Odds / Gold Gate
Standard and Silver are about the results feed. Gold is about the money layer — and the gate only opens for a sport that carries an odds_markets table.

The Gold gate — only odds opens it
Why odds is the differentiator
A results feed tells you who won. Odds-as-a-service tells you what the market thought would happen before it did — the implied probabilities, the line movement, the closing price. That timeseries, joined to the same competitor_id as the rest of the spine, is what a sportsbook or a QuiverQuant-style buyer actually pays for; a plain results table is a commodity. This is why odds_markets is the one requirement that separates Gold from Silver.
This completeness platform is distinct from the live betting API at api.altsportsdata.com — that surface serves prices in real time. Here the odds layer is the bridge: the historical, warehouse-resident odds that let a buyer backtest against completed events before they ever wire up the live feed.

Who clears the gate
| Sport | Silver-ready? | Odds? | Gold? |
|---|---|---|---|
Supercross / Motocross Silver-capable — 6/6 spine + archetype depth, but no odds market. | yes | no | no |
World Surf League Silver-capable — 6/6 spine + archetype depth, but no odds market. | yes | no | no |
Major Arena Soccer League Silver-capable — 6/6 spine + archetype depth, but no odds market. | yes | no | no |
High Limit Racing Silver-capable — 6/6 spine + archetype depth, but no odds market. | yes | no | no |
Formula 1 Pipeline sport (via f1_odds_analytics). Carries odds — the only key through the gate.pipeline | no | yes | no |
All four curated verticals are Silver-capable, yet none reach Gold — the missing column is always odds_markets. F1 carries odds but still needs promotion onto the asd_* spine, so Gold today is 0.
