I am curious how prediction markets like polymarket and kalshi work behind the scenes. I assume it's more like stock options than sports betting.

Is there something like a market maker to help provide liquidity?

Is it setting probabilities/prices using something like black-scholes?

How would you design a very simple prediction market MVP?
