Our gamble
That most people are not yet ready to beat a bookmaker in the long run.
Our first goal is to help you see how accurate your predictions are in the long term against the population, and let you know that you're not alone: it's extremely difficult to be accurate in the long run.
Meanwhile, we are fascinated by the idea of a targetted crowd -- crowd-based prediction systems, prediction markets or the IARPA's hybrid forecasting challenge.
The recurring theme? Most people shouldn't be putting their money on making predictions, but on aggregate the crowd outperforms the individual.
While these methods are fascinating, we're still in the early stages of the app, so we'll be trying different methods and being open about the effectiveness of them, and sharing everything with you, the users! Please sign up for the newsletter (here) or follow our blog
And in the meanwhile -- use our app in place of putting money on real events, and track your performance!
