Overview

Welcome to the TFC API. Here we expose our own, as well as open-source models, behind a unified API. The foundation models we currently support are listed below. Please note that in their present implementations, TimesFM and Chronos neither support exogenous variables.

We also support auto-ETS and auto-ARIMA behind our long-running jobs endpoint.

Running forecasts

Our main endpoint for forecasting is /forecast. This returns forecasts directly for each request. For long-running jobs (e.g. when you may want to run many historic forecasts on the same series at once (we call this retrocasting) for the purpose of backtesting), we have a separate endpoint /retrocast-jobs where you can start jobs and poll for results given the returned job ID.
