# Introduction

Recon is **the all‑in‑one data‑driven platform for prediction markets**. Built on top of Polymarket, it helps you **track smart money**, **discover top traders**, and **systematically copy or learn from their strategies** instead of making isolated, ad‑hoc bets.

Recon is:

* **Powered by real trading activity** – all analytics and insights are derived from live prediction market behavior.
* **Designed to maximize your profit** – rankings, alerts, and tools are built to help you consistently find and exploit high‑EV opportunities.
* **Data-Driven** – with tools like **Trader Smart Scores**, **wallet‑tracking**, an **Insider Finder**, and (soon) **copy‑trading** to help you act on that information.

#### Core Concepts

* **Trader Smart Scores**\
  A proprietary 6‑factor algorithm that provides a **360° evaluation of trader performance** and surfaces a score on a 0–100 scale.
* **Wallet‑Tracking**\
  Track transactions for any user by category (e.g. politics, crypto, sports, finance) and receive alerts through Recon’s Telegram‑based alerting system.
* **Insider Finder**\
  A detection tool that **flags suspicious buys from new accounts** so you can investigate potential “insider‑like” activity.
* **Copy‑Trading (Coming Soon)**\
  A planned feature that will let you automatically mirror the trades or strategies of selected high‑performing traders, with your own risk settings.

#### Who Recon Is For

* **Retail prediction market traders** who want to follow “sharps” instead of guessing.
* **Power users and quants** who want structured stats, alerts, and rankings.
* **Creators / public traders** who want to showcase performance and build a following.

#### What Recon Is *Not*

Recon gives you **data, rankings, alerts, and tools**—it does *not* guarantee profits or provide financial advice. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Always size your risk appropriately and do your own research before trading.
