Which is cheaper, Polyvision or Polycopy?

The subscriptions are nearly identical ($29/month vs $30/month as of July 2026, both with 7-day trials). The difference is per-trade fees: Polycopy charges 1% taker / 0.5% maker on trades executed through it, so the more you copy, the more you pay. Polyvision charges no trading fees because it doesn't execute trades.

Can I use Polyvision and Polycopy together?

Yes, and it's a sensible stack: use Polyvision to decide which traders are genuinely skilled (true P&L, risk metrics, red flags, 0–10 score), then use Polycopy to mirror the ones that pass. Vetting and execution are complementary.

Polyvision vs Polycopy

Q: Are Polyvision and Polycopy competitors?

Partly. Both help you copy trade on Polymarket, but they solve different halves of the problem. Polyvision is an analysis layer — it vets traders and scores them 0–10 without ever touching your funds. Polycopy is an execution platform — it mirrors trades into your Polymarket account, manually or automatically. Many traders use one for vetting and the other for execution.

Q: Do I need to connect my wallet?

For Polycopy, yes — executing trades in your account requires wallet access. For Polyvision, never — it only reads public on-chain data, so there's no wallet connection, no approvals, and no custody risk from using it.

The honest answer up front: these tools solve different halves of copy trading. One tells you who deserves your money. The other moves it. Here's exactly where they differ — and when you'd want both.

Full disclosure: Polyvision is our product, and Polycopy is a genuinely good one. Every claim below is factual as of July 2026 and verifiable on their site — where they're better, we say so.

Where Polycopy is better

If you want your copies executed for you, Polycopy simply does something Polyvision doesn't. The one-tap Copy flow is clean, Auto Copy bots can mirror a chosen trader hands-free with your rules, and the free tier is a legitimately useful on-ramp. If your bottleneck is execution speed and convenience, Polycopy wins.

Where Polyvision is better

Depth of vetting. Polycopy scores the trades scrolling through your feed; Polyvision interrogates the trader behind them. A full analysis breaks out true P&L including redeems, win rate in the context of odds taken, risk-adjusted returns, drawdown, concentration, and the red flags that make a "profitable" wallet uncopyable — skill versus luck, distilled to a 0–10 score. That's the decision that determines whether copy trading makes or loses you money: roughly 84% of Polymarket traders lose money, and the raw leaderboard points at the wrong ones.

Cost structure for active copiers. The subscriptions differ by a dollar, but Polycopy adds 1% taker / 0.5% maker on every executed trade. Copy $2,000 of volume a month and that's an extra ~$20–30 on top of the $30 subscription — real money at exactly the moment you're trying to eke out edge. Polyvision is flat: $29, no per-trade take, because we never touch the trade.

No wallet connection, ever. Polyvision reads public on-chain data only. Nothing to connect, nothing to approve, nothing that can be drained. If that's a hard requirement for you, the choice makes itself.

Agents and automation. Full REST API and a 17-tool MCP server, so Claude, Cursor, or your own scripts can vet wallets programmatically.

The verdict

Not either/or. Polyvision is the research desk; Polycopy is the trading desk. If you'll only pay for one: choose Polycopy if you just want frictionless mirroring and accept its feed scores; choose Polyvision if you believe (as the data says) that who you copy matters more than how fast you copy them. The strongest setup vets with Polyvision and executes with Polycopy — the combined ~$59/month is cheap insurance against copying a lucky gambler efficiently.
