Scans both Polymarket and Kalshi simultaneously, matches binary prediction markets on the same topic, and surfaces price discrepancies where you can lock in a risk-free profit by buying YES on one platform and NO on the other.
How the arbitrage works
Both platforms resolve the same way: YES pays $1.00/share, NO pays $0.00/share (or vice versa). If Polymarket prices a market at YES = $0.55 and Kalshi prices the same market at YES = $0.68:
| Action | Cost | Payout if YES | Payout if NO |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buy YES on Polymarket | $0.55 | +$1.00 | $0.00 |
| Buy NO on Kalshi | $0.32 | $0.00 | +$1.00 |
| Total | $0.87 | $1.00 | $1.00 |
Guaranteed profit: $0.13 per share = 14.9% return regardless of outcome.

Important notes
- Not financial advice. Real arb requires both trades to fill simultaneously. Slippage, transaction fees, and timing can reduce or eliminate the profit.
- Markets are matched by keyword similarity — always verify the two markets resolve on the same underlying event before trading.
- Kalshi operates in the US and is CFTC-regulated. Polymarket is accessible to non-US users only.
- Results are sorted by
return_pctdescending — highest-return opportunities first. - A
similarity_scorebelow 0.4 means the match is looser — verify manually before trading.
