Oddpool ne yapar

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.

Institutional infrastructure for prediction markets

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We're building a platform that consolidates access, search, and analysis of every prediction market venue for quant funds and trading desks. It solves the fragmentation and data problems that keep these institutions from effectively backtesting and trading prediction markets at scale.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, CA and the company is based here.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where the finance and tech ecosystem overlap, and it's where our target customers - quants and trading desks - are concentrated. Being here helps us stay close to industry and grow institutional relationships.

Sıkça Sorulan Sorular

Bu, Oddpool şirketinin gerçek YC başvurusu mu?

Hayır. Y Combinator gönderilen başvuruları gizli tutar. Bu bir yeniden yapılandırmadır: gerçek YC form soruları, Oddpool'in kamuya açık verilerinden (lansman notları, kurucu geçmişleri, ürün açıklaması) yanıtlanmıştır. Oddpool gibi bir şirketin YC'ye kendisini nasıl sunacağını gösterir, gönderdikleri metni değil.
