Preview brief
# Integration brief: Owls Insight Goal: build a feature on Owls Insight data. Use only the official documentation below as the source of truth. ## Known facts (from SportDex, verify before relying on them) - Website: https://owlsinsight.com - Docs: https://owlsinsight.com/docs - Sports: American football, College sports, Basketball, Ice hockey, Baseball, Football (soccer), Tennis, Esports - Data: Fixtures, Historical data, Odds, Player props, Player stats, Live scores - Protocols: REST, WebSocket, Webhooks; formats: json - Auth: api_key - Free plan: none listed - Cheapest paid plan: $9.99/mo - Note: Annual billing 20% off. No free API tier (free EV scanner web page only). Country from Irvine, CA address on site. ## Verify before writing code - live update frequency - whether commercial use is allowed on the plan you pick - exact endpoint paths, parameters and response fields (read the official docs, do not guess) ## Implementation rules - Keep the API key on the server (environment variable, backend route or edge function); never ship it to the browser. - Cache responses and respect rate limits; count how many requests each screen triggers. - Handle errors explicitly: invalid key, quota exceeded (429), missing fields, empty fixtures, timeouts. - Start with one demo request and log the raw response before building UI on assumed field names.
