Institutional data layer for prediction markets

Oddpool is a platform that helps quant funds and trading desks harness the power of prediction markets. We make it easy to access, search, and analyze every venue from one place. Avi and Ritesh have been roommates since freshman year at Georgia Tech. Avi has a Master's in ML and saved Microsoft $6M/year by building a more accurate model on half the hardware. Ritesh has a Master's in Distributed Systems and made buy-side trading systems at Bloomberg 40% faster. We started trading prediction markets ourselves but couldn't backtest our strategies because the tooling for this emerging asset class didn't exist. The deeper we went, the more we saw that fragmentation between prediction markets and lack of clean data was going to be a big problem. We launched a prosumer tier and grew to several thousand dollars in MRR within months. Now we're bringing it to institutions, building tooling with the rigor and depth serious desks demand. They're the fastest growing asset class in finance, and CFTC applications for new exchanges keep climbing. Each new venue makes the market bigger, the fragmentation worse, and the unified data layer more valuable. It doesn't exist yet. We're building it.

The Problem

Data is the lifeblood of modern finance. Every desk, every strategy, every edge starts with it.

Yet prediction markets, one of the fastest-growing asset classes in the world, still lack the tooling that makes every other asset class easy for desks to adopt, leaving anyone trying to use this data stuck with three major pains:

  1. Fragmentation across venues with no shared symbology
  2. No tick-level history to backtest against
  3. Weeks spent normalizing data instead of generating signals

These compound the moment real money tries to enter, leaving a glaring problem to be solved.

Our Solution

Oddpool provides a frictionless experience to start pulling, backtesting, and building on prediction market data from day one.

We focus on two core capabilities:

  1. Universal symbology that maps every market across every venue to one canonical identifier.

  2. Tick-level history with full orderbook depth, every trade, and every delta, ready to backtest against

Our mission is to drive the institutional adoption of prediction markets, so the world's most accurate signals can finally be used by the desks that move it.
