Predictify is an online prediction platform based on the concept of collective wisdom. It combines the responses of a large number of users into a powerful collective prediction. Unlike surveys and polls, Predictify asks members to consider the likely outcome of an event, not their personal opinions or beliefs, which often results in a more accurate prediction. For example, Predictify users recently outperformed economists surveyed by Thomson Financial in predicting the October 2007 Consumer Confidence Index. Predictify users predicted an index level of 98.9, while the economists predicted 99.4; the actual outcome was 95.6.
On Predictify, members can find events that interest them, predict the outcome, build a reputation based on accuracy, and even get paid real money when they're right. Members can also post questions about future events and collect a large sample of predictions about the outcome. Best of all, it's free - no points or bets are required
