The Forecasting Company (YC S24)

We build foundation models for time series.

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

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

@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!

I'm at NVIDIA GTC 2025, where you can book me for this @e180labs braindate: Forecasting in the age of AI: leveraging improvements for accurate time series forecasting https://t.co/bDqOAEtwio #braindate #NvidiaGTC2025

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.

Good thing @jodles89 is a black belt in taekwondo 🥋 !

You can have a great startup idea, but a great startup idea is like having a great plan for a fistfight.

The moment the idea actually touches customers is like the moment you get punched in the face.

What matters is what you do at that moment, not the plan.

I did not sign up for Cursor because I want my tools to be open source. This looks like a great open source Cursor

[Garry Tan @garrytan]

YC is going 4 batches per year

@daltonc @harjtaggar @snowmaker and all the YC partners worked very closely with me to make this happen — we're trying to be as responsive as possible to all the future founders in the world.

Great ideas are the work of many great partners

[Lina Colucci @lina_colucci]

Is my startup too early to apply to @ycombinator?

Let's see what @daltonc, @garrytan, @mwseibel and @paulg have to say...
