<p>Jua.ai - Accuracy beyond expectation. Use beyond belief. The world's first end to end deep learning model for weather forecasting, delivered on an intuitive platform for anyone to customise it. Startups, governments and large companies alike can now develop global, high frequency and high accuracy weather models within days.</p>
<p>Jua&rsquo;s mission is focused on achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI) through a deep exploration of physics, the universe, and their interaction with the human civilisation. We are initially building the world's largest AI weather forecasting model so far and - to our knowledge - the first truly end to end one. This will help energy companies deal with weather volatility by way of significantly better and faster prediction as well as much more flexible extrapolation of insights.</p>
