How Budshi works

  1. 1

    Set up in a minute

    Pick the topics you care about, how many buds are playing and how many rounds. We build a balanced set of questions for you.

  2. 2

    Draft and lock

    Take turns drafting questions in a snake draft, lock your answers before the deadline, then play multiplier cards on the calls you're sure of.

  3. 3

    Watch it play out

    As real events resolve, the standings move. Everyone gets a recap that says who called it and who didn't.

Built for groups that love being right

Balanced by design

Easy calls and long shots are mixed so no one runs away with it on day one.

Questions, answered

Is real money involved?

No. Budshi is free to play and there are no wagers or cash prizes. It is a scorekeeping game for bragging rights.

Where do the questions come from?

Suggested questions come from Kalshi's public market data, filtered and balanced for your group. You can edit any of them or write your own. Budshi is not affiliated with Kalshi.

Do I need to pay?

Your first Circle is free. Budshi Plus is $9.99 a year and lets you run up to 5 Circles at a time.

How do public Circles work?

Public Circles are listed on Budshi. You request to join and the host decides. Everything else about them works like a private Circle.
