Notice anything different about our binary forecast question interface?👀
We recently launched an update for binary questions to now show both "yes" and "no" answer options, rather than a single "yes" option.

If I were a betting man (which I am), I'd wager INFER is the open forecasting platform with the best chance of significantly impacting major policy decisions.

10 outstanding INFER Pros were recently named All Stars for the 2023 season.

We turned "pre-mortems" on today for several of our forecasting platforms like infer-pub.com/activity - interesting to see people's own rationales for why they may be wrong. Will be even more interesting to aggregate for decision makers. If only people IRL did this all the time.
