Find Mispriced Polymarket Bets with AI News Analysis
Automatically scan the top active Polymarket markets every 2 hours, cross-reference political coverage from major news sources, and get Slack alerts only when the AI identifies a potential 10%+ mispricing.
What This Workflow Does
Every 2 hours, this workflow fetches the most active Polymarket prediction markets, then cross-references coverage from NYT, Fox News, and Tagesschau. An AI model analyzes the gap between market pricing and news sentiment to surface potential "free money" opportunities — markets where the crowd price appears significantly misaligned with available evidence.
The Pipeline
- Fetch Active Markets: Pulls the top active Polymarket markets via their public API
- Cross-Reference News: Scrapes political coverage from NYT, Fox News, and Tagesschau for each market topic
- AI Analysis: Compares market odds against news evidence to estimate fair probability
- Alert on Mispricing: If the AI finds a 10%+ gap, sends a detailed Slack alert with the rationale
Why Multiple News Sources
Using ideologically diverse sources (left, right, and international) reduces bias in the AI's fair-value estimate. A signal that shows up across all three sources is stronger than one that appears in only one.
Setup
- Click "Use template" on this page
- Connect your Slack workspace and select the channel for alerts
- The workflow runs automatically every 2 hours — no further configuration needed
- Optionally adjust the mispricing threshold (default: 10%)
Best Practices
- Not financial advice — this is an informational tool. Always do your own research before trading.
- Review the rationale — the AI explains its reasoning in each Slack alert. Read it critically.
- Timing matters — markets move fast around breaking news. Act on alerts promptly or they may already be priced in.
- Adjust threshold — lower the 10% threshold for more alerts, raise it for fewer but higher-confidence signals.
