# Introduction

PolyPoll is a free paper trading prediction market.

The current product is built around:

* **POLL points**, not USDC
* **Offchain paper wallets**, not gas-heavy trading
* **LS-LSMR pricing**, mirroring the 2.5.2 contract math in paper mode
* **AI-assisted market creation** for descriptions, answer options, tags, and images
* **Leaderboard competition** based on bankroll, P\&L, and market activity

## What paper mode keeps

* Real Yes / No and multi-option markets
* Dynamic odds that move when people trade
* Price quotes, slippage, positions, claims, and creator fees
* Resolution criteria, creator/admin resolution, and market history

## What paper mode removes

* No USDC deposits
* No Base gas requirement
* No pre-market crowdfunding or graduation flow
* No onchain claim transaction

## Key numbers

* **Starting bankroll:** 10,000 POLL
* **Daily refill floor:** 1,000 POLL
* **Daily refill target:** 2,500 POLL
* **Creator publish bonus:** 100 POLL
* **Trade fee:** 1.5%
* **Creator fee share:** 20% of the trade fee

## Product loop

1. Sign in with email, Google, or wallet.
2. Get a paper bankroll.
3. Create a market or open an existing one.
4. Buy and sell shares as the crowd reprices the odds.
5. Resolve the market and claim 1 point per winning share.

## AI in the create flow

PolyPoll's creator assistant can:

* rewrite ambiguous titles into clearer market language
* generate **Resolution criteria** and **Background**
* generate multiple-choice answer options
* suggest topic tags
* fetch a relevant cover image from web-grounded search

## 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://polypoll.gitbook.io/polypoll-docs/overview/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.
