Hello developers,
Since our last update in October, we've been focused on making padel data accessible to everyone, not just developers. Here's what's new:
1. Padel API into ChatGPT
The biggest addition since October is Padel Analyst, our MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets you query padel data using natural language.
Connect your favorite AI assistant (ChatGPT, Claude, VS Code, etc,) and ask questions like:
- "Who won the last Premier Padel Major?"
- "Compare Lebron/Galan vs Coello/Tapia head-to-head"
- "Show me the top 10 ranked women players"
- "Simulate a match between two pairs"
No code required. Just ask what you want to know and the AI will fetch the data for you.

2. New Analyst Plan (19€/month)
We've introduced a new entry-level plan designed for data analysts, journalists, and padel enthusiasts who want AI-powered access without full API integration:
- Up to 50K requests/month
- MCP access for ChatGPT & Claude
- Natural language data exploration
- API access (last 6 months of data)
- Basic support
Perfect for content creators and analysts who want to explore padel data conversationally.
3. 2026 Season Ready
We've expanded our data coverage to include FIP Gold tournaments, adding more matches, more players, and deeper insights into the professional and semi-professional padel circuit.
The API is also fully prepared for the 2026 Premier Padel season. All tournament calendars, player rankings, and match data are being tracked from day one.
Also new since October:
- Pairs endpoint: Full pair information with match history and statistics
- Player statistics: Detailed performance metrics per player
- Per-page parameter: Better control over pagination in list endpoints
- Cancelled match status: Track match cancellations
- Timezone fixes: Improved live match point-by-point data accuracy
