About

I’m a senior front-end engineer and the founder of Eroteme, a social forecasting platform where people analyse real-world questions, share their reasoning and build a measurable forecasting record. I’m interested in how community insight and AI-powered research can help people make better-informed forecasts. I’m currently focused on growing Eroteme, learning from early users and connecting with other founders and makers.

What makes an online forecast credible to you?

People make forecasts every day across sport, politics, technology and finance. However, once the outcome is known, it can be difficult to tell who has been consistently accurate and who was simply confident on one occasion.

When deciding whether to trust someone s forecast, which signals matter most to you?

A public track record
Written reasoning
A stated confidence percentage
Experience in the subject
Community agreement or disagreement
Something else entirely

This is the problem I am exploring with Eroteme, where forecasts, reasoning and results contribute to a measurable public record.

Eroteme - Share your analysis. Forecast what happens next.

Eroteme is a social forecasting platform where people explore real-world questions, publish what they think will happen and explain why. Unlike simple polls, every forecast records the user’s confidence and is checked when the outcome resolves, creating a measurable track record over time. Users can follow forecasters, discuss their analysis, compete on leaderboards and use Eroteme AI for deeper research before publishing their own view.
