Bookmap is the heatmap benchmark.
EdgeDepth remembers the market for you.
Bookmap is a mature desktop platform for visualizing order flow and trading through supported connections, and it earned its reputation. EdgeDepth runs in the browser and makes a different bet: we record the market continuously, server-side, so you can replay any recent moment on any recorded Binance pair - including ones you never watched - and search the latest 415 days in plain English.

SIDE BY SIDE
Two serious heatmaps, then two different product bets.
Bookmap is built for mature visualization, execution, connectivity and add-ons. EdgeDepth combines native per-symbol BBO and an ultra-high-definition live depth heatmap with a multi-source liquidation display, then connects continuously recorded Binance history to research and replay.
| Capability | EDGEDEPTH | BOOKMAP |
|---|---|---|
| Live heatmap and flow | The browser terminal is a full live heatmap, not a replay shell. Native per-symbol BBO, an ultra-high-definition GPU order-book depth heatmap, real-time follow mode, DOM, tape, footprint views, big-trade bubbles and notional-sized forced-liquidation markers at about 180 FPS. | The category benchmark: a highly configurable historical order-book heatmap, volume dots, volume delta, profiles and real-time order-flow tools at the vendor-stated 40 frames per second. |
| Liquidation intelligence | Modeled pressure, real positions and realized events stay distinct. A universal candle-derived liquidation field on every market, modeled OI/positioning rails, covered real Hyperliquid open positions at exchange-reported liquidation prices, actual leverage filters, a visible coverage badge and confirmed forced-liquidation markers. | Bookmap lists a Liquidation Indicator in its crypto feature set alongside heatmap, volume dots, CVD, profiles and other order-flow tools. |
| Capture model | We already recorded it. You never do. 847 Binance USDT-M crypto and TradFi perpetuals, plus every Hyperliquid perpetual captured live server-side. Public replay currently covers 847 recorded Binance USDT-M crypto and TradFi perpetuals: right-click almost any recent minute and it replays with no recording you had to prepare. | Replay Mode plays recorded market-depth (.bmf) files, which hold data from the moment you start recording. An earlier window exists only if you, or a vendor connection, captured it; crypto backfill varies by connection. |
| Order book in replay | Seek anywhere, inspect the book. Jump to any recorded moment and read the reconstructed DOM, tape and liquidations. Deep-seek DOM state manually verified across multiple pairs. | Recorded market-depth files preserve Bookmap heatmap and order-flow playback for the data contained in the file. |
| Replay reach | 90 days, every market, no prep. 90 days of rolling Pro replay across supported markets, plus important named events retained permanently. | Reach depends on the recorded files and any data made available by the selected connection or vendor. |
| Markets and execution | Study-first, in the browser. 847 Binance USDT-M crypto and TradFi perpetuals, plus every Hyperliquid perpetual, including Binance TradFi-linked contracts such as Nvidia, Tesla, AMD, QQQ, gold, silver and oil. Those Binance contracts are USDT-settled perps, not direct CME, equities-exchange or broker execution feeds. | A mature crypto, futures, and equities ecosystem with supported connections, trading, MBO on applicable feeds, and add-ons. |
| Search and research | Ask the whole record a question. Describe a setup and get every time it happened across 847 Binance USDT-M crypto and TradFi perpetuals: the count, what followed each one, and a replay of every match. Hyperliquid backfill and cross-exchange research are in the works. | A visualization and execution workflow organized around instruments, sessions, connections, and recorded files. |
| Local setup | Nothing to install or maintain. Browser operation with server-side capture and no local archive management. | Desktop software with local files and connection-specific data configuration. |
| EdgeDepth access | The terminal is free. Pro is $240/yr (about $20/mo) or $29/mo. Pay securely by card through Stripe, or save 10% when paying in Bitcoin. | Bookmap packages, market data, and connection costs vary. Check the current vendor terms for the intended market. |

WHAT ONLY EDGEDEPTH DOES HERE
Two things a desktop recorder can't give you.
01
We already recorded it. You never press record.
Bookmap's Replay Mode plays market-depth files that exist only from the moment you, or a vendor connection, started recording. EdgeDepth has been recording 847 Binance perp markets continuously: pick a coin, jump back three weeks, press play. Every trade and every book change replays exactly as it printed, with nothing to prepare.
▸ Replay a real event, no account02
Search the whole 415-day record in plain English.
Describe your setup once and see every time it happened, how often it went on to work, and how far it went against you first: not three cherry-picked wins. Every match opens in replay, and an alert can watch for the next one.
▸ Test a setup freeEvery Hyperliquid perp is live in the terminal today; its history is still being backfilled, so replay and search currently cover the recorded Binance markets.

FAQ
Bookmap vs EdgeDepth, plainly.
Is there an open-source Bookmap alternative?
Yes. The EdgeDepth terminal client is open source under AGPL-3.0, with an MIT-licensed gateway that runs it on Binance's free public data in one command: chart, DOM ladder, tape, GPU orderbook heatmap, the candle-derived liquidation Field and 1 second candles built from the raw trade stream, no account required. Bookmap is closed source and paid. The layers computed from EdgeDepth's recorded history, such as replay, research, VPIN and positioning, are the hosted product.
Can Bookmap replay market depth?
Yes. Bookmap Replay Mode plays recorded market-depth files and is a mature order-flow playback environment. EdgeDepth differs by continuously recording its supported market server-side, so the user does not need to prepare the local recording first.
Can Bookmap provide backfill or vendor data?
Availability can depend on the connection, data product and vendor. The comparison is not that Bookmap can never backfill data. EdgeDepth continuously records its Binance USDT-M replay universe server-side, carries every Hyperliquid perpetual live, and is actively backfilling Hyperliquid history into a full research layer.
Does EdgeDepth have a live order-book heatmap and large-volume visualization?
Yes. EdgeDepth has native-rate per-symbol Binance bookTicker plus sub-second per-coin Hyperliquid BBO, an ultra-high-definition GPU-rendered order-book depth heatmap, DOM, tape, footprint views, real-time follow mode, big-trade bubbles and forced-liquidation markers sized by USD notional at about 180 FPS. It does not copy Bookmap's volume-dot interface exactly.
What is different about the Hyperliquid liquidation layer?
It aggregates covered real Hyperliquid open positions at the liquidation price reported by the exchange, filters by actual leverage and displays census coverage. It is a live, explicitly labeled source, separate from the universal modeled liquidation field and from already-realized liquidations.
Is EdgeDepth a Bookmap replacement for CME or equities execution?
No. Bookmap is the stronger fit for traders who need supported CME or equities feeds, execution, MBO data and its add-on ecosystem. EdgeDepth carries Binance USDT-M and Hyperliquid perpetuals live, but the Binance TradFi-linked perps are not direct CME or equities feeds.
What does exact seekable DOM mean in EdgeDepth?
A user can seek directly into a recorded move and inspect the reconstructed order book at the selected recorded moment. Deep-seek DOM state has been manually verified across multiple pairs.
What does the EdgeDepth research engine add beyond replay?
It lets a person, API client, or MCP-connected AI agent describe a market condition and retrieve every historical match in the record. Every count says how many chances it had, every result can be re-run exactly, and every match opens in replay at its moment.
