Data and API
This page explains what you can reuse from Calciometrica's content, what we cannot redistribute (and why), and what plans we have for offering programmatic access to our indicators.
Why isn't there a public API for all the statistics?
The raw statistics you see on the site (lineups, match events, standings, injuries, player bio data) come from commercial providers, primarily API-Football, under a licence that does NOT allow us to redistribute them. Exposing them via API would breach our agreement with the provider. To access these sources you need to go to them directly.
What about auction quotations?
The credit bids we publish on the auction list are our own computed output: our model produces them from each player's projected performance, and they answer "what is worth bidding", not "what is the transfer value".
The pre-season market price is one of the ingredients of that calculation, used to estimate what it will take to win a player. It stays an internal input: we do not republish it, do not export it, and do not redistribute any publisher's price list. What you see in the table is our number.
Calciometrica is not affiliated with or sponsored by Lega Serie A, the clubs, or any fantasy-football game or magazine publisher.
What we CAN offer instead
The content we produce ourselves is ours and we can license it:
- AI Score, form/momentum index, fact-check verdicts: derived metrics we compute (see methodology).
- Editorial articles in 6 languages (Italian, English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese).
- Aggregated transformative indices (e.g. our weekly rankings) that aren't simple copies of the upstream data.
Public API: coming soon
We're preparing programmatic access to our derived and editorial content. It will be:
- authenticated with a personal API key;
- free for personal and development use, with paid tiers for higher volumes;
- limited to content that doesn't reconstruct our providers' feeds (e.g. article titles, slugs, and abstracts but not bulk full bodies; scores without per-event histories);
- governed by terms of service that prohibit syndication and bulk caching.
Bulk export and partner contracts
For more structured use cases (publishers, clubs, agencies, advanced fantasy tools) we plan dedicated contracts: seasonal CSV datasets of our indices, custom endpoints, possible one-to-one integrations. Available after commercial launch.
