About Elastics
Elastics is an AI trading operating system for prediction markets that folds research, position building and execution into one terminal. Contracts are scattered across Polymarket, Kalshi and similar venues, the same event often quotes differently, and manual comparison cannot keep pace with news. Elastics translates intent into executable logic through a natural language interface, runs agents on deterministic rules with a full decision trail, and uses Elastics OS to route across venues, aggregate positions and backtest, while orders still go through the user's own accounts.
It sits at the application layer: price discovery, clearing and custody remain with the venues, and it supplies research, signals and order routing, with cross-venue comparison as the core function for retail traders and small quant teams. Execution is bound by each venue's API limits, account permissions and geography, and margin and settlement are still computed separately per platform when positions run in parallel.
Founded in 2025, Elastics was co-founded by Szymon Pawica (formerly Goldman Sachs, ff Venture Capital) and Mateusz Brodowicz (University of Houston mathematician).
On May 5, 2026, Elastics announced a $2M pre-seed round led by Frst, with participation from an ElevenLabs co-founder, an XBTO partner, a scout from a16z, and a RedStone co-founder. The funding will be used to hire AI and quant talent in Poland.
In May 2026, Elastics confirmed that its private beta was live and open for registration; the AI trading assistant targets Hyperliquid and prediction markets, supporting natural-language trading and deterministic Agents automation.
On September 1, 2026, Elastics' privacy policy took effect, naming Elastics Inc. as the entity, including GDPR compliance provisions and designating Jan Czarnocki as EU representative.
In May 2026 Elastics closed an oversubscribed USD 2 million pre-seed round led by Paris-based Frst, with angels including both ElevenLabs co-founders, XBTO partners, an a16z scout and a RedStone co-founder. The Warsaw company is building an AI-native operating system for prediction markets, where users trade in natural language instead of filling order forms.
The core feature is Trade with Words: a user describes a thesis and the system turns that intent into sized, routed and executed orders on Polymarket and Kalshi. Two layers sit around it, Elastics AI for building agents and Elastics OS for running and monitoring strategies, alongside cross-venue mispricing discovery, thesis-based research workspaces and portfolio risk analytics. The team argues retail traders often hold a hundred positions without realising the exposure sits in one narrative, making correlation analysis and hedging suggestions the differentiator. The backdrop helps: Kalshi and Polymarket together traded more than USD 44 billion in 2025, monthly volume approached USD 25.7 billion in March 2026, yet systematic tooling for retail participants remains scarce.
Future strategy and roadmap: Elastics plans to connect Hyperliquid in the second half, widening tradable instruments beyond event contracts, and will introduce volume-based or compute-based fees only after user scale is established.
