prediction about your favorite sports
team, your friends dating failure or the
next celebrity to end up in rehab?

on Knoda.
Knoda is a social prediction platform

on others’ predictions and talk trash.

button allows the community to easily
correct any wrong outcomes.

Android coming soon.

3. CASE STUDY
Knoda user JohnnyOptimist accurately predicted
the winner of the $1.5 million #esuranceSave30
contest.
JohnnyOptimist posted his prediction on Knoda a
full 36 hours BEFORE the winner was announced
live on the Jimmy Kimmel show.
Esurance had over 2 million entrants making the
odds of getting this prediction right: 2,000,000 - 1.
He was able to decipher the winner based on a
careful analysis of the Esurance Twitter account.
JohnnyOptimist was the only person on the planet
who was able to predict this. And thanks to Knoda,
he has proof. Two articles on the amazing
prediction can be found here and here.

5. ORIGIN STORY
In 1999, Kyle Rogers (Co-Founder)
watched his beloved Kansas Jayhawks,
with their stud Freshman class of Drew
Gooden, Nick Collison and Kirk Hinrich,
destroy an opponent in their first game.
He boldly told his Mom, “Mom, when these
guys are seniors in 2003, they are winning
the National Championship!”
Flash forward 4 years. Kansas is playing
Syracuse for the Title. Kyle tells his Mom,
“Remember when I predicted this?”
Kyle’s Mom responds, “What are you
talking about? No you didn’t.”
And the idea for Knoda was born. All
because his Mom didn’t remember his
prediction? Yeah, kind’ve.

7. WHY KNODA?
We are working to create an addictive
experience, much like Crystal Meth, but
without, well, you know, all the bad of Meth.
Knoda is all about earning bragging rights.
It’s about being able to say “I Told You So”
without sounding like a douche.
Knoda is a social experience built on
competition and ego. This is the chance to
hold friends accountable for their terrible
picks.
Our mission at Knoda is to be the official
record book for all predictions. Have a
prediction? Put it in writing forever on Knoda.
