Forecast ready Features

A library of features at your disposal

For forecasting, you often want to know the total impact of different types of events around a location. You can think of Features API as a library of features for use in your models. Maybe you want to know the total amount of sports events happening in a radius around your location – we’ve got you covered. Do you want to know the average event size happening around your store – we have that. Do you want to know how public holidays, school holidays or observances are impacting your location – it’s all there.

Demand Surges

Quickly identify demand surges near you

Events vary in type, size, location, duration, and impact. They also tend to cluster, sometimes bringing in an unusually significant spike in attendance for events within a given location and date range. Use the Features API to easily scan and identify potential demand surges forming near your business locations, and start discovering new opportunities today.
Immediate updates

Get your forecast model updated live

We know getting updates to models live in production can be time consuming and expensive. Building features for your model often involves downloading large data volumes into a data lake and managing that data. Then you need to write code to aggregate and create features on top of the data lake. Instead of downloading all of the events data into a data lake use the Features API to get the features you need for your model. Reduce your feature engineering effort and get your models updated in a fraction of the time.
Research and development

Accelerate your model R&D

Incorporating intelligent event data into your models will increase forecast accuracy for many businesses. We want you to be able to see the value quickly. During research and development, Data Science teams can spend a lot of time understanding data, pulling down data, aggregating data, and building features. The Features API is designed to deliver event based features in an easy to use format to make it very easy to try out events data in your models.
Jupyter Notebooks
