Gimme Fast

Polymarket settles every trade on Polygon. Gimme Fast reads those trades directly from the blockchain — no middleman, no rate limits, no dependency on Polymarket’s API. We run our own Polygon nodes, decode every CTF Exchange event, and serve enriched data through a REST API and WebSocket feed.

Why Gimme Fast?

Own infrastructure

Dedicated Polygon nodes running Erigon. Your data pipeline doesn’t depend on anyone else’s uptime.

Real-time streaming

WebSocket subscriptions push trades as they land on-chain. Subscribe to all markets or filter by token.

Complete data

Markets, trades, OHLCV candles, orderbook snapshots, pricing — one API for everything.

Built for speed

Rust from top to bottom. Sub-millisecond response times. Optional zlib compression saves ~60% bandwidth on WebSocket.
