Start with a finding. See where the evidence takes you.
Courtside turns available basketball market data into a research workspace built around your questions. The AI experience is in limited testing; public prices, the quick overview, and the market explorer are available without AI access.
1. Let Courtside start the investigation
In the AI workspace, select “Build my brief.” Courtside scans accessible markets and investigates up to three outcomes, retrieving recorded price history and available source evidence. You do not need to invent the first question.
The assistant writes the findings and chooses the views that help explain them. The result may be a price movement to inspect, a settlement question to resolve, or an explanation of why current coverage cannot support a useful comparison. It is a bounded investigation, not a complete ranking of every market.
2. Open the evidence behind a finding
Each generated insight points to evidence you can inspect. History shows available ask observations and the change between their first and last values. Depth shows returned ask levels, contract quantities, and gross cost at each level. Settlement views show stored classifications and available source excerpts.
Check the dates and limits. A history request may contain fewer observations than the full requested interval. A recorded quote may no longer be available. Source excerpts may be incomplete, and similar team names do not establish that two contracts settle the same way.
3. Follow the question that matters to you
Choose a suggested follow-up or type your own question. Ask to examine the recorded move, inspect the size behind an offer, or read the settlement text. The assistant brings the relevant evidence into the main canvas and can rearrange it for comparison.
You can also open a source directly, remove a panel, or switch between focused and side-by-side views. Research panels retain their retrieved snapshots; use the refresh action when you need to reassess current conditions.
4. Judge what the data actually establishes
Where supported sportsbook inputs exist, Courtside calculates an independent reference after removing bookmaker margin. It is an estimate, not the true probability of a win. A difference between that reference and an exchange ask does not by itself establish value.
Missing references, old quotes, limited size, and unverified rules remain part of the finding. A recorded move does not explain why it happened. Courtside does not supply an injury or lineup feed, place wagers, or establish a profitable betting advantage.
Common questions
Can I use Courtside without AI access?
Yes. Public market and league pages, the quick overview, and the market explorer remain available. The AI workspace is in limited testing and is not included with a Pro subscription.
Where does the evidence come from?
Courtside uses ingested Kalshi and Polymarket quotes, stored price observations, available depth, and stored contract information. Supported sportsbook feeds supply independent references where available; missing coverage is labeled.
Does the AI calculate the chart values?
No. The application renders numeric charts and tables from retrieved records. The AI chooses the views and explains the evidence. Its prose can still be wrong, so every finding should be checked against its sources.
