Game data platform GRID has formed a strategic alliance with Sportstensor, an AI-driven sports prediction platform. This exciting collaboration is set to transform prediction markets by leveraging GRID’s extensive data resources across multiple esports titles.
Enhancing Esports Prediction Markets
As part of this partnership, GRID will provide data from popular games such as Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, League of Legends, and VALORANT. This move is expected to expand the number of esports prediction markets available on the Sportstensor platform. The integration of official and verified data from various esports tournaments aims to ensure that these markets are fair, transparent, and secure. GRID’s partnership will power prediction markets with data from several top esports titles.
Rapid Growth of Prediction Markets
Prediction markets are gaining momentum as a prominent area in digital entertainment, particularly within the esports and gambling sectors. With PrizePicks recently obtaining CFTC approval to enter prediction markets, this space is rapidly evolving. According to Dominika Szot, Vice President of Growth at GRID, the integrity of these markets is paramount, and the use of official data ensures fairness and transparency.

This partnership with Sportstensor positions esports as a promising frontier in the prediction market industry, offering new opportunities for companies aiming to innovate in esports markets. With Polymarket gearing up for its U.S. launch, prediction markets continue to present exciting prospects for stakeholders in this dynamic field.
