What is Polymarket Lens?
Polymarket Lens asks how quoted probabilities compare with eventual outcomes. It groups resolved markets into probability bins, shows a calibration chart and lists questions with large price-to-outcome gaps. It also displays current spread comparisons. The historical probability is reconstructed from a monthly-change field, so the result is an exploratory proxy rather than a clean fixed-horizon forecast dataset.
Who it is for
- Readers learning how probability calibration is measured
- Researchers exploring surprising resolved markets
- Developers studying a small public client-side analytics project

Workflows with Polymarket Lens
Read the calibration chart
Choose a bin, inspect its sample count and compare the observed outcome frequency with the predicted level. Use the plot values directly when interpreting the direction of the gap.
Investigate a surprising result
Open an entry in the resolved-market table and inspect the original question, timeframe and resolution.
Reuse the analysis method
Read the source and replace the monthly-change proxy with timestamped historical observations if your study requires an exact forecast horizon.
Pricing and total cost
Free public dashboard with an MIT-licensed source repository. No account or API key is required for its client-side data requests.
Getting started
Before you start: The reconstructed probability uses final price minus oneMonthPriceChange; that trailing field may include resolution and does not establish an exact one-month forecast horizon.
- Open the dashboard and let the public data load.
- Read Methodology before interpreting the metrics.
- Inspect the calibration chart and per-bin counts.
- Open individual resolved markets from the surprise table.
- Use the repository if you want to reproduce or change the computation.
Useful links
What to check
- The reconstructed probability uses final price minus oneMonthPriceChange; that trailing field may include resolution and does not establish an exact one-month forecast horizon.
- Markets below $5,000 volume and those without meaningful price change are excluded, which changes the sample.
- The generated overconfidence and underconfidence labels can conflict with the displayed gap direction; read the actual bin values.
- A wide spread can reflect low liquidity and is not by itself evidence of a profitable trade.
