Reading risk from where it's priced

The problem

Geopolitical risk moves markets — but it's hard to read. Broad markets like oil or gold move for a thousand reasons at once, so a price swing rarely tells you why. And sentiment or headline-volume tools measure what's being talked about, not what's actually likely.

What we built

CausalAlpha reads Polymarket's geopolitics universe — contracts that each price one specific outcome, like a strike, a ceasefire, or an escalation. We score every contract into a risk signal, aggregate those into a per-theater risk pulse, and publish a daily plain-language briefing of what moved and why it matters.

What makes it different

The method behind it

Our team's background is in causal inference and econometrics, and that rigor runs under every label on the board. But the edge isn't a black box — it's the clean signal: one contract prices one question, so the read starts from something far less noisy than broad markets. See how to read the board.
