Could you build this?

No Aggregating real-time odds across 100+ bookmakers requires massive, expensive data feeds, continuous anti-bot evasion for scraping, and sub-second data streaming infrastructure.

What it would actually take: Building Linewhale requires high-throughput streaming architecture (Kafka/Flink, Elixir, or Go) coupled with specialized sports data partnerships (like Sportradar/OddsJam API) or high-scale distributed scrapers running residential proxy rotations across 8 geographic regions. The hardest parts are handling latency-sensitive odds normalization across hundreds of different API/DOM formats and paying tens of thousands per month for data feeds or proxy infrastructure. Deep domain knowledge of sports betting line mechanics, market types, and distributed scrapers is essential.

Same idea, different domain

Nobody's really built a analytics & bi tool for Legal yet.

{# Ad rails are position:fixed (see app.css's .sponsor-rail), so moving them after
in source order is purely cosmetic for the DOM -- visually they stay pinned left/right exactly as before. Put here so a linear text reader (an automated site-verification crawler, a screen reader, a search engine) hits the real page content first instead of a wall of repeated "Open slot" ad-placeholder filler before ever reaching a sentence about what Nicheloom is. #}
