The University of California, Institute for Prediction Technology (UCIPT) is a multidisciplinary organization seeking to accelerate technological research and innovations to predict human behavior and real-world events. Groundwork for UCIPT began in 2013 with a partnership with the UCLA Center for Digital Behavior. In 2014, research results from public health studies by the Institute's research team began to appear in newspapers, blogs, and other media outlets. In January 2015, UCIPT was formally established by Sean Young, who serves as its executive director. Initial funding for the organization was provided by a University of California (UC) President's Research Catalyst Award.UCIPT has research leaders at four university campuses: UCLA, UC San Diego, UC Santa Cruz, and UC Irvine; UCLA is the hosting institution.

UCIPT develops tools to analyze these data sources to inform public and private sector efforts to solve real-world problems. Areas of focus include public health, finance, cybersecurity, consumer products, politics, and poverty.
