Data Science
Statistical modeling only earns its cost when it answers a specific business question. SoftSapien builds models for concrete problems, from churn prediction to demand forecasting, rather than open-ended exploratory analysis.
What's Included
How This Works
- Modeling scoped to a specific business question, defined before work starts
- Validation against historical outcomes alongside statistical fit
- Handoff of both the model and the reasoning behind it, so your team can act on it

Data Science FAQ
What business questions are a good fit for this?
Anything with enough historical data to model against and a clear decision the answer would inform, like churn risk or demand forecasting.
Do you deliver a one-time analysis or an ongoing model?
Either, depending on whether the underlying question is a one-time decision or something that needs continuous forecasting.
What does data science consulting actually involve?
Modeling scoped to a specific business question, validation against historical outcomes, and handoff of both the model and the reasoning behind it.
How much does a data science engagement cost?
Cost depends on data availability and question complexity. We scope cost after reviewing your data and the decision it needs to inform.
How long does a data science engagement take?
A focused analysis answering one business question can complete in a few weeks. Ongoing forecasting models are scoped as a continuing engagement.
Who owns the model and analysis once the engagement closes?
You do. Model code, analysis documentation, and the underlying reasoning transfer to your organization at handoff.
How much historical data do we need to get started?
Enough to validate the model against real historical outcomes. We assess data sufficiency during the scoping phase before committing to a build.
What industries have you done churn or demand forecasting for?
Subscription businesses, logistics and freight, retail, and financial services, among others.
Can your team explain the model's reasoning to our non-technical stakeholders?
Yes. Handoff includes the reasoning behind the model, not just the code, so your team can act on it directly.
How quickly can you start a data science engagement?
Every inquiry gets a response within 2 business hours.
