From the community

What developers are saying

Was scraping Polymarket manually for weeks. Switched to PolyTest and had 3 months of BTC Up/Down data in my pipeline within an hour. Wish I found this sooner.

Quant trader

The orderbook depth data is legit — most APIs only give you mid price. Being able to replay the full book on 5-min markets completely changed how I test my bots.

Priya M.

Algo developer

Told Cursor (and could've used Claude Code, OpenClaw, or Codex) to build me a Polymarket trading bot and pointed it at the PolyTest SDK. Had a working backtester with real orderbook data running in one afternoon. The TypeScript types are chef's kiss.
