FactMachine turns opinions into markets. Other apps ask what will happen. FactMachine asks what people believe. New questions drop daily on what everyone's actually arguing about: culture, tech, sports, current events and anything else. Two ways to play. Vote for free, or trade the crowd opinion. VOTE. IT'S FREE, AND IT DECIDES EVERYTHING. Every market starts with a vote. Vote your genuine take, then predict what percentage of people will agree with you. Call the crowd right and you earn rewards and climb the leaderboard. No purchase, no commitment. The final vote count is what resolves every market. THINK YOU KNOW WHAT MOST PEOPLE THINK? TRADE IT. If you're confident in your read, take a position. Prices move in real time as traders buy and sell, but the final vote count is the only thing that decides the outcome. You're not trading on what happens. You're trading on what people believe. BUILT TO FEEL EFFORTLESS - Fast, clean, zero clutter - Votes, positions, profit and loss, and full history in one place - See exactly where you stack up against everyone else HOW TO PLAY Voting is always free and never requires funds. Trading involves real funds. Availability depends on your region and eligibility.
