## What is Forecast?

Forecast turns the news into questions you can answer with a number.

Will there be a ceasefire by the end of the year? Who controls the Senate? Will the Fed cut rates? Put a probability on it, then update it whenever the evidence changes. Every question is settled automatically from public sources, and every forecast is scored with a time-weighted Brier score, so being early and right counts most.

- A daily briefing of the questions behind the headlines
- Questions on the stories people actually follow: war and diplomacy, elections, the economy
- Honest scoring: rating, rank from Novice to Superforecaster, and skill achievements
- Daily challenges with Elo, open to everyone
- Sourced world news one tap from every question
- Forecast Points to show your confidence. They can't be bought, sold or redeemed.

No ads. No subscriptions. No feeds. Just better judgment.
