Predict is a project developing an ecosystem of analytical tools and infrastructure designed for participants in prediction markets. [1] [2] As an official Polymarket Builders project, it aims to create specialized tools to provide users with an informational edge, as well as a permissionless platform for creating prediction markets directly from posts on the social media site X. [1] [2]
Predict's public-facing development began around December 2025, when its official social media presence was established. [2] The project positions itself as "The Layer 1 for Social Prediction Markets," intending to provide a foundational protocol for a new category of markets derived from social media interactions. Predict's ecosystem is being developed to serve a wide range of users, including individual traders, data analysts, developers, and general social media users seeking to create or participate in event-based markets. [1] [2]
The core mission of the project is to enhance decision-making, uncover market opportunities, and significantly lower the barrier to entry for creating new prediction markets and related applications. To achieve this, Predict is building tools that integrate with established platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, while also fostering its own ecosystem centered on social media. The project operates under a "community-owned" and "No VC" model, indicating an approach that forgoes venture capital funding in favor of community-centric development and ownership. At the time of its initial launch phase, the platform was operating on a testnet. [1]
Predict's ecosystem is composed of a suite of four main products designed to work in synergy and support different user types within the prediction market space. [1] [2]
This is the flagship product of the Predict platform, enabling users to create live, functional prediction markets directly from any post on the social media platform X. The process is designed to be permissionless and instantaneous, requiring no central approval. A user initiates market creation by mentioning the project's official bot, @predict_curator, in a reply to the target X post. This feature is intended to facilitate the rapid creation of markets based on breaking news, viral trends, and online discourse. [1] [2]
Also referred to as the Alpha Terminal, this product is an analytical tool for traders and market participants. It is designed to provide detailed, in-depth analysis of existing markets to inform trading decisions. Users can paste a market link from supported centralized and decentralized prediction market platforms, such as Polymarket and Kalshi, into the terminal to instantly receive a comprehensive set of analytics and data points related to that market. [1] [2]
Predict is developing an artificial intelligence-powered agent, described as being similar in function to tools like AIXBT, which is trained on years of historical prediction market data. This agent is intended to serve several functions for advanced traders. It aims to automatically identify and uncover alpha-generating opportunities, provide copy trading signals that users can follow, and highlight real-time arbitrage plays that may exist between different markets or platforms. [1] [2]
PredictOS is the project's open-source framework and developer toolkit. It is described as the foundational operating system for the ecosystem, enabling developers to build, integrate, and innovate on top of prediction market platforms. The goal of PredictOS is to streamline the creation of new applications, automated trading bots, user interfaces, and other tools. The project has made the framework available through its GitHub repository, with an announced release of PredictOS V2.0.0. [1] [2]
The Predict platform incorporates several key features that define its functionality and economic model. Social market creation through its X bot allows for the on-demand transformation of social media posts into tradable markets. For market settlement, it utilizes an AI-powered resolution system, specifically using Grok to analyze information and determine the outcomes of market events. [1]
To incentivize participation and content creation, the platform has a fee-sharing mechanism where a significant portion of trading fees is distributed to the author of the original X post and the user who initiated the market. The ecosystem is also supported by its native token, $PREDICT, which is integrated into a buyback and burn program funded by a percentage of platform fees. This is designed to create a deflationary pressure on the token supply over time. [1]
The Predict ecosystem is structured around its permissionless market creation platform and the economic mechanics of its native $PREDICT token. The project describes a "flywheel" effect that is intended to drive sustainable growth. In this model, the creation of more markets on the platform leads to higher trading volume and, consequently, greater fee generation. [1]
These fees are then used to fund the token's buyback and burn program, which aims to increase the token's scarcity and value. The potential for a rising token value is intended to attract more users, traders, and developers to the platform, who in turn create more markets and applications, thus restarting the cycle. The analytical tools, such as the Dedicated Terminal and the Advanced Agent, are built to support traders operating within this ecosystem as well as on external prediction markets. For developers, the PredictOS framework provides the necessary tools to build new applications and integrations, with the goal of fostering a broader and more robust ecosystem around the core platform. [1]
The tools and platform developed by Predict are intended for a variety of applications within the prediction market sector.
Predict's architecture integrates social media platforms with blockchain mechanics through a web-based interface that operates on a testnet. The project's self-description as a "Layer 1 for Social Prediction Markets" suggests its intent to serve as a foundational protocol upon which other applications can be built. [1] [2]
The system's architecture can be broken down into several key components. Market creation is facilitated by an automated bot on X, @predict_curator, which functions as an off-chain component that parses user requests and initiates the process of launching new markets. The resolution of these markets is handled by an integrated AI system powered by Grok, which is tasked with determining the final outcome of the predicted event. On the developer side, the architecture is supported by PredictOS, an open-source operating system available on GitHub that provides the foundational code for building within the ecosystem. The on-chain component is centered around the $PREDICT token and the associated smart contracts that manage the fee distribution and the subsequent buyback and burn mechanism funded by platform revenue. [1]
The tokenomics of the $PREDICT token are designed around a community-centric philosophy, with the project publicly stating that it has taken no venture capital funding. The platform's fee structure is a core component of its economic model, directly linking platform activity to the token's value accrual mechanism. [1]
For each market created on the platform, the generated trading fees are distributed according to a set formula. From the total fees collected, 50% is allocated to the author of the original X post that the market was based on, and 30% is allocated to the user who first initiated the creation of the market by tagging the @predict_curator bot. [1]
The remaining 20% of fees constitute a platform fee. This revenue is programmatically used to fund the token's buyback and burn mechanism, where the platform buys $PREDICT tokens from the open market and permanently removes them from circulation. This process is intended to create deflationary pressure and increase the token's scarcity over time. [1]
The project's self-described "Community Owned" model suggests that the $PREDICT token will likely play a central role in the platform's future governance. However, specific details about a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) structure, voting rights, or other governance mechanisms have not been released. [1]
Predict has established several key relationships and integrations to support its ecosystem, integrating social media, AI, and decentralized finance.
Predict is designated as an official Polymarket Builders project, indicating a strategic and developmental relationship with the prediction market platform. To facilitate this, PredictOS uses Dome API for Polymarket market data retrieval, order execution, and real-time wallet tracking via WebSocket feeds.
The project's Dedicated Terminal is designed to analyze markets on Kalshi, a regulated financial exchange. This is further enhanced through the DFlow integration. PredictOS integrates DFlow's Prediction Markets API to bring tokenized Kalshi markets directly to Solana builders, empowering new workflows.
The platform utilizes Grok's AI capabilities for the resolution of its prediction markets, representing a core technology integration.
The social media platform is fundamentally integrated into Predict's ecosystem through its permissionless market creator, which uses X posts as the basis for market creation.
PredictOS has partnered with JellyJelly, a Web3 social media platform co-founded by a co-founder of Venmo, to bring prediction markets into its social ecosystem. This integration aims to create a "SocialFi x Prediction Markets" environment.
PredictOS partners with Privy, a wallet infrastructure provider acquired by Stripe, to manage wallet integrations across its ecosystem. This is intended to deliver more secure and seamless onboarding for users with any wallet type.
PredictOS integrates PayAI, a payment protocol for AI agents using the HTTP 402 standard. This powers the x402 Tool in its Super Intelligence platform, enabling agents to discover and automatically pay for premium AI services using USDC on Solana or Base.
Through an integration with IRYS, a datachain for permanent storage, PredictOS powers "Verifiable Agents." This feature permanently stores all agent analysis and results on the blockchain, creating a transparent and auditable record of AI agent decisions.
The Predict_Agent provides direct links to OKBet, a prediction markets bot on Telegram. This allows users to move from market discovery on Predict to placing bets on Kalshi and Polymarket within Telegram.
PredictOS integrates Polyfactual's Deep Research API into its Super Intelligence platform. This enables its agents to get comprehensive, cited answers to enhance their analytical capabilities.
Predict is partnering with Hey Anon, a developer of AI tools for "DeFAI," to integrate Pandora, a permissionless prediction market platform. The collaboration aims to bring Alpha Terminal insights to Pandora's markets.
PredictOS is teaming up with LI.FI, a cross-chain swap and bridge aggregator, to facilitate faster cross-chain transfers and payments. This brings universal liquidity to the prediction markets within the Predict ecosystem.
