Discord Bot with Sports/Esports EV Betting Picks

I need a Discord bot built that posts positive expected value (+EV) sports betting picks to a channel, plus esports match schedules/scores. I have the full technical spec already written — APIs picked, EV formula defined, architecture outlined. This is integration work, not research. What's provided: Working API keys for The Odds API (sports odds) and PandaScore (esports stats) — I'll provide on hire Complete EV calculation formula (Python, ready to use) Full architecture spec (polling schedule, caching approach, bookmaker lists) Core deliverables (must-have, fixed price): Discord bot that connects to my server Scheduled polling (1-2x daily, not live) of The Odds API for sports moneylines + player props EV calculation comparing soft-book odds (DraftKings/FanDuel/Caesars) against Pinnacle as the sharp reference Caching layer (database) so the bot never calls the API live per Discord command Bot posts flagged +EV picks to a designated channel, above a configurable EV threshold PandaScore integration for esports match schedules/results posted to a separate channel Basic error handling with retry/backoff (no runaway API costs) Documentation: how to run it, how to add new sports/leagues, how to change the EV threshold Stretch goal (only if time allows within budget — not required): OddsPapi integration for esports moneyline EV detection (this API is unverified/free-tier, so treat as experimental) Tech preferences: Python or Node.js, whichever you're stronger in. Open to your hosting recommendation (needs to run 24/7 cheaply). Budget & Payment Structure: $500 fixed price, split into milestones Milestone 1 ($150) — Foundation: Discord bot connects to server, The Odds API integration pulling live sports odds data, caching layer working. Paid on demo of working data pull + bot online in server. Milestone 2 ($200) — Core Logic: EV calculation implemented and verified accurate against manual spot-checks, picks posting to Discord channel automatically on schedule. Paid on demo of at least 3 correctly-calculated +EV picks posted live. Milestone 3 ($150) — Esports + Polish: PandaScore esports schedule/results integration, error handling/retry logic, documentation delivered. Paid on final delivery + handoff call. To apply: Tell me your estimated hours for each milestone, and confirm you've worked with Discord bots + REST API integrations before.
