Catenaa, Wednesday, December 03, 2025-Kalshi said today it became CNN’s official prediction market partner, giving the network access to real time probability data on political and cultural events.
The company said its data will be used across CNN programming and integrated into newsroom and production workflows.
A Kalshi powered ticker is set to run during segments that feature outlooks on upcoming events.
Kalshi called the agreement a major step in its push to place prediction markets alongside standard reporting tools. The partnership follows rising interest in event based contracts that estimate likely outcomes before news breaks.
The platform said reporters, elected officials, analysts, and investors already track its markets.
The deal arrives as prediction platforms gain wider attention.
Kalshi and rival Polymarket have processed more than forty five billion dollars in combined volume this year. Major finance and media firms including Google Finance, Yahoo Finance, Robinhood and Intercontinental Exchange have worked with the sector.
The growth has drawn questions from critics who argue event contracts resemble sports wagers. Kalshi faces a nationwide class action lawsuit that claims it operates an unlicensed betting service while presenting better odds than sportsbooks.
The company rejects that view and says its markets offer information on future outcomes.
