Elon Musk’s xAI Joins Forces With Kalshi to Bring Grok AI to Regulated Prediction Markets
Elon Musk’s AI startup, xAI, announced a new partnership with Kalshi, a federally regulated prediction market, to integrate its chatbot Grok into real-money event trading.
Grok will analyze real-time news, economic data, and historical trends to assist Kalshi users in making informed bets on outcomes such as Federal Reserve interest rate decisions, Senate control, and inflation figures. This ability to quickly process complex information aims to provide traders with a competitive edge.
On social media platform X, xAI stated: “Kalshi and xAI are partnering to bring Grok to prediction markets. Two of the fastest-growing companies in America are now on the same team.”
This collaboration pairs Musk’s latest AI venture, known for its innovative chatbot Grok, with Kalshi, the only U.S.-regulated market offering tradable event contracts. While integration specifics remain undisclosed, earlier reports indicated significant engineering efforts from both companies.
The partnership further complicates Musk’s prediction market strategy. Earlier this year, xAI and Twitter’s parent company X named Polymarket—an unregulated crypto competitor to Kalshi—as their official partner. Now, Grok is being deployed across both Kalshi and Polymarket, signaling a broad approach to applying AI across various regulatory landscapes.
Grok’s newest version, Grok 4, launched this month with enhanced reasoning and data retrieval capabilities.
