Kalshi has defined a new category: prediction markets. Kalshi allows people to trade on the outcome of any events and turn any question about the future into a financial asset. Kalshi fought for years and legalized prediction markets in the US for the first time in history. Kalshi is currently the fastest financial market in America, and has 1000 markets across politics, economics, financials, weather, tech, AI, culture and more.
We believe prediction markets have the potential to be the largest financial market because they turn anything into a financial position.
Building a new category is hard… like really hard. But it’s beautiful and deeply fulfilling. Our culture is simple: we hire really talented, work really hard, and enjoy the climb. We are looking for ambitious and exceptional people to join our (relatively small) team to help us built the next generation of financial markets.

We are committed to our vision of building something big… but also useful: a product that brings more truth through the power of markets.
