Sports, for their part, grant Genius Sports the rights to commercialize their data and video content with sportsbooks, casinos and media companies. About 300 sportsbook companies, including FanDuel, Skybet, and Bet365, are among Genius Sports' betting partners. Genius Sports provides live data, odds, and streams from over 240,000 live sports events every year to sportsbooks.
In May 2019, Genius Sports announced a partnership with the NASCAR stock-car racing association to become the exclusive provider of NASCAR data to licensed sportsbooks worldwide. Genius Sports announced a partnership with the National Football League in April 2021 to serve as their exclusive distributor of live NFL data and analytics to bookmakers and media companies.
