Calibration & Resolution Tracker

Analyzing prediction market accuracy and tracking resolution patterns across Polymarket and Kalshi. As markets resolve, this page will reveal how well-calibrated each platform truly is.

What is Calibration?

Understanding prediction market accuracy

Calibration measures whether prediction market prices accurately reflect real probabilities. A well-calibrated market means that when markets are priced at 70%, the event actually happens about 70% of the time.

If markets priced at 70% resolve YES 70% of the time, the market is perfectly calibrated. If they resolve YES only 50% of the time, the market systematically overestimates these events.

Brier Score

The gold standard for measuring probabilistic prediction accuracy

The Brier Score measures the accuracy of probabilistic predictions. It is the mean squared difference between predicted probabilities and actual outcomes.

Brier Score Formula:
BS = (1/N) * Σ(forecasti - outcomei
0.000Perfect predictions
0.250Random guessing (coin flip on everything)
1.000Always maximally wrong

Awaiting Resolutions

Brier Scores will be computed once markets begin resolving.
