Most prediction-market traders lose money and can't tell where. Virgil can. Connect a Polymarket wallet or a Kalshi API key and Virgil rebuilds your real P&L from your full trade history, shows which categories carry your account and which drain it, and flags the whales moving markets while you sleep. Wallet connections are read-only: it never trades or touches your funds. YOUR REAL P&L (Virgil PRO) Realised and unrealised P&L, win rate and cost basis, rebuilt from every trade — including the resolved positions the exchanges stop showing once they settle. The numbers reconcile to the cent. KNOW WHERE YOU LOSE MONEY (Virgil PRO) Per-category performance across politics, sports, crypto and macro, your best and worst trades, and the biases behind them: the longshots you keep buying, the side you always take. WHALE ALERTS ON BOTH EXCHANGES (Virgil PRO) Unusual positioning flagged from real volume, liquidity and price on Polymarket and Kalshi — the size, the move it caused, and how long until the market resolves. Every alert links straight to the market. MARKET PULSE (Virgil PRO) The whole market in one view: 24-hour volume, the hottest sectors and the biggest movers on each exchange, refreshed live. A BRIEF TWICE A DAY, DEEP DIVES ON DEMAND (Virgil PRO) A short written read on what moved, every morning and afternoon, and a researched breakdown of any market with its sources listed so you can check the work. BOTH EXCHANGES, ONE PORTFOLIO (Virgil PRO) Polymarket and Kalshi positions combined, in one place, with one set of numbers. ONE LOGIN, EVERY DEVICE An optional account — Sign in with Apple or email — keeps Virgil PRO on every device and puts you first in line for Virgil Web. Every feature works without one. WHAT VIRGIL DOES NOT DO Virgil is read-only analytics. It does not place trades, hold funds, custody assets or move money, and it has no payment rails other than Apple's for its own subscription. It is not financial advice. Kalshi credentials stay in the iOS Keychain on your device and are never sent to our servers. SUBSCRIPTION VIRGIL PRO SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED. Every feature below is part of Virgil PRO, an auto-renewing subscription at $19.99/month with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. Nothing is sold separately, and there is no free tier beyond the trial. Full terms at the bottom of this page. Virgil PRO — $19.99/month, auto-renewing, with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings. Privacy Policy: https://www.virgilterminal.com/privacy Terms of Use: https://www.virgilterminal.com/terms
