The predictive market professional trading terminal Kairos has completed a $2.5 million financing round, led by a16z crypto

The prediction market professional trading terminal Kairos announced the completion of a $2.5 million financing round, led by a16z crypto, with follow-on investments from Geneva Trading, the University of Illinois, and angel investors.

Kairos was co-founded by Jay Malavia (CEO) and Zayd Alzein (CTO), both of whom previously worked at the traditional financial company Cboe Global Markets. They founded the project after noticing the fragmented information and disjointed experience in the prediction market industry. Their platform aims to integrate the market data and trading of leading prediction markets Kalshi and Polymarket, providing a fast, customizable dashboard that synchronously displays relevant news and trading data. The company plans to launch a private beta version in the coming weeks, and currently, the team consists of only the two co-founders, with plans to start hiring after the financing.
