What are Predictive Analytics?

Predictive Analytics is the practice of using data, statistical methods, and machine learning models to forecast future outcomes or trends. By analyzing patterns in historical data, these techniques can estimate the likelihood of events such as customer behavior, equipment failures, or market changes. Organizations use predictive analytics to make more informed decisions, anticipate risks, and identify opportunities before they occur.
