# Execution Infrastructure for Prediction Markets

## What is PolyGoat?

PolyGoat is a **real-time execution system** designed to capture short-lived pricing inefficiencies in prediction markets. It removes the barrier between intent and execution — giving any user access to infrastructure that previously required dedicated engineering teams.

## Not a trading bot

PolyGoat is an **execution layer** — a system that sits between the user and the market, handling all the complexity that makes high-frequency prediction market trading inaccessible to most people.

## Execution is the edge

> "PolyGoat doesn't predict whether BTC goes up or down. It detects the 8-second window where the market hasn't decided yet — and enters before it does."

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.polygoatbot.com/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
