Google will integrate Kalshi and Polymarket predictions into its Finance AI tools
Google will begin including so-called "prediction market" odds in its Google Finance upgrade, supplied by the online betting sites Kalshi and Polymarket, the company said late Thursday.
Google will begin including “prediction market” odds from the online betting platforms Kalshi and Polymarket into its Google Finance tools, the company said late Thursday.
The move would potentially put the platforms in front of millions of Americans who use Google, as the companies behind them face legal scrutiny in several major markets.
Polymarket and Kalshi insist that the wagers placed through their platforms are merely “event contracts” between private parties that should be regulated like commodities — not traditional gambling subject to state regulations.
That distinction has failed to convince many federal lawmakers and state attorneys general, however, who claim the companies “package sports betting as events contracts.”
Google said the integration of “event contract” sites will allow its users to “ask questions about future market events and harness the wisdom of the crowds.”
