Prediction-market primitives our engineers ship
Prediction markets went from niche to mainstream in under two years. Volume, capital and regulation are now all pointing the same way.
Combined Kalshi and Polymarket volume in one month, a record lifted by the World Cup.
From about $0.8B a month in July 2024 to $53B a month in July 2026.
Roughly $42B of July 2026 volume on the two leading platforms came from sports markets.
Reached after a $1B funding round led by Coatue in 2026.
Kalshi + Polymarket combined. Volume more than doubled between May and July 2026 and held near $47B in August.
Expands its event contracts into sports.
Acquires QCEX, a CFTC-licensed exchange, to re-enter the U.S.
Raises $1B led by Coatue at a $22B valuation.
Their Rothera exchange starts serving live customers.
Sends a formal event-contract rule proposal to the White House.
$53B traded on the two leading platforms in one month.
Operators earn fees on both sides of each contract instead of betting against users, so revenue grows with volume, not luck.
Every headline, match and data release moves a price, which gives users a reason to open the app every day.
Live crowd probabilities are valuable to media, funds and researchers, adding a second revenue line beyond fees.

Seven clear stages with fixed milestones. Phases overlap, so a focused MVP typically goes live in 12 to 16 weeks.
We map market types, trading model, custody, chains and licence path into one architecture, with fees and liquidity modelled up front.
Collateral, outcome-token, trading, resolution and payout contracts are written with full unit and fuzz test coverage.
The matching engine or AMM, ledger, web and mobile apps, wallets and admin panel are built in two-week sprints, with a demo every sprint.
Oracles, wallet providers, indexers, RPC nodes and payment rails are connected and tested end to end.
Independent audits, penetration tests, load tests and trading simulations confirm every order and payout path behaves correctly.
A public testnet with real users comes first, followed by a staged mainnet launch with monitoring and alerts in place.
We tune liquidity, add market types and chains, and scale infrastructure as your volume grows.
Real products we have built for real businesses, from trading and fintech to fitness, mobility and education, now serving millions of users.
A scalable exam-prep platform with a CMS, smart search, progress tracking and encrypted learning tools.
A universal gym-pass app that gives members access to Gold's Gym locations nationwide from one account.

A nationwide ride-sharing app with safety features, live trip tracking and in-app payments, taken from idea to launch.
Straight answers to what founders, brokers and Web3 teams ask us before starting a prediction market build.
It is the process of building a platform where users trade YES/NO or multi-outcome contracts on real-world events. It covers market creation, a trading engine, smart contracts or a ledger, oracle-based resolution, wallets and payments, and the admin and compliance tools needed to run the business.
A focused MVP usually takes 12 to 16 weeks. A multi-category platform with native apps, market-maker APIs, multi-chain support and full surveillance takes 6 to 9 months. We ship in two-week sprints, so you see a working market early.
White-label is faster and suits teams validating demand with standard features. Custom suits businesses that need their own fee model, market types, chain or licence setup. Many clients start white-label and move to custom as they grow, and we support both paths.
Yes. We build on-chain prediction markets with ERC-1155 outcome tokens, off-chain matching with on-chain settlement, USDC collateral, embedded wallets and oracle resolution with safeguards against manipulation. Every contract is audited before mainnet.
We build on Ethereum and EVM chains such as Polygon, Base, Arbitrum and BNB Chain, on Solana, and on private networks such as Hyperledger Besu. We choose the chain based on fees, speed and where your users and liquidity are.
Each market names a primary data source and a backup. At close, the outcome is proposed automatically from that source through oracles such as UMA or Chainlink, checked against the backup, and opened to a challenge window. Disputed results go to a review panel before winners are paid $1 per share.
Most platforms earn a trading fee on each contract, often scaled by price so fees peak near 50¢. Other revenue lines include maker-taker spreads, market data and API licensing, white-label licensing, sponsored markets and premium analytics. We model the revenue mix before development starts.
We seed new markets with an LMSR automated market maker whose maximum subsidy is capped in advance, onboard market makers through FIX or REST APIs with rebates, launch with fewer and deeper markets, and route trades to the order book as volume grows.
A strong MVP includes one or two market categories, YES/NO trading on an order book or AMM, wallet or card funding, KYC where required, oracle-based resolution, automated payouts and an admin panel for listing and resolving markets. Social features, multi-chain support and market-maker APIs can follow.
Yes. We provide monitoring, bug fixes, liquidity tuning, new market types, chain upgrades and feature releases after launch, through a dedicated team or a monthly support plan.
Book a free strategy call and share your market categories, audience, chain or custody preference and licence path. We will send a custom, itemised quote with a delivery timeline within 48 hours, with no obligation.
Six reasons startups, brokers and Web3 teams trust us with the platform their business runs on.

Proven modules for matching, wallets and admin cut build time, so a custom MVP goes live in 12 to 16 weeks without template shortcuts.
