Lightning Rod offers Foresight, an OpenAI compatible forecasting API that returns calibrated probabilities for questions about future events. Unlike general purpose LLMs that produce plausible text, Foresight models are trained using a proprietary Future as Label method and evaluated on real world outcomes. The API supports features like auto research and answer type selection, and is designed to be a drop in replacement for standard chat completions in forecasting workflows.
