Data Sources & Attribution

FRCinsights combines official competition data with its own experimental analytics. Every important value carries a source label so you always know whether you're looking at an official result or a APEX estimate.

This project is independent and is not affiliated with FIRST, Statbotics, The Blue Alliance, or any official FRC organization.

How source conflicts are handled

  • • Both raw values are preserved, official scores and rankings are never averaged.
  • • The configured authoritative source is selected; the other is recorded.
  • • Official data is never overwritten by AI-inferred or estimated data.
  • • A temporary source delay is not treated as an error until a configurable freshness window passes; only then is it flagged as a conflict.
  • • When a disagreement affects a visible metric, a data-quality warning is shown.

2026 REBUILT game data

The 2026 REBUILT scoring values are set from official score data from completed 2026 events, so points, fouls, and ranking-point rules match official results. 2 endgame climb point values are still marked as estimates until they can be confirmed against the official 2026 Game Manual. Those values are clearly labeled wherever they appear.

Refresh timing

  • • Team identity & historical data: cached up to 24 hours.
  • • Event metadata: cached up to 6 hours.
  • • Upcoming schedules: refreshed about every 30 minutes.
  • • Active-event results & rankings: refreshed about every minute.
  • • Failed or empty responses never erase good cached data (stale-while-error).

Report an error

Spotted something that looks wrong? Official FIRST / FMS results always take priority over APEX estimates, so if a number here disagrees with the official result, trust the official one, and we work to correct it.
