PredictionToolkit
What is Polymarket Institute?
The Institute studies prediction markets as information institutions. Its Data section links public API and dataset documentation and illustrates batch retrieval of market price history. About and governance material explain how research direction and publication are organized; research updates carry publications and program announcements.
The initiative is funded by Polymarket and states that it operates with scientific independence. Its Science Fellowship describes a 1-year program supporting 12 fellows with US$10000 grants, subject to selection. Planned partnerships and an inaugural prediction-markets conference remain future initiatives, not completed programs.
