Show HN: Turn any prediction into ranked Kalshi/Polymarket trades [video]

I realized that sometimes I'm pretty good at making random guesses about the future. (I.E, I think OpenAI will beat Anthropic in the short term, etc...)

However, I'm bad at converting these guesses into actual market plays I can profit from.

As such, I wanted to make a tool that connects to the right APIs and launches a swarm of agent experts to generate related plays based on your prediction.

The very first super shitty V0 MPV just has Polymarket/Kalshi bets, but I will be adding a more complex agentic harness, api sources for stocks/ETFs/options.

In the future, I'd imagine this can give you recs for all those, with some degree of certainty. Ideally, this allows lazy but intelligent retail investors to make money.

For now, the project is in open-source format; either run it yourself or send me an email at [email protected] if you'd be interested in using this commercially once I get further down the line.

Cool concept. The gap between having a directional view and finding the right contracts to express it is real, especially when Kalshi and Polymarket have hundreds of markets. The agent approach is interesting but curious how it handles correlated markets - e.g. if you think OpenAI beats Anthropic, that could map to multiple overlapping contracts with different edge profiles.
