibet, NextBet (formerly PlayUp), Ladbrokes and Neds — and 6 on sports.
| Feature | Krok Odds | PuntersEdge |
|---|---|---|
| Product shape | Betting-tools subscription (arb, +EV, tips) with an API tier | Odds-data API; open-source scanner and MCP server on top |
| API price | A$49/mo, 50,000 credits, 500 req/min; archive calls 5 credits, bulk 25 (their API FAQ) | Standard A$29/mo, 75,000 credits, 200 req/min; Plus A$49/mo, 140,000, 500 req/min; Business 750 req/min; Platform A$199/mo, 1,500,000 |
| Free tier | A$0, 50 credits/mo, 5 req/min, 5-minute cache (their API page) | 3,000 credits/mo, 30 req/min, same live data as paid |
| Fixed-odds racing panel | "140+ Australian bookmaker brands" on the home page, counting white-label brands on shared platforms; "12+ AU books" on the API sign-in page (both read 24 September 2026) | 14 Australian books served, median 14 per race, measured on the public coverage report |
| Freshness | Live endpoints cached 60 s server-side and racing meetings refreshed every 120 s — "typically within 60 seconds of the live market" (their API FAQ); 15 s minimum cache on the enterprise tier | Every served book re-read every 8–17 s (median, trailing 24 h, public coverage report); next-to-go responses are cached for up to 65 s and say so (cached, cache_age_seconds); /v1/racing/changes is never cached |
| Push | Server-sent event stream of opportunities (curl -N /v1/stream/opportunities in their docs), plus webhooks | No stream. /v1/racing/changes?since= returns only what moved (2 credits, never cached); webhooks on Plus and above fire on first prices and arbitrage, not on every price move |
| Tote pools | Yes — pool totals, dividends and exotic pools per race | Tote price on /v1/racing/best-odds where a book quotes one; no pool totals |
| Betfair / BSP | Exchange back/lay and BSP in results (their docs) | Exchange prices are not included; ingested for reference only, withheld pending a licence |
| Sectionals | Racing.com L600/L400/L200 for thoroughbreds | RA sectionals on thoroughbred form where published; no greyhound sectionals |
| Price history | Results and odds history back to January 2024 (their FAQ); per-book odds snapshots at ~5-minute granularity, about two weeks deep and growing; API plan only | Change-only capture of every move; permanent closing-line and price-path archive from 17 August 2026, CSV and Parquet, Plus and above (Standard reads a rolling 90-day window) |
| New Zealand | AU/NZ/UK-IE meetings on their racing board | NZ thoroughbred and harness on every endpoint, measured: 12 books, median 12 per race |
| SLA and enterprise | 99.9% SLA on the API plan; an enterprise tier with 15s cache freshness and 1,000 req/min, no price published | No published SLA; public uptime on /v1/uptime and connector health on /v1/health/connectors |
| AI assistants | Postman collection and code samples | puntersedge-mcp on PyPI — the API as tools in Claude, Cursor and any MCP client |
| Public display | "Attribution required for public display" | Plus and above with a "Prices by PuntersEdge" credit; Platform without it |
You want tote pool totals, Betfair BSP beside results, Racing.com sectionals, a contractual SLA, or a push stream — Krok publishes all five and PuntersEdge does not. You also get their arb and +EV tooling in the same subscription.
You want the deepest fixed-odds panel on every Australian and New Zealand race, re-read every 8–17 s rather than served from a 60-second cache, a permanent change-level price-path archive you can load straight into pandas, a free tier that returns live data, and the API as MCP tools. You are building your own product, not renting theirs.
