Previously, a filter like "xG ≤ 0.5" could pass in leagues without xG coverage, as if the value were zero. Now the condition doesn't pass, and the verification logs show why: "league without xG" or "xG not received yet".
Exit conditions using historical stats or indicators now trigger correctly, just like in the Bot. The form now has Number of games, Same competition and Same venue fields for exits. Affected older runs show a notice to edit the condition and run again.
For LAY trades, ROI, Yield and the other report percentages are now calculated on liability, the same way as in the Bot report. Yield is now shown as a %, and the new "Average per trade" shows the average profit per entry.
Exit conditions now accept historical statistics and indicators with a game window (1 to 40), including the Same competition and Same home/away options, just like entry conditions.
Match statistics and scores now respond faster, making it quicker to move between matches and reports.
Exits based on historical statistics now show and keep the number of games, same competition and same home/away setting when you save. The 20-cycle limit now applies only to the Cycles Method, so bots with other staking plans save normally again.
Exit conditions now accept historical statistics and indicators with a game window (1 to 40), including the Same competition and Same home/away options, just like entry conditions.
The backtest list now loads progressively with infinite scroll and opens quickly even on accounts with many backtests. The Entry Statistics analysis is also much faster on large runs.
Opening match statistics, live games and reports is faster: queries now run closer to the data.
When Betfair rejects an entry or exit, the bot log now shows the reason plainly, such as expired session, insufficient funds or suspended market.
Bots whose stop is set to reset no longer log the same reset over and over in their history. Stake and stop rules remain the same.
When forcing or proposing ticks around odds 30, the bot now follows Betfair's official ladder (30, 32, 34…) and no longer sends the rejected 31. Connection hiccups with Betfair also no longer stall live and pre-match entry checks.
If Bolsa stops accepting the Bot's access to your account (for example, due to an account restriction), a notice in the dashboard explains why. Once it is resolved, just open the Bot and it can trade again.
When Bolsa rejects an entry or exit, the log now shows the reason in plain language: market closed or suspended, insufficient balance, stake below the minimum or bets placed too quickly. The history also no longer repeats the same automatic stop reset over and over.
Cumulative statistics no longer reset to zero right after a period change, and statistics not covered for a match (such as xG) now show as "No data" instead of 0.
Creating, activating and changing the stake of many bots is more reliable, without timeout errors. While running, an invalid price in one match no longer holds up other bots, and the engine recovers better from instability.
Rented bots show when the rental ends and its history. When a rental expires, the bot menu and error notice offer a "Renew rental" button, and the bot is activated again after renewal.
The dashboard's Import trades button works normally again for Betfair and Bolsa accounts. On the desktop app, update to version 2.7.46.
Rentals that have ended now live in their own tab, showing when they expired and a button to renew. The Active tab only shows bots still within their rental period.
When you rent a bot you already had again, even after the period ended, just pick the new period and pay: stake and group stay as they were. If the bot was inactive, it resumes and the reactivation shows up in its history.
The Entry Statistics card now has an "At minute" tab: pick a minute and see how still-open trades looked at that moment, ideal for finding exit conditions. You can also simulate a cashout at that minute's odds and compare it with each range's actual result.
In the Bot report's "At minute" tab, each simulated range has a button to create a backtest. The form opens pre-filled with the chosen minute and range so you can review it before running.
Bot Betfair users can now also share their backtests and results with the AI connected to the Bot, just like on Bot Bolsa.
You can now connect your account to AI assistants such as ChatGPT and Claude to check bots, operations and reports, analyze statistics, and create or adjust bots through conversation. Set it up in Settings > Connections and AI.
In the report's At minute analysis, simulate exiting (cash out) or entering at the chosen minute using the actual odds at that moment, and compare with each operation's real result. Any row can become a backtest in one click.
The new "At minute" tab shows your operations' statistics at a match minute you choose, great for finding exit conditions. You can also simulate how exiting or entering at that minute, at the price of the moment, would compare with the real result.
In the report's At minute analysis, simulate exiting or entering at the chosen minute using the actual odds at that moment, and compare with each operation's real result.
New At minute tab in Statistics and indicators: see a statistic's value at a specific minute across all operations still open. Great for finding exit conditions for bots that enter early.
When connected to ChatGPT or Claude, the Bot now scans all statistics and indicators of your operations at once and returns the ranges that help or hurt the most. The AI also uses fewer messages, handles usage limits better and builds native charts right in the chat.
New At minute tab in Statistics and indicators: see a statistic's value at a specific minute across all operations still open. Great for finding exit conditions for bots that enter early.
Your Bolsa de Aposta bets now stay in sync with the exchange, including partially matched bets and bulk cancellations. PL, cashout and freebet show the right values throughout the match, on web and desktop.
The Number of cycles field shows an error right away if you go above 20, the same limit as the Bot. This keeps your backtest from using a setup the Bot won't accept.
When analyzing a backtest through your connected AI, it can scan all statistics, pre-live odds and indicators at once and show the ranges that hurt profit the most and those with the best ROI. You can also cross ranges from different statistics over the same trades.
Reports now include a Compare management card: it replays your real operations with Fixed, % of bankroll, % of profit/loss, Martingale and Cycles Method, showing profit, max drawdown and risk for each. You can create a bot with the chosen method in one click.
The new "Compare staking plans" card replays your real operations with Fixed, % of bankroll, % of profit/loss, Martingale and Cycles Method, with a chart and a table of profit and max drawdown. With one click you can create a bot with the chosen plan, stop green and stop red already filled in.
With write permission, the connected ChatGPT or Claude can create bots (always inactive so you can review them), edit bots with a preview before saving, create indicators, organize groups and adjust game lists. A dashboard notice tells you when to update the connection to unlock new features.
Reports now include a Compare management card: it replays your real operations with Fixed, % of bankroll, % of profit/loss, Martingale and Cycles Method, showing profit, max drawdown and risk for each. You can create a bot with the chosen method in one click.
Sellers can now look up their sales by payment number, download the receipt as a PDF or get it by email. Before renting, buyers read and accept clearer terms about risks and the absence of guaranteed profit.
Settings is now split into tabs, the dashboard makes better use of screen width and the Daily chart shows the weekday. The sidebar scrolls in short windows, scrollbars are less intrusive and bot dialogs no longer close on their own when the table refreshes.
In the Daily performance chart, the dashboard and report now show the weekday next to the date on hover.
Every user can now connect their Bot account to ChatGPT, Claude and other AI assistants under Settings > Connections & AI, with a step-by-step video tutorial. The AI can read your bots, operations, full reports and match history to analyze your strategies.
Fully filled orders are now reconciled right away, even before the market resolves, so the account's next entries are no longer held back waiting for confirmation.
The log summary now says whether the bot approved or rejected the entry and exit filters, separately from placing the order. The logs' game filter also lists every evaluated match.
With the permission enabled, your connected AI can create strategy variations, organize groups, bring in indicators from the Bot and run backtests. You always confirm the cost of each run beforehand, and you can generate a PIX from the conversation itself to add balance.
When creating a bot from a backtest, you can now restrict it to the leagues and teams that actually traded in the run. The "Create in Bot" button also no longer disappears after you open the report.
Closing odds only exist after kickoff, so backtests with pre-live entries that used them ended with no trades. The form now blocks this combination and suggests using "Current odds" instead.
The form is now comfortable on mobile: larger buttons and checkboxes, lists that become cards, pickers that open from the bottom, and errors shown right below each field in plain language.
When creating a backtest you see the cost per month, can select the full period and confirm the price right away. When you open a result for the first time, it plays out month by month, and the queue screen tells you it's safe to leave because the result stays saved.
The Odds Ranges table is now more detailed between 1.01 and 3.00, and the "View trades" button is easier to spot and opens already filtered by the chosen range.
Reports, statistic filters and indicators no longer treat a cumulative statistic as zero right after a period change: each team's last known value is kept.
Bots that enter before kick-off can no longer use the pre-match closing odds, which only exist after the start and left the bot idle. The form explains why and suggests Current odds, and bots with this setup show a warning to review.
Creating and editing bots on mobile is much easier: no clipped fields, larger touch targets, bottom-sheet pickers, tap-friendly tips and errors shown right under each field.
With the same connection, the AI can access your backtests and results, suggest validating ideas in Backtest, and create and run backtests after you confirm the cost in the chat. You can also generate a PIX payment to top up your Backtest balance from the conversation.
Closing odds only exist after kickoff, so they are no longer accepted in pre-live entries. Older bots in this situation are flagged in the list and in the editor, with guidance to switch to "Current odds".
Creating and editing bots on your phone is much easier: larger touch-friendly fields and buttons, pickers that open as bottom sheets, errors explained right below each field and a more compact header.
Reports, statistic filters and indicators no longer treat a cumulative statistic as zero right after a period change: each team's last known value is kept.
Bots that enter before kick-off can no longer use the pre-match closing odds, which only exist after the start and left the bot idle. The form explains why and suggests Current odds, and bots with this setup show a warning to review.
Each bot's entry history has a new look: competition logo and name, teams with crests and the final score. Green results now show in green, making them easier to read.
The catalog and bot metrics load faster, and the occasional errors when opening Marketplace pages are gone.
Pending operations now show the final score and separate finished matches awaiting settlement, instead of looking like they are still in play. Bot logs and other dialogs also no longer close on their own when the table refreshes.
The top of open operations now shows total matched liability and live P/L for the selected bots. Finished matches show the final score and appear separately while awaiting settlement.
On Polymarket, GAP is now the percentage spread between back and lay odds: GAP 2 accepts up to a 2% difference. Existing filters keep their value, now read as a percentage.
Build automated bots for Polymarket's football markets with the same filters, live statistics, indicators and stake management as Layback Bot, running in the cloud 24/7. Connect your account with your wallet key (stored encrypted), track your USD balance, operations, profit/loss and reports, and get Telegram alerts. No monthly fee: your balance stays in your Polymarket account.
Connect the Backtest to the Bot and use the same AI connector as the Bot (ChatGPT, Claude) to explore your backtests and results. You choose what to share in Settings → Connections & AI and can revoke it anytime; backtests created by the AI get an "AI" badge.
In the Games tab, each team now shows its badge next to its name. In the market window, the badge also appears in each ladder header and in the runner switcher menu.
Creating and activating bots, individually or in bulk, and changing the stake of many bots at once is now more reliable, without intermittent failures at peak times.
In the desktop app, on eligible Betfair in-play markets, bets that don't cross the price go in instantly, without the bet delay. An icon next to In-Play shows when the market offers this, and the countdown for other bets ends as soon as the order is confirmed.
New Expand sub-ticks option in Settings › General: when on, the ladder follows the market's price grid and offers like 42.8¢ and 42.9¢ each get their own row. When off, the ladder keeps its one-cent steps and offers below 1¢ or above 99¢ now show up at the ends.
If you don't have your wallet key yet, the login screen now links to a tutorial that takes you from creating your Polymarket account to pasting the key into the app, in your language.

You can now use stoppage (added) time in filters and formulas, and set an exact entry minute such as 30–30 or 46–46. Added time is only used when data sources agree.

When the Stop red or an exhausted bankroll stops new entries, the result shows a notice explaining why trades end before the final date. Cards now have an alert icon, and the list can be sorted by profit, trades and ROI.
A complete guide explains every form field, with images and examples. It's in the sidebar, and each form step has an "Understand this step" link.
