Unlocking the Future of Predictive Analytics with Kopilot
Using AI and predictive machine learning (ML) to get actionable forward-looking insights from data are no longer a competitive edge, rather a necessity for ecommerce businesses. With so many options available, consumers expect high quality, personalized experiences that give them exactly what they are likely interested in.
But getting to true predictive insights can be a long, arduous road.
Building the right capabilities involves error-prone and tedious manual feature engineering and training data generation, building lots of brittle data pipelines, and significant tuning. This journey requires sufficient expertise, resources, and expensive talent.
Kumo’s vision is to make predictive ML accessible to anyone, regardless of resources. The platform makes it easy to leverage predictive capabilities directly on top of your raw data without a dedicated ML and data team. All you need to do is connect Kumo to your data.
The platform will learn the relationships between your business entities and automate the core steps of the ML process – from data ingestion to model deployment, Kumo makes it easy to generate many predictions across many use cases with no additional overhead.
Kumo’s latest interface, Kopilot, takes the latest in LLMs and generative AI to provide a natural language interface for building machine learning models and leveraging the predictions directly into your business.
Talk to Your Data with Natural Language
The fundamental idea behind Kopilot is to allow you to specify your business goals directly in English, which will trigger the Kumo platform to start building predictive analytics and empower you to make decisions using forward-looking insights.
Kopilot’s natural language interface provides a level of flexibility to specify any kind of a business problem. Want to figure out how to retain more customers? Need to know if inactive customers will churn?
Under the hood, these statements are all translated into end-to-end models that serve predictions directly from your raw data. No need for dedicated ML infrastructure or complicated pipelines.
Your Personal ML Team in a Box
Even the most advanced ML models are only as good as the data that drives them.
Once you decide on the top use cases of interest to you, Kopilot helps you select the right data and build your enterprise graph, ready for predictions.
Kopilot understands your data and helps you make decisions on how to prepare it for predictions. It maintains a bird’s-eye view of how the different entities in your business interact with each other, coupled with a deep intuition for machine learning, to guide you through every decision in the data preparation stage, including:
- Building your enterprise graph: identifying how to connect your data into a larger graph representing your business interactions
- Identifying relevant data: determining which tables and columns in your data are most useful for your specific use cases and unique business challenges
- Validating data quality: ensures that your data tables are sufficiently full, formatted well, and do not contain any information that would degrade the quality of your model
- Classifying tables: helps you specify what types of information are present in columns and tables to yield optimal data encodings
Once the enterprise graph has been constructed, the user now specifies their business problem in natural language. Under the hood, Kopilot builds a Predictive Query, which is the blueprint for Kumo to build an end-to-end ML model based on your business graph and specific use case.
This query is used for neural architecture search to identify the best model to solve the problem. Once the model runs, you have predictions! Now, you can build as many predictive models to tackle many different use cases – all in the same sitting! No additional overhead or engineering required.
How To Get Started
The introduction of Kopilot into the Kumo ecosystem is yet another step towards Kumo’s goal of making ML an accessible part of your business strategy. Kopilot is empowered decision-making and efficiency, supercharged so you can focus on what really matters: growing your business.
