The Forecasting Company (YC S24)

We build foundation models for time series.

[The Forecasting Company (YC S24) @forecastingco]

Today we’re proud to be releasing t0-alpha, our first public forecasting model.

t0-alpha is a 102M-parameter transformer built for time-series forecasting, released under Apache 2.0.

@trq212 @bcherny @AnthropicAI Amazing products though - thank you for building them!!

[The Forecasting Company (YC S24) @forecastingco]

Hey @trq212 @bcherny @AnthropicAI - we have a weird thing where we're being rate limited on Claude Tag / CC even though we've activated extra usage on everything - and the limits we see in the console are not reached. Pretty annoying since we don't know how to fix.

[The Forecasting Company (YC S24) @forecastingco]

t0-alpha is the best of our models so far - and just the beginning of what’s coming next.

Try it on your own data, download it on Hugging Face, forecast through our API, or use it in a few clicks on Retrocast. t0 is now. And it's only the beginning!

Because real forecasting is not just looking at the past and hoping for the best.

It needs to include known context about the future.

This release comes after months of working closely with customers and seeing where forecasting models fail in real-world use cases.

These changes are all about to land on the main branch of `datasets` and `huggingface_hub`, stay tuned !

Also check out @andimarafioti and the team at @forecastingco with @geoffnegiar and co who already have access to all this.

They might share cool stuff soon ;)

@Majdaxxx @typesfast Thanks for the shout out @Majdaxxx!

@typesfast You should check The Forecasting Company https://t.co/PWMpUzhUgT
Ex-Amazon and Google Brain founder, building a strong forecasting model for retailers and e-comm.

Can integrate via API also, lmk if you want an intro

[The Forecasting Company (YC S24) @forecastingco]

@typesfast @ycombinator Check out https://t.co/oyvPzEnT15 for the history of Amazon's forecasting methods.

Most e-comm cos should plug in a backtested foundation model (+relevant external data sources) that will continuously improve. That's where we come in.

@typesfast Hi @typesfast!

We're a @ycombinator co (S24) building foundation models for (demand) forecasting.

Best tech at scale is transformer based, pretrained.

Ideal capabilities: probabilistic forecasts, modeling joint distributions over time, SKUs, regions.

we've seen nothing yet! hosted a 9-13 yo vibe-coding event w. @robertkeus this w-e (h/t @antonosika @LovableBuild)

takeaway? AI is unleashing a generation of wildly creative builders beyond anything I'd have imagined

and they grow up *knowing* they can build anything!

We just released our new website!

Our goal for now is to provide the easiest, fastest benchmarking tools for forecasting models. Upload data, run forecasts at any time-point, compute metrics, zoom-in, zoom-out... and compare models!

Check out our website, and our demo.

@forecastingco builds foundation models for time-series (like ChatGPT, but for forecasting. Founded by @geoffnegiar and Joachim Fainberg.

[NYX Ventures @nyx_ventures]

🎉A big congratulations to @forecastingco @geoffnegiar and @jodles89 on this incredible milestone! From incorporation to 📍Times Square in just a few months — Proud to support your journey. #NYXPortfolio 💪

[The Forecasting Company (YC S24) @forecastingco]

We are buying historical time-series data for training our forecasting models.
