How Arbitrage Agent Works

From market scanning to locked-in profit — in 5 steps, with detection in milliseconds.

STEP 01

Real-Time Market Scanning

Arbitrage Agent monitors thousands of binary event markets across Polymarket and Kalshi simultaneously. Every second, it compares YES and NO prices for events listed on both platforms — politics, crypto, sports, economics, and more.

STEP 02

AI-Powered Semantic Matching

The same event is often listed with different titles on each platform. Our AI semantic matching engine — with every pair validated before it goes live — identifies that "Will BTC reach $100K by July?" on Polymarket is the same event as "Bitcoin above $100,000 on July 1" on Kalshi — even when the wording is completely different.

STEP 03

Spread & Risk Calculation

When a price gap exists, the agent calculates the gross spread, deducts platform fees (~1% per side), and determines the net edge. Only opportunities above your configured minimum threshold (typically 1.5%+) trigger an alert. Use the free calculator to see how this math works.

STEP 04

Instant Alert & Guided Execution

The moment the edge crosses your threshold, you get a Telegram or email alert that opens a step-by-step guide: which side to buy on each platform, at what price, sized to your bankroll. Arbitrage windows typically last 30–200 seconds — plenty to place two orders from one screen. Fully automated parallel execution (both legs under 400ms, with a circuit breaker that unwinds if one leg fails) is in final testing and rolls out to Operator subscribers soon.

STEP 05

Automatic Settlement

When the event resolves, one contract pays $1.00 and the other pays $0.00. Since you hold both sides, you always receive exactly $1.00 — and your profit (the difference between $1.00 and what you paid) was locked in at execution. No prediction required.
