Question 1

What counts as a whale trade?

Accepted Answer

Polywhaler follows the largest trades on Polymarket and Kalshi, the size of bet that usually comes from a serious trader rather than a casual one. Positions that size often move before the news does, so watching them is the fastest way to read where the market is headed.

Question 2

How fast do trades show up in the feed?

Accepted Answer

Trades stream straight from the exchanges' order flow with a median feed latency of about 30 seconds. No refresh-and-pray, no delayed data.

Question 3

What is the insider score?

Accepted Answer

Every trade gets a 0 to 100 score based on its size, the odds it was placed at, its timing relative to the event, and the market context. A large bet at long odds shortly before a resolution is the canonical red flag.

Question 4

What do I get for free?

Accepted Answer

The live whale trade feed, watchlists, the whale leaderboard, the suspicious events feed, interactive market charts, the world map, and the Bitcoin forecast. No card required.

Question 5

What is the difference between Pro and Quant?

Accepted Answer

Pro ($4.92/month billed annually, or $9/month) adds full access to Orca, custom Discord and Telegram alerts, full whale profiles, chart overlays, The Prophet daily newspaper, and CSV/JSON export. Quant is built for analysts and adds the REST API, real-time webhooks, full historical trade data, and bulk exports.

Question 6

Which markets does Polywhaler cover?

Accepted Answer

The whale feed tracks Polymarket and Kalshi, the world's two largest prediction markets. Through Orca you can also paper-trade and place live orders on both.

Question 7

Can I cancel anytime?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel from your settings at any time, and your plan simply runs to the end of the billing period. Card and crypto payments are accepted.
