Arithmancer

Arithmancer is a prediction market application. Users can make trades on predictions, betting on how likely an event is to occur. Each prediction is an individual market with a market maker system modeled on Robin Hanson's logarithmic market scoring rules.

This was designed and tested as an internal corporate decision market. Using outside of an organization as a general application will likely require additional features (ex. ACLs, better form validation and security, etc.).

Note: This is not an official Google product.
