Paired with TIME’s globally renowned legacy, [Predictor.io](http://predictor.io), which operates independently from TIME’s newsroom, will create a channel for real-time market data that drives engagement. Predictors will be able to engage with dynamic, story-driven content and an AI-powered interactive experience that helps them explore, interpret, and predict what happens next. The experience is designed to inform, inspire, and empower Predictors to take part in the future, not just watch it unfold. The strategic partnership marks a pivotal step forward for prediction markets as they attract growing recognition and interest from some of the world’s largest media brands. As the media landscape evolves with shifting consumer preferences, prediction markets provide a pioneering opportunity for media companies to deliver compelling content driven by quantitative assumptions and to offer Predictors a unique way to interact with content. TIME’s prediction market platform, powered by Galactic, is scheduled to launch early 2026\. ### TIME Partners with Galactic on Prediction Market Platform ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/7335350/time-galactic-partnership-prediction-market/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/7335350/time-galactic-partnership-prediction-market/"},"headline":"TIME Partners with Galactic to Launch Prediction Market Platform","datePublished":"2025-11-20T15:00:00.000Z","dateModified":"2026-03-11T00:35:21.922Z","description":"TIME Partners with Galactic to Launch Prediction Market Platform","url":"https://time.com/7335350/time-galactic-partnership-prediction-market/","keywords":["Press Room"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME PR","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-pr/"}],"articleSection":"Press Room","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/press-room/","name":"Press Room"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/press-room/","name":"Press Room"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/7335350/time-galactic-partnership-prediction-market/","name":"TIME Partners with Galactic to Launch Prediction Market Platform"}}]}] ```
