Pull Polymarket ticks.

Tick-by-tick Polymarket history — every quote, every book update, every trade — as clean, replayable parquet/CSV bundles and a REST API. We run the dual-region, sequence-audited capture plant; you skip the sockets, dedup, gap-fill and storage. The market you ignored last month is already on disk — we never stopped watching.

02where your hours go

Every week on ingestion is a week off your research.

Your edge compounds in strategies, models and papers — none of it compounds in a websocket babysitter. Running your own capture is a standing job that returns nothing to the thing that actually makes money. We already run it; the hours stay yours.

Sockets to babysit

Keep live websockets up around the clock — reconnect, resequence, alert on drops, forever.

on tickfoundry · Dual-region collectors run it. You pull finished files.
Dedup, gap-fill, normalize

Parse the raw feed, de-duplicate, cross-fill gaps and chase schema drift before a single backtest runs.

on tickfoundry · Clean columnar parquet (CSV twin), sequence-audited, ready to load.
Storage and on-call to own

Stand up storage, retention, monitoring and a 3am page for a system that isn't your product.

on tickfoundry · It's our archive — you hold nothing but the days you pulled.
Coverage you guessed at

A live feed only records what you were watching — last month's market you ignored is gone for good.

on tickfoundry · We capture the whole venue continuously, so it's already on disk when you change your mind.
One flat plan covers the whole venue — reach for any market·day when you need it, not before.

03why this exists

The public API forgets. We don't.

Polymarket's feed is real-time only — once a book update scrolls past, it's gone. Past the standing job of capturing it cleanly, what's left is fidelity — resolution, completeness, depth, replay. Here's the line-by-line difference.

06faq
What exactly do I get?
One flat plan that roams the whole venue. Explorer ($89/mo) pulls L1 + trades + 10-level L2 on a personal-use license, daily, via dashboard or REST API — 15 downloads/day. Premium ($199/mo) adds the full 25-level L2 ladder, no rate limits, the Binance + Chainlink spot feeds and SFTP. Enterprise adds raw websocket atoms, hourly cadence and a commercial / redistribution license. Free gets you 5 series·days to validate the schema first.
How far back does history go?
Tick and book capture has run continuously since 2026-05-11. Trades go much deeper: onchain settlement gives full trade history reaching ~3 years back, to each market's inception. We start clean and accumulate — no synthetic backfill or gaps to paper over.
Is there an API?
Yes — a REST API on Explorer and up (a thin Python SDK is coming soon). List the catalog, request a unit·day, poll the staging job and pull a presigned URL. Mint your key in the dashboard; it's shown once. Free is dashboard-download only.
What's the rate limit?
Explorer is fair-use: 15 downloads/day and 60 API requests/min — each download is a full series·day bundle. Premium lifts the cap entirely: unlimited downloads and 600 req/min. Enterprise limits are negotiated per contract.
Personal vs commercial use?
Explorer and Premium are personal-use: build models, write papers, trade your own book. Reselling, redistributing or embedding the data in a product you ship needs the commercial + redistribution license on Enterprise.
Do you have other venues or assets?
Polymarket is live now, full depth. Premium and Enterprise also bundle the Binance + Chainlink spot (RTDS) feeds for spot-versus-prediction correlation work. Kalshi and Hyperliquid are on the roadmap.
What about gaps?
Two redundant collectors in separate regions capture the same feed. Sequence numbers are audited mechanically and gaps are cross-filled from the second collector.
Do founder discounts really last?
Yes. Your 25% discount is locked for the life of the subscription — across price rises and tier changes. First 50 seats on Explorer and Premium.
