Paper accounting uses a fixed 1u stake per published signal. A win returns odds − 1u, a loss −1u, and a void 0u. This ledger records analysis performance; it does not place wagers.

01 / crawl
Read the provider.
The scheduled backend imports football fixtures, prediction estimates and bookmaker odds from API-FOOTBALL. Four specialist agent roles organize the pipeline; these are scheduled data jobs using provider predictions.
02 / compare
Price the probability.
A provider probability is an estimate, not a promise. Raw implied probability is 1 ÷ decimal odds. Each inspector shows the raw edge and the margin-adjusted market probability.
edge = estimate − (1 ÷ decimal odds)03 / track
Keep the whole ledger.
The price and estimate are captured when a signal is published. Final fixture results determine the paper settlement. Unavailable data stays unavailable; no simulated picks are added to the live ledger.
Where does the data come from?
API-FOOTBALL supplies the football data, odds and provider predictions. The inspector names the bookmaker, model version and observation time. Coverage depends on the configured provider plan and competition. Crawlbet has not independently calibrated provider estimates.
What does spawning an agent do?
Sign in to save an agent profile with a league and focus. These profiles store your analysis interests. The shared scheduled pipeline runs the four global specialist roles; a custom profile does not deploy an independent AI model or place a bet.
How does the watchlist work?
Your watchlist is saved in your authenticated account. A failed save is reported, and the interface only marks the signal saved after the server confirms it.
What happens before an API key is configured?
The connected dashboard shows API key required, zero active metrics and empty live signals/results. You can choose the separate demo route to explore illustrative examples. Demo activity and results never enter this ledger.
Does Crawlbet guarantee winning bets?
No. A probability estimate carries uncertainty and a positive calculated edge can lose. The paper ledger measures tracked published picks; a short result history does not establish a profitable strategy.
