What OrcaLayer does
Polymarket analytics site and data API built on its own index of trades read from the Polygon chain. It ranks wallets by profit with reward farmers, high-frequency bots and Polymarket's router contracts filtered out, marks a wallet “Smart Money” when it has a 55%+ win rate over 10+ resolved markets and positive P&L, and shows each market's smart-money split, wallet track records and a live feed of large trades. Wallet pages, the leaderboard and market pages are free to browse without an account. Pro at $9.99 a month adds Telegram and Discord whale alerts and a watchlist; Premium at $19.99 adds the API, and Business at $99 adds webhooks and a commercial licence. You trade on Polymarket yourself.
Features- Own index of Polymarket fills from Polygon, with splits, merges and redemptions tracked and NegRisk markets corrected
- Leaderboard by profit, win rate or profit factor for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days or all time, by category
- Filters that drop farmers (average buy above 95¢), bots (500,000+ trades under $20 on average) and Polymarket's router contracts
- “Smart Money” and stricter “Proven” marks, with the rules published on a methodology page
- Market pages showing which side the tracked wallets hold
- The base numbers hold up. On Nov 11, 2026 the top three of OrcaLayer's all-time leaderboard, Theo4 at +$22.05 million, swisstony at +$18.48 million and Fredi9999 at +$16.62 million, matched Polymarket's own all-time profit leaderboard to the ten thousand dollars. Below that the two lists part: Polymarket's fourth-placed account, at +$13.3 million, is not in OrcaLayer's default view, which hides farmers and bots, and OrcaLayer's fourth, DEEDDIT, shows +$7.47 million. That is the point of the product, but the filters are switched on by default, so the board is a selection and not the whole field.
- The filters themselves are simple and published, which makes them easy to judge. A farmer is any wallet whose average buy price is above 95¢; a bot is a wallet with more than 500,000 trades averaging under $20; “Smart Money” is a 55% market win rate over ten resolved markets with positive lifetime P&L. “Proven” is stricter, comparing each entry price with how the market resolved, with a significance threshold and at least 20 events. The methodology page has a section on what the site does not claim, and the footer says past results do not predict future ones.
- The marketing around the data is looser than the data. The home page greets visitors with “Your win rate is just 7.9%” against whales, without saying what the figure measures. Counts drift from page to page: 203K smart whales on the home page against 180K+ on the pricing page, and 5.1M+ markets on the home page against 2M+ on pricing and 1.4M+ in the FAQ. The domain was registered on Mar 23, 2026.
