Polymarket bot development, on spec.

Custom-built Polymarket bots - written directly against the CLOB API, not a SaaS wrapper. Copy trading, arbitrage, market making, sniper, Telegram, whale tracking, volume farming, or your own pattern. Code is yours at delivery, backtested before live, and documented line-by-line.

What we build

Eight patterns we ship most.

Each maps to a sub-page with the strategy unpacked, sample architecture, and budget bracket. Or describe a custom shape - most projects start that way.

Architecture

How a Polymarket bot actually fits together.

A wallet authorizes a proxy contract. Your bot reads the orderbook via the CLOB API and listens to Polygon for state changes. Decisions are made off-chain; orders are signed and submitted to the CLOB. Translation: nothing fancy - but every component matters under load.

DATA IN

Polygon RPC events, CLOB orderbook diffs, market metadata, your custom signal feeds.

DECISIONS

Strategy logic + risk gate + position sizing + rate-limit-aware scheduler.

EXECUTION

EIP-712 signed orders, CLOB REST submit, fill verification, on-chain reconcile.

Process

Six steps. Roughly six weeks.

01

Discovery

30-minute scoping call. We translate your idea into a one-page spec - even if you've never traded before. Output: written spec doc, ballpark quote, timeline.

02

Strategy & assumptions

We document edge sources, position sizing logic, drawdown caps, exit conditions, and known failure modes. If the strategy doesn't survive paper math, we say so before invoice.

03

Backtest

6-12 months of historical CLOB data, with assumptions surfaced. Sensitivity analysis on fee, slippage, latency. Red backtest = we don't ship. We revise the strategy or refund the deposit.

04

Build

Type-checked Python or TypeScript. Direct against CLOB API. Reviewed by a second engineer before merge. You have read access to the repo from day one.

05

Deploy - paper first

Two weeks minimum of paper trading on live markets. Capital is wired only after paper performance matches backtest within tolerance. Monitoring stack live the whole time.

06

Optimize (optional)

Maintenance retainer covers API drift, monitoring uptime, strategy tuning. Opt-in only. The repo is yours either way.

Stack

Boring tools, picked on purpose.

We optimize for legibility over novelty. You should be able to hire any senior engineer and have them productive on your repo in a day.

LANGUAGES

Python 3.12 · TypeScript

Python for strategy + backtesting (vectorbt, pandas). TypeScript for low-latency exec and Telegram surfaces.

DATA

Polygon RPC · Postgres

Self-hosted Polygon indexer (or Alchemy / QuickNode). Postgres for trade history, TimescaleDB for tick data.

EXEC

py-clob-client · ethers.js

Polymarket's official client where it fits, our own wrappers where it doesn't. EIP-712 signing pinned and audited.

INFRA

Hetzner · Railway · AWS

Cheap and boring by default ($20-80/mo). Scale to AWS/Cloudflare when latency matters or you ask for it.

OBSERVABILITY

Grafana · Loki · Sentry

Pre-built dashboards for PnL, fills, latency, rate-limit budget. Alerts to Discord, Telegram, PagerDuty.

CI / RELEASE

GitHub Actions · pytest

Test on every push. Staging environment with paper trading. Production deploys are manual and audited.

Pricing & timelines

Three tiers. Fixed scope. No revenue share.

FAQ

Questions we actually get asked.

Can I use a Polymarket bot in the US?

Polymarket's ToS §2.1.4 restricts US users. We won't help with VPN, proxy, or KYC-circumvention setups. If you're US-based and want exposure, Kalshi (CFTC-regulated) is the right venue - we build for Kalshi too.

Do your bots guarantee profit?

No. Anyone who tells you they can is lying. We deliver a system that executes a strategy exactly as specified, validated on 6-12 months of historical data. Profitability comes from the strategy you choose, the markets you target, and how you size positions - not from the bot itself.

Who owns the code at the end?

You. The repository is transferred to your GitHub or GitLab org at delivery, including history, branches, and all build/deploy configs. We keep a sanitized copy for our reference and a 30-day warranty period; after that, it's entirely yours.

What happens if the backtest is red?

We tell you. Then one of three things: (a) we revise the strategy together until the math works, (b) we pivot to a different strategy under the same contract, or (c) we refund the deposit and part ways. We do not ship bots we wouldn't run with our own money.

How fast is execution? Will my bot front-run others?

Order submission lands in 200-400ms from signal under typical Polygon conditions. We don't promise front-run dominance - that's an arms race we don't sell. We promise correctness, deterministic behavior, and timestamped audit trails.

What ongoing costs should I expect?

Infrastructure: $20-80/month for Starter, $100-400/month for Pro, custom for Enterprise. Polygon gas: ~$0.001-$0.005 per trade. Polymarket fees: per their fee schedule. Maintenance retainer (optional): $1.5k-$4k/month depending on scope.

Do you ever take a revenue share?

No. We charge fixed project fees and optional retainers. Revenue-share arrangements create conflicts of interest around strategy choice and risk levels. We'd rather charge you fairly and stay aligned.

!
Compliance note.

Polymarket restricts US users under §2.1.4 of its Terms of Service. We will not assist with VPN, multi-account, or other circumvention setups. Kalshi is the right venue for US-based operators and we support it natively.
