TimeFM — Zero-Shot Time Series Forecasting

Upload or paste any time series. Get a forecast with calibrated uncertainty.

No training, no configuration needed. The model handles seasonal patterns, trends, intermittent demand, and more. Built-in guardrails automatically detect when the model is uncertain and fall back to robust baselines.

Input: A column of numbers (minimum 20 values, ideally 200+)
Output: Forecast with 50%/80%/90%/95% prediction intervals

How to use:

  1. Paste comma or newline-separated numbers in the text box, or
  2. Upload a CSV file with a numeric column
  3. Set the forecast horizon (how many steps ahead)
  4. Click Submit

What it's good at:

  • Retail demand forecasting (MASE 0.83 on Walmart M5 data)
  • Seasonal patterns (MASE 0.69)
  • Intermittent demand (MASE 0.56)
  • Trend forecasting (MASE 0.77)

Limitations:

  • Univariate only (one variable at a time)
  • Works best with 200+ data points
  • Cannot predict random walks (no model can)
