Tracks the leading outcome in a winner-take-all prediction market set with 5 outcomes.

Why this matters:
This market estimates a 51% chance that Tesla will offer robotaxi service to the general public in Arizona before January 1, 2027—roughly seven months away. Among five state outcomes, Georgia currently leads at 51%, while Arizona sits at 30%, reflecting differences in regulatory environment, Tesla's deployment strategy, and stated timelines. The probability is shaped primarily by Tesla's actual progress on robotaxi technology and regulatory approvals, which vary significantly by state. Georgia ranks highest, followed by Florida at 48%, suggesting markets expect service launches in select states but not uniformly. The biggest near-term catalyst is Tesla's announcements about expansion timelines and any actual launches in competing states, which would clarify the company's rollout sequencing and regulatory feasibility. Zero trading volume across these contracts suggests limited recent conviction changes.

Key factors:
- Tesla has not yet launched general public robotaxi service in any U.S. state as of May 2026, establishing the baseline challenge
- Arizona's regulatory framework, insurance requirements, and Tesla's operational readiness in the state will determine if seven months allows for public deployment
- Georgia's 51% probability (highest among five states) indicates markets view it as the most likely launch location, which could influence Tesla's resource allocation across states
- Tesla's historical timelines for autonomous vehicle rollouts have frequently extended beyond initial public statements, creating skepticism about aggressive 2026 deadlines
- Regulatory approval speed varies by state; Georgia may have different approval requirements or Tesla relationships compared to Arizona

## Methodology

SimpleFunctions aggregates live YES-side prices from Kalshi and Polymarket contracts bound to this question. For binary topics the headline is the liquidity-weighted mid-price (weight = log(1 + 24h volume) × freshness, where freshness is 1.0 if updated <24h, 0.7 if <7d, 0.4 otherwise). For multi-outcome (winner-take-all) topics the headline is the current leader's price — disjoint outcomes are never arithmetically averaged. Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours.
