Let's talk
AI‑driven, not opinion‑driven

Our forecasts provide clarity where analysts still speculate

When decisions are costly, precise information becomes priceless.

In volatile markets, gut feeling and expert intuition are no longer enough. Every procurement decision, every hedging strategy, and every budget assumption comes with consequences – often worth millions. And yet, many decisions are still made with outdated reports, ambiguous trends, or partial data.

That’s where we come in.

What does an on‑demand forecast include?

Each forecast includes time‑series predictions for your selected benchmark and horizon, confidence intervals, and interpretable drivers such as supply/demand indicators and market sentiment.

How accurate are these forecasts?

Our models are backtested out‑of‑sample against historical data and industry baselines to ensure reliability. Accuracy varies by horizon and benchmark but consistently outperforms static consensus estimates.

Do I need data science expertise to use this?

No. Forecasts are delivered in ready‑to‑use formats (API, CSV, email, dashboard link) and can be integrated into existing workflows without internal ML teams.

How quickly can I get the first forecast?

After your initial request and setup call, you can typically expect usable forecasts within 5–10 business days, depending on data access and selected horizon.

Can forecasts be updated automatically?

Yes. You can receive recurring updates via automated delivery channels (API, webhook, email) based on your preferred cadence.

FAQ – Forecasting as a Service

Which delivery formats are supported?

E‑mail (PDF/Chart), CSV/Excel, API, Dashboard link, webhook/push. Custom formats are available on request.

Can I change my benchmark or horizon later?

Yes. You can adjust benchmarks or forecast horizons any time as part of your monthly engagement.

Do you handle my raw internal data?

If you choose to provide internal data sources, we can integrate them to enhance model quality and contextual relevance.

What commodities do you support?

We work across energy, metals, chemicals, agriculture and more. If your market has data and structure, we can model it — and if not, we tell you upfront.

How flexible is the contract term?

Services are monthly and cancellable with 30 days’ notice. There are no long‑term lock‑ins unless you opt for enterprise packages.

How secure is the data delivery?

All delivery channels (API, email, webhook) use encrypted transport and adhere to industry best practices. We can integrate with corporate VPNs/SFTP on request.

Unsure where to start with AI?

Budget, data readiness, stakeholders, timing — rolling out AI in procurement or commodity management can be complex. We’ll help you evaluate the options and choose the approach that makes sense for your organization today.
