Google Brings Prediction Markets Polymarket and Kalshi to its Search and Finance Platforms

Google has integrated live market odds from prediction markets Polymarket and Kalshi into its Google Search and revamped Google Finance. This development makes crowd-sourced forecasts on key events, such as U.S. elections and recession odds, readily accessible to users. In response to inquiries like 'Will the U.S. enter a recession in 2025?' or 'Who will win the 2024 U.S. presidential election?', users can now view real-time market odds and charts tracking probability shifts over time. Using prediction markets allows individuals to buy and sell shares based on event outcomes, reflecting collective expectations. This integration represents a rare mainstream use of blockchain-based prediction data. Google aims to make its finance tools more interactive and globally accessible, with broader rollout plans beyond the U.S., including India. Alongside prediction markets, Google Finance will feature AI-driven tools to enhance the user experience.
