Navigate uncertainty with AI-powered forecasting
Customer behavior and needs have changed dramatically. As a result, businesses are becoming more agile to keep up with changes to identify new opportunities that meet customer needs. Identifying trends in data helps to anticipate, which is why companies rely more on forecasting. But forecasting remains complex and laborious. It requires manual updating of data and adjustments to forecast outputs. These steps can delay decisions, preventing businesses from responding immediately to new demand patterns and market changes.
AI-powered forecasting enables organizations to respond to changes faster and make the right decisions. A broader set of data scientists leverage DataRobot AI Cloud advances AI forecasting to combine automation with best-in-class modeling techniques to streamline forecasting. Now you can experiment faster, build models for new segments without sacrificing accuracy, and most importantly, operationalize models in a few clicks completely out-of-the-box.
