Slips has introduced AI-powered prediction markets, extending its range of social betting products. The company is positioning the move as a major step forward combining artificial intelligence with interactive peer-to-peer gaming.

Since launch, Slips has attracted more than 150,000 users, known as Slippers, who have collectively won more than six million dollars according to company figures. Unlike traditional sportsbooks, Slips operates as a no house marketplace, enabling players to wager directly against one another. Its existing formats, such as Heads Up, Pools, and the tournament-style Tourlays, are now being expanded with AI-generated contests.

The platform also integrates social gaming features, including leaderboards, community chat, and shared pools. These elements are designed to keep players engaged, build community, and encourage repeat play.

AI Expands Market Creation

The integration of AI gives Slips the ability to generate prediction markets automatically, removing the need for manual setup. This innovation means the platform can react to live events and create contests at scale. Slips Founder and CEO Jess Richman emphasized the role of AI in shaping the future of peer-to-peer wagering.

“Prediction markets are the natural evolution of peer-to-peer gaming, and AI is the engine that makes it limitless. By removing the house, empowering our users, and tapping into generative AI, we’re creating the world’s most dynamic, scalable, and social real-money betting experience,” Richman said.

According to the company, the next phase will include expanding into futures, commodities, and political outcomes. AI will also manage data tracking, contest generation, and wager settlement, allowing for a steady pipeline of new betting opportunities. 

Peer-to-Peer Betting Gains Momentum

The launch comes amid growing attention on peer-to-peer wagering platforms and prediction exchanges. Operators such as Novig have pursued sweepstakes-style models that use redeemable tokens, while Slips has opted for a direct real-money structure that spans multiple categories from sports and finance to entertainment and politics.

This difference in approach highlights the range of business models now shaping the sector. Many platforms are experimenting with how to balance regulatory compliance, player engagement, and scalability in a market that continues to evolve.

Investors Back Social Gaming Approach

Slips is not the only operator adopting AI for prediction markets. Earlier this year, Kalshi partnered with Elon Musk’s xAI to bring Grok, the chatbot integrated into Musk’s X platform, into its yes-or-no derivatives markets. 

The momentum has attracted investors. Slips is backed by Sunset Bay Capital, Trousdale Ventures, and Watertower Ventures, according to PitchBook. The platform has also gained support from Jason Mercier, a six-time World Series of Poker champion.

With AI as a driver of expansion, Slips is aiming to secure a strong position in the competitive landscape of prediction markets by combining social interaction with scalable real-money wagering.
