Polaris is a market data platform for frontier venues across crypto derivatives, RWAs, and compute markets. It captures exchange-native events at the source and exposes both raw payloads and standardised schemas so you can build research and production pipelines without rewriting venue-specific logic. If you are new to Polaris, do not start by reading every page. Follow one path: get access, choose a market, download one file, then branch into the schema or endpoint docs you actually need.

Quickstart

Go from API key to your first snapshot download.

Choose the right data

Compare snapshots, REST endpoints, standardised formats, and raw payloads.

Connecting

Set up authentication and reuse the same API key across surfaces.

Catalog

Discover supported exchanges, assets, and time bounds.

Snapshots

List and download canonical daily historical files.

API overview

Review the main REST surfaces and jump into smaller endpoint pages.

Standardised formats

Understand the cross-venue event envelope used across Polaris datasets.

Start here

  1. Run the Quickstart.
  2. Confirm auth in Connecting.
  3. Validate market coverage in Catalog.
  4. Choose between Snapshots and the API.

What Polaris helps you do

  • Query recent trades, events, and OHLCV over REST.
  • Download bulk historical snapshots for standardized datasets.
  • Inspect raw exchange-native payloads when you need replayability or custom parsing.
  • Use the same API key across the REST API and SDKs.
