Questions About Polycopy Research

What is Polycopy Research?

Polycopy Research publishes original data-driven reports about the Polymarket ecosystem, powered by our proprietary data warehouse that tracks 2M+ enriched trades across 5,000+ wallets from the Polymarket leaderboard.

What data does Polycopy use for its research reports?

Reports are built from the Polycopy data warehouse, which ingests and enriches trades from Polymarket. This includes trader P&L, win rates, category-specific performance, Copy Score signals, and position-level data across sports, politics, crypto, and dozens of other market categories.

How often are new research reports published?

Polycopy publishes 1-2 research reports per month, timed around quarterly performance reviews, major market events, and new feature launches like Copy Score updates.

Can I use Polycopy research findings for my own trading?

These reports are for information only. They describe historical public data. They are not financial advice, not a recommendation to trade, and not a suggestion of where to allocate capital. Copy Score is an informational signal about a trader’s finished record after estimated copy costs. You should not rely on a report or on Copy Score as the sole basis for any trading decision.

Is Polycopy affiliated with Polymarket?

No. Polycopy is an independent third-party tool and a verified member of the Polymarket Builders Program. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Polymarket.
