Prediction-market & sportsbook spread scanner
ArbTrader checks every open Kalshi and Polymarket event for bundles that pay out more than they cost — priced against the live order book, after each platform’s fees — and shows you the exact legs, prices, size and links on your dashboard. The app you run adds cross-platform spreads on matches you confirm, sportsbook lines, and one-tap order tickets on Pro.
From $19.99/month at launch pricing. A live dashboard at arbtrader.co, plus the app on your own machine with your own API keys — never ours.
How it works
Run ArbTrader on your own machine and add your Kalshi and Polymarket API keys. They stay local — we never see them.
Your dashboard at arbtrader.co lists every qualifying Kalshi and Polymarket bundle, re-priced about once a minute. The app on your computer streams order books in real time, adds cross-platform and sportsbook spreads, and can ping Discord.
Every opportunity shows the exact contracts, prices, sizes, and a direct link to each leg, so you can check it before anything happens.
Base: click through and place each leg yourself. Pro: open an order ticket on a Kalshi/Polymarket spread, set the size, confirm, and the legs go out from your machine. Nothing is ever sent without your confirmation, and sportsbook bets are always placed by you.
What it detects
One event where exactly one listed outcome must win — a Polymarket winner-take-all event, or Kalshi brackets that cover every possible result. Buy YES on every outcome for under $1, or NO on every outcome for under the payout, and the result is locked in. Events where an unlisted result could win are skipped. On the live dashboard and in the app.
A Kalshi market and a Polymarket market that look like the same real-world event. ArbTrader suggests title-similarity matches for you to inspect; only pairs you confirm are used. In the app.
One game, two sportsbooks: the cheapest price on one team from one book plus the cheapest price on the other team from a different book costs less than $1 combined. Same game, same clock — just priced differently by different bookmakers. In the app, with your own The Odds API key.
Before you pay for this
Nothing on this page is financial, legal, or betting advice. Past spread detection does not guarantee future opportunities, and trading and betting both involve risk of loss — including total loss of amounts wagered or traded.
Pricing
Base finds the spreads and tells you about them. Pro adds an order ticket, so acting on a Kalshi or Polymarket spread is a size, a checkbox, and one click.

FAQ
A spread scanner for prediction markets and sportsbooks, in two parts. Your dashboard at arbtrader.co checks every open Kalshi and Polymarket event for bundles that pay more than they cost after fees, and shows the legs, prices, size and links. The app you run on your own computer does the same in real time and adds cross-platform spreads (on matches you confirm), sportsbook moneylines, Discord alerts, your P&L — and, on Pro, order tickets you confirm.
Both plans scan the same markets, send the same alerts, and run on your own machine. Base ($19.99/month launch price, $30 after Dec 31, 2026) stops at the alert: you get the legs, prices, and a link to each one, and you place the trades yourself. Pro ($24.99/month launch price, $45 after Dec 31, 2026) adds an order ticket to every Kalshi and Polymarket opportunity — pick a size, confirm, and ArbTrader submits both legs for you from your machine. Sportsbook opportunities work the same on both plans: you place those bets yourself.
Never on its own. On Base, no — it reports opportunities and links you to each leg, and you place every trade by hand. On Pro, ArbTrader can submit Kalshi and Polymarket orders, but only when you open the ticket for a specific opportunity, set the size, tick the confirmation, and press Submit. There's no auto-trade setting. Sportsbook bets are never placed by ArbTrader on either plan — sportsbooks don't offer a betting API, and most prohibit automated wagering.
No. ArbTrader is self-hosted: you run it on your own computer or server, and your Kalshi API key and Polymarket wallet key stay there. We never receive, store, or have access to either. That's true on Pro too: the trading-enabled keys Pro uses stay on your machine, and orders go straight from your computer to the exchange.
Just an ArbTrader account for your license. The app shows live prices, so to see real spreads you'll want a Kalshi account and/or a Polymarket wallet address, and a free API key from The Odds API for sportsbook lines. Discord alerts need a webhook URL from a Discord server you control. Every one of these is optional and independent of the others, and you add them in the app’s Accounts & API keys tab. Want to look around first? Try the live demo, or set DEMO_MODE=true to run the app on sample data.
The dashboard re-prices every listed spread about once a minute and sweeps all open events every few minutes, so it can lag the market. The app streams Kalshi and Polymarket order books over WebSocket when configured (sub-second) and re-prices bundles every 15 seconds. Sportsbook odds refresh on a slower, credit-budgeted schedule. Real spreads are rare and close fast; a human confirmation is part of every order by design, and nothing guarantees a fill at the price you saw.
No. ArbTrader is software that surfaces pricing information across platforms and, on Pro, submits orders you've reviewed and confirmed. Whether to trade, and how much, is always your decision and your risk.
Yes, anytime, including during the trial — you won't be charged unless you're still subscribed when it ends. Switch between Base and Pro from Manage billing on your account page. It's a monthly license with no lock-in.
