Problem
Financial platforms struggle to sustain daily user engagement and often fail to capitalize on the predictive insights their users naturally generate. Traditional engagement features do not convert user behavior into structured, commercially valuable intelligence, leaving platforms with underutilized user bases and missing revenue streams.
Solution
Orbu.ai provides prediction intelligence as a service, embedding an AI-powered forecast aggregation engine directly into financial platforms. The platform offers a lightweight API that allows apps to fetch prediction questions and submit user responses, giving partners control over the user experience while Orbu handles the data layer. Every user prediction feeds an AI-weighted aggregation engine that produces crowd probability estimates on financial events, with signal quality improving as more forecasts are made. The resulting crowd intelligence is monetized by selling data to institutional investors who value probability estimates that outperform traditional research, creating a new revenue stream for the platform.
Target Audience
Primary customers are financial technology platforms—including trading apps, investment communities, and brokerage services—that seek to increase user engagement and generate additional revenue by converting existing user bases into providers of investment-grade crowd intelligence.
