The AI-powered search engine Perplexity has partnered with Polymarket, a prediction marketplace well-known for letting users wager on actual occurrences.
This partnership improves Polymarket’s platform by presenting news summaries of events straight from Perplexity’s search results when users click on an event. A search box feature also helps users to ask more specific inquiries, which enhances their capacity to find pertinent information.
Additionally, Polymarket will make use of Perplexity’s Pages capability to design shareable columns that will be shown on the Discover page of Perplexity.
Perplexity intends to include additional content from other sources in its Discover area to perhaps increase the amount of information it offers. Additionally, Perplexity will create visualizations using Tako, another AI platform, using data from Polymarket, including election patterns.
The CEO of Polymarket, Shayne Coplan, stressed the platform’s dedication to trustworthy information in a cluttered internet environment. He emphasized how this purpose aligned with Perplexity, making their relationship a logical next step.
Through the integration of AI-driven news summaries and visual data, this partnership strengthens Polymarket’s position as a reliable resource for well-informed decision-making.
By enabling writers to include Polymarket’s prediction data into their pieces, this cooperation expands on Polymarket’s previous work with Substack and adds real-time insights to content. Polymarket has increased its presence in digital media by launching “Oracle,” a Substack newsletter.
With over 25,000 developers currently using their API, Perplexity sees this cooperation as a growth in API usage, even if their core target market is still consumers and knowledge workers. Perplexity has launched a revenue-sharing arrangement with media sites and pledged to prominently show citations in response to accusations of plagiarism and content scraping.
Perplexity, backed by significant investors like NEA, IVP, Sequoia, and Jeff Bezos, recently raised $63 million and is reportedly seeking further funding to enhance its valuation, which could reach between $2.5 billion and $3 billion.
