Market beta calculations from yahoo finance?

hey all, I know yahoo finance is not great per say. But was just trying to do some basic market beta calculations for verifying an AI tool we've built, lets say for a small cap stock PLL, and if you control for frequency, loopback, if benchmark is SP500 or Russell 2000, yahoos market beta is totally off. Am I missing something? The closet thing I can get is if they are calculating betas using prices which seems like they are.
