GRID Esports Data Platform — Open Access (Live Data Feed)

GRID Esports Data Platform — Open Access (Live Data Feed) is a websocket from GRID.gg (GRID Esports) providing esports data. GRID is an official-source esports data platform that ingests in-game telemetry directly from game servers for titles like CS2 and Dota 2. Its real-time Live Data Feed streams granular match state and in-game events (kills, rounds, objectives, gold), while a GraphQL Central Data API supplies schedules, series/team metadata, and match state — authoritative inputs for pricing and settling Polymarket esports match-winner markets. The free Open Access tier targets independent builders and pre-revenue startups.
