predict.matched-pairs

Cross-venue equivalent-market pairs for arbitrage / relative-value spotting. We fuzzy-match open Polymarket vs Kalshi markets by title-token overlap and return candidate pairs with both venues' YES prices and the implied-probability spread (Polymarket YES minus Kalshi YES). Tune with minScore (0-1 title-similarity floor) and limit. Heuristic — a high score is a strong candidate, not a guaranteed identical contract. Read-only, keyless. No public source maps these directly; the pairing is derived by 2s.io.

Overview

The matched pairs API is a pay-per-call predict endpoint built for AI agents and autonomous software. Cross-venue equivalent-market pairs for arbitrage / relative-value spotting.

There is no signup and no API key. An agent (or any HTTP client) hits the endpoint, receives an x402 "402 Payment Required" challenge, signs a sub-cent USDC payment on Base or Solana, and retries — the data comes back on the paid request. That makes it a drop-in matched pairs data source for an agent tool-use loop, an MCP host, or a backend that needs predict data on demand without onboarding to yet another vendor portal.

Code samples

cURLbash
# 1. Probe with no auth → 402 envelope with PaymentRequirements
curl -sS 'https://2s.io/api/predict/matched-pairs?limit=1&minScore=0'

# 2. Sign + retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE:
curl -sS 'https://2s.io/api/predict/matched-pairs?limit=1&minScore=0' \
  -H 'PAYMENT-SIGNATURE: <base64-json-payload>'

# Or use the canonical runner (handles probe → sign → retry):
#   EVM_PRIVATE_KEY=0x... node --env-file=.env.local \
#     --experimental-strip-types scripts/x402-pay.ts \
#     'https://2s.io/api/predict/matched-pairs?limit=1&minScore=0'

// 1. Add @2sio/mcp to your MCP host config (Claude Desktop example below).
//    EVM_PRIVATE_KEY funds x402 payments per call.

FAQ

Do I need an API key to use the matched pairs API?
No. predict.matched-pairs is x402-native — there is no signup and no API key. Your client makes the call, receives a 402 with payment requirements, signs a USDC payment, and retries. Funds come from a wallet you control.
How much does the matched pairs API cost?
$0.0048 USDC per call, charged per request. There are no monthly fees, seats, or minimums — you pay only for the calls you make.
Can I try the matched pairs API for free first?
Yes. Add ?trial=1 (or the header X-2s-Trial: 1) to get a free real call per endpoint per hour, so you can verify the response shape before wiring payment.
Which networks and tokens are supported?
USDC on Base (via EIP-3009 transferWithAuthorization) or Solana (SPL transfer), using the open x402 payment protocol.
How do I call predict.matched-pairs from an AI agent or MCP host?
Use @2sio/sdk (TypeScript), 2sio (Python), or the @2sio/mcp server for any MCP host — each handles the probe → sign → retry loop for you. See the code samples on this page.
