The prediction market ushers in new opportunities, APRO launches subscription-based oracle service

The reliability of prediction markets fundamentally depends on the quality of data sources. Recently, APRO announced an important initiative—launching the Oracle-as-Service (OaaS) subscription platform, which productizes oracle capabilities, allowing applications like prediction markets to access required data in a more flexible manner.

Sports Data Launch, Covering Major Events

APRO now provides real-time verifiable sports event data for prediction markets, initially covering basketball, football, boxing, rugby, badminton, and other sports, with the first focus on supporting the NFL American football league. This means prediction contracts based on sports events will have more stable and accurate data sources.

Sports prediction markets have always been a significant branch of on-chain derivatives, but the pain points for developers have been data credibility and timeliness. Through multi-source data aggregation, APRO can provide near real-time event information, effectively reducing the risk of information delay in prediction markets.

OaaS Platform Optimizes Data Access Experience

The newly launched subscription-based OaaS platform adopts a standardized data access solution and supports the x402 payment protocol, reducing integration costs for prediction market projects. Compared to traditional oracle service models, the subscription system offers greater flexibility and cost transparency.

Ecosystem Compatibility Continually Expands

In terms of multi-chain support, APRO has adapted to over 40 public chains including Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base, Solana, and others, ensuring that the OaaS service can cover prediction market applications across major ecosystems.

In the data domain, APRO’s footprint is also continuously extending—currently covering crypto assets, social media, and sports data, with future plans to expand into eSports events and macroeconomic indicators, providing infrastructure support for more application scenarios.

It is evident that through the OaaS platform and sports data support, APRO is laying a solid foundation for the large-scale development of prediction markets. Driven by verifiable data, the market depth and participation in prediction markets are expected to further increase.
