The simulation layer for prediction markets
PolySimulator runs live Polymarket markets with real order books, a paper-trading engine, and a programmatic trading API in closed beta. Live markets and a real API, today — not a demo, not a waitlist.

Prediction markets need a real environment
Prediction markets are growing fast, but the tooling around them is still early. Compared with equities, crypto, and options, there is no standard place to learn, test, and develop strategies without risking capital.
PolySimulator fills that gap. We launched a live paper-trading platform so anyone could practice on real market data, then opened a trading API so developers could build against it. Today it serves traders, researchers, and developers working with prediction markets.
One environment, four products
Paper trading simulator
Practice on live Polymarket markets with real order books and a $1,000 virtual balance. Simulated fills against live odds — no wallet, no KYC, no deposits.
Trading API
CLOB-compatible REST + WebSocket endpoints for bots and automated strategies, plus a public Python SDK (sync, async, and WebSocket). Closed beta on the Pro plan.
Backtesting engine
Replay strategies against historical market data to evaluate them before deploying. In development.
