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.
