Converge

Converge, run by the operator behind converge.markets, is a Telegram bot, @ConvergeMarketsBot, paired with a browser dashboard that scans Polymarket and Kalshi orderbooks for the same event priced two different ways. Each signal carries both prices, a confidence score built from depth, freshness and spread width, and the size the order book can actually absorb before the edge thins.

The tool does not place trades. A trader gets an alert, clicks through to Polymarket and to Kalshi, and fills both legs by hand, which is why Converge sits in the analytics and alerts category rather than among order-routing builders. Its own FAQ frames the edges as structural mispricings between a US retail base on Kalshi and a crypto-native base on Polymarket, not split-second races against faster bots.

A trader subscribes on converge.markets, links a Telegram account to @ConvergeMarketsBot, and starts receiving alerts the moment the scanner flags a cross-venue discrepancy. The Starter tier adds a browser dashboard with filters for minimum edge, minimum capital and category, so a trader can mute alerts below their own threshold instead of reading every signal that fires. Pro subscribers can also point the feed at a webhook and pull signals into their own execution scripts.

The order itself never touches Converge. Every alert links straight to the order form on Polymarket and on Kalshi, and the trader places both legs from their own venue accounts using their own funds. Converge holds no capital, custodies nothing, and, per its own site, does not execute on a trader's behalf; it sits as a signal layer outside the two venues it watches.

Because the tool reads live order book depth rather than a stale mid-market quote, the price shown in an alert is close to what a trader will actually fill at. The operator's own numbers describe most live edges as thin and slow to resolve, with capital tied to a filled leg staying committed until the underlying market settles.

• Confidence-scored signals

  Each alert carries a numeric confidence score built from order book depth, quote freshness and spread width, keeping low-quality noise out of the Telegram feed.

• Depth shown per alert

  Every signal states how many contracts the book can absorb at the quoted price, so a trader can size into an edge before it thins out.

• Personal alert filters

  Starter subscribers set minimum edge, minimum capital and category filters, cutting the feed down to arbs worth their attention instead of every discrepancy found.

• Webhook delivery for automation

  Pro subscribers can route signals to their own endpoint instead of reading Telegram, letting a trading script react to an edge without a human in the loop.

Manual cross-venue arbitrage traders

Traders comfortable clicking through two separate venues and filling both legs by hand get a ready-made signal feed instead of watching order books themselves.

Traders funding long-dated positions

Anyone willing to have capital sit in a resolved-later market for months gets access to structural edges the operator says persist longer than HFT-speed spreads.

Semi-automated execution traders

Pro subscribers with their own scripts can pull signals through a webhook and build their own fill logic around Converge's confidence and depth scoring.

Traders who want noise filtered out

Category, edge and capital filters on the dashboard suit traders who would rather see a short list of qualifying arbs than a raw signal firehose.

Converge charges a subscription, $79/mo+, rather than taking a cut of routed volume, so the cost is fixed no matter how much or how little a trader ends up executing on Polymarket or Kalshi. That structure puts the burden on the trader to find enough qualifying edges to justify the subscription in a given month, since the fee runs whether the feed is quiet or busy.

The bigger cost sits outside the subscription. The operator's own FAQ describes locked-up capital as the norm, with resolution often months away, so a trader should budget for tied-up funds on top of whatever Converge charges to access the feed.

• Signals never touch trader funds, since execution happens manually on each venue's own order form.
• Confidence and depth scoring cuts down on low-quality alerts compared with a raw price-difference feed.
• Filters let a subscriber set their own minimum edge and capital thresholds instead of reading every signal.
• Webhook delivery on the Pro tier gives traders who already run execution scripts a way to skip manual Telegram reading.
• The operator is direct about most live edges being small and long-dated rather than overselling the opportunity.

• The tool does not execute trades, so a trader still carries the risk of filling only one leg of an arb.
• Capital tied to a resolved-later position stays locked for as long as the underlying market takes to settle, which the operator's own FAQ pegs at many months for most live arbs.
• The subscription is billed annually regardless of how many qualifying signals actually appear.
• It only watches Polymarket and Kalshi, so an edge appearing on another venue never reaches the feed.

Converge never holds trader funds. Every alert routes to Polymarket's and Kalshi's own order forms, and the trader's capital never passes through Converge's infrastructure, so a compromise of the bot or dashboard cannot touch a wallet directly.

The operational exposure sits elsewhere: because execution is manual and split across two venues, a trader can end up with only one leg filled if a price moves between clicking the first link and the second, and capital committed to a resolved-later arb is illiquid for as long as that market takes to settle.

It suits a trader who already understands prediction market arbitrage, is comfortable manually filling two legs, and can afford to have capital sit through a long resolution window. It is not for anyone expecting the tool to execute, size or manage a position on their behalf.

• What is Converge?

  Converge is a Telegram bot, @ConvergeMarketsBot, and browser dashboard that scans Polymarket and Kalshi orderbooks and alerts subscribers when the same event is priced differently on each venue.

• Is Converge safe to use?

  Converge does not hold funds or execute trades, so custody risk stays with the trader's own Polymarket and Kalshi accounts; the operational risk is a partially filled arb or capital locked until resolution.

• How much does Converge cost?

  Converge is a paid subscription, $79/mo+, billed annually rather than charged as a share of trading volume, so the cost runs regardless of how many signals a trader acts on.

• Does Converge execute trades automatically?

  No. The operator's own site states Converge does not execute on a trader's behalf; each alert links to both venues and the trader places each leg manually.

• What are the alternatives to Converge?

  Other Polymarket builders route order flow directly rather than sending arbitrage alerts, so a trader wanting execution rather than signals would look at a routing-focused builder instead.

• How does Converge find arbitrage opportunities?

  It reads live order book depth on Polymarket and Kalshi, matches equivalent events across the two venues, and scores each discrepancy for confidence based on depth, freshness and spread width.

• How long does Converge tie up trading capital?

  The operator's own FAQ describes most live arbs as long-dated, with capital committed to a leg staying locked until the underlying market resolves, sometimes many months out.
