The Forecasting Company is a Paris based research lab building foundation models for time series. Its main product is a forecasting model called t0, which reads raw history from a series and returns a calibrated distribution of what happens next, instead of a single point estimate. The vendor says it needs no feature engineering and no fine tuning, and that the same model runs unchanged across domains.
Users describe their data once and the API reshapes it. The site highlights use cases in energy load, energy price, retail demand and workforce planning, and offers Retrocast, an interactive tool for backtesting. In Retrocast the forecast start can be dragged back in time so the model sees only earlier data, and the vendor says a backtest can cover every series a customer has at up to 200,000 forecasts a second. A recent release describes forecasting through a SQL query. The latest model release, t0 beta, is published with open weights on Hugging Face, and the company maintains API documentation.
The company was founded by Geoffrey Négiar and Joachim Fainberg and is backed by Y Combinator.
Pricing is not published. The site directs prospective customers to talk to the company about their data.
