Demand Forecasting
Quickly achieve a minimum 10% improvement in Forecast Accuracy
Major sports events have the ability to stop entire nations just before the first whistle blows. When it comes to the beautiful game, it’s no exception. But did you know that major soccer events could impact your business just as much as your social life?
Forget trawling the English Premier League, Bundesliga and La Liga websites for key dates. PredictHQ’s smart API collects all the major local and international sporting events that could affect your bottom line, then helps you figure out which ones are most important, so you can see at a glance which ones you can leverage to maximise your revenue - and which ones you should buy season tickets for. Use our API to return details about thousands of events that could impact your business, or download and store your own local copy of events, so you can use them for data modeling and analysis, or enriching your own dataset to produce and sell derivative works.

Whether you’re a Manchester United follower, Real Madrid supporter or a Barcelona fan, one trait is common when it comes to sporting success: preparation. The same is true for business. Thanks to PredictHQ’s RESTful API, you no longer have to make business decisions based on fluke.
Information is key when it comes to building applications, algorithms and data models, but businesses don’t always have time to find it themselves. That’s where PredictHQ comes in. We collate, aggregate and maintain millions of global scheduled and unscheduled events, including major soccer matches, then numerically rank them so you can filter from major to minor events then maximise your return on increased demand. Improve your pricing intelligence and enrich your own apps with our data event science, then apply that information to your own business decisions. Lookup events and get JSON responses. Integrate our data with any platform - and to make integrations even easier PredictHQ currently has Python and JavaScript SDKs available. We use the OAuth 2.0 standard for authentication, and access tokens are required to grant application access to the tools available on the API. Developers won’t need to spend precious time capturing, cleaning and maintaining disparate data sources. Plus, our API is versioned for easier maintenance.
Don't underestimate how much effort it takes to work with event data... Being able to rely on a company whose sole purpose is to remove the ambiguity of event data has been game-changing for us.
In the same way Manchester United is just one component of the Premier League, so too is a single event stored by PredictHQ compared to the millions of scheduled and unscheduled events we collate for you, so you don’t have to. PredictHQ pulls hundreds of data streams and third party APIs across more than 18 categories (and counting) into one intuitive information source, then ranks them according to the potential impact they might have. From there, integrate our data into your own applications, algorithms and data models to forecast how each event might impact your business, then plan solid marketing campaigns around them so you can maximise your revenue. We give you plenty of warning to create successful marketing campaigns, make more rooms or rental vehicles available, or send more cab drivers to a major soccer match simply by leveraging big events before they even happen. You can even do nifty things like search for events using airport IATA codes, search within a geographical radius, or query multiple categories or locations at the same time. If that’s not ‘playing ball’, we don’t know what is.
Knowing the impact of demand causal factors like events will transform your business. The American Society of Hematology has a $45M estimated economic impact — and that's only one event in one city.
