Plan with confidence

Xcast is a machine learning-based weather prediction technology (MLWP) that underpins the Xweather Insight service. Xcast technology enhances short-term forecast accuracy and produces unique actionable insights by using local measurements and observations.

Xcast-powered hyperlocal forecasts are up to 50% more accurate than the short-term forecasts generated by traditional numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. What's more, Xcast also reduces the number of large errors (greater than 2.5 °C) in 24-hour temperature forecasts by up to 59%.
