⚠️WhoKnew the Future™ AI — Forecast Disclaimer

 

Forecasts are data-driven estimates, not guarantees. Accuracy depends on clean data (bot filtering + IP whitelist), 90+ days for trend forecasts, 2+ years for seasonality detection, and stable patterns. Actual results may vary due to product lifecycle, external events (e.g., virals, competitors), or data issues. Use as decision support only — combine with your business judgment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I sign up?

A: WhoKnew the Future™ is our own implementation of Meta’s Prophet AI and is included in WhoKnew Views™ Pro (our Pro-level WordPress/WooCommerce plugin).

Q: How accurate are the forecasts?

A: Meta Prophet produces forecasts comparable to skilled human analysts. Confidence is highest for short-term predictions (24hr–7 days) with 2+ years of clean data. Long-term forecasts have lower confidence. Actual results vary — see disclaimer.

Q: Why do I need 2 years for best accuracy?

A: Trend-based forecasting (available from week 1) provides basic predictions. Seasonality detection requires 2 full years to validate patterns aren’t flukes — enabling enterprise-grade forecasts with full confidence.

Q: When can I trust forecasts?

A: We recommend using forecasts for decision support after 90 days (Stage 4). It is most reliable after 365 days and beyond (Stage 6). Always weigh results against good old-fashioned marketing sense.

Q: What if my forecast is wrong?

A: Predictions are not guarantees. There’s always the factor of the unknown and random probability. This is a tool to combine with market knowledge.

Q: New products?

A: Limited forecasts <7 days. Rough estimates only. New products will take 30 to 90 days to develop their own patterns. Plus, seasonal patterns generally require analysis of up to one year of aggregate data.

Q: Export forecasts?

A: Yes — “Export Graph” for charts with overlays. You can even whitelist the graph if you’re an agency.

Q: Site speed impact?

A: None — admin-only calculations. WhoKnew the Future™ AI is currently included in our WhoKnew Views™ Pro plug-in.

Q: Data privacy?

Your data stays yours. WhoKnew the Future™ AI processes forecasts via SSL-encrypted, JWT-authenticated connection to our Google Cloud Run server. Meta Prophet analyzes your data in real-time and generates predictions — but doesn’t store, log, or retain any of your WooCommerce data.

Once the forecast is generated and returned to your WordPress site, the processing session ends and your data is immediately discarded from the server. We never share, sell, or access your store’s historical data. All forecasts are cached locally in your WordPress database for performance.

In short: SSL + JWT encryption → Real-time Prophet analysis → Instant discard. Zero data retention.
