What Fireplace does
Fireplace is a Hong Kong-based professional trading terminal purpose-built for prediction markets, operating exclusively through its self-serve web platform at pro.fireplace.gg. The core product, Fireplace Pro, aggregates prediction markets, liquidity, and execution across multiple prediction-market venues — primarily Polymarket — and routes orders across those venues via smart-order-routing to deliver institutional-grade execution. The product surface has expanded rapidly since the January 27, 2026 public launch to include Fireplace Rewards (a liquidity-provision rewards system with daily APY visibility), Fireplace Watchlist (cross-timeframe portfolio monitoring), Fireplace Disputes (tracking of UMA DVM voting and resolution audit logs), a News Feed (market intelligence and trending markets), and a Portfolio module with wallet connectivity and Polymarket account linking.
The technical stack combines cross-venue market aggregation, real-time data infrastructure, institutional-grade execution, and authentication through in-house Enclave Money infrastructure supporting passkeys, Google, and X/Twitter login alongside wallet-based access. UMA's dispute resolution oracle is integrated directly into the trading workflow, surfacing contested-market status and resolution steps as a first-class UI concern rather than a back-office artifact. The platform is built for traders who require professional-grade tooling — orderbooks with full bid/ask depth and USD-denominated ladders, positions, and execution — to operate on prediction markets that were previously accessible only through venue-native retail interfaces.
Revenue mechanics are not publicly disclosed but are described as transaction-fee-based on trading activity and liquidity provision; pricing tiers, take-rates, and any subscription model are absent from the materials. The company is privately held, founded by Sumer Malhotra alongside co-founders, and currently operates with a team of 1–10. It closed a $1.5M pre-seed round in February 2026 led by Frachtis with White Star Capital and angel investors via Syndicate rounds on Legion and Echo. Customer concentration is highly distributed: no named enterprise logos exist, and the user base comprises 30,000+ professional and active traders plus prediction-market enthusiasts accumulated through the launch waitlist and community-driven referrals across global, English-language social channels.
