A 22-year-old college student in shenzhen reportedly made $14,700 in one month with a 900-yuan redmi phone. his parents still think he’s spending all his time preparing for exams. here’s what the phone does. every 30 minutes, it opens six chinese news apps, scans the latest headlines, takes screenshots, and sends them to claude for analysis. claude compares that information with polymarket odds and suggests potential betting opportunities. the entire workflow runs without writing a single line of code. it’s powered by phonedriver, an open-source tool that lets ai see your phone’s screen and operate it like a human. you simply describe the task in plain english, and it does the rest. the edge comes from timing. news often appears on chinese platforms like weibo and toutiao 20 to 50 minutes before english speaking traders fully react on polymarket. that small window can create an opportunity before the market catches up. some of those apps block web scrapers, but phonedriver doesn’t scrape data. it simply looks at what’s on the screen, just like a person would, then taps and swipes automatically.
