Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Salmocast and salmon price intelligence

Yes. Salmocast is built on machine learning from the ground up. Our core price forecasting engine uses LightGBM, a gradient boosting framework, trained on 48 real-time signals including biological data, export volumes, weather patterns, and market sentiment. Every prediction includes SHAP explanations so you can see exactly which factors are driving the forecast.

Our forecasts are publicly verified against the SISALMONI benchmark published by Fish Pool ASA. We track direction accuracy (did we correctly predict if prices would rise or fall?) and absolute error. Our track record is fully transparent on the homepage — no black boxes. Current direction accuracy exceeds 85% on verified weeks.

We ingest data from 15+ primary sources including: Fiskeridirektoratet (farm registries), BarentsWatch (lice counts, sea temperatures), Fish Pool ASA (spot prices, forward curves), Statistics Norway (export volumes), ECB (exchange rates), NOAA (climate indices), and industry news feeds. All data is machine-readable and refreshed automatically.

Yes. We offer API access for programmatic integration with your existing systems. Forecast data, supply pressure indices, and price signals can be pulled directly into your ERP, trading platform, or internal dashboards. Contact our team to discuss integration options for enterprise deployments.

For most users, you can start using Salmocast immediately after signup — no implementation required. Just log in and access the platform. For enterprise clients requiring API integration or custom data feeds, typical setup takes 1-2 weeks depending on your technical requirements.

Absolutely. We offer tiered pricing designed for organizations of all sizes. Solo traders and small producers can access core forecasting features affordably, while larger enterprises can unlock advanced capabilities like API access, historical data exports, and custom alerting. Start with a free trial to evaluate fit.

ROI varies by use case, but our clients typically see value through better-timed purchasing decisions, improved contract negotiations, and reduced exposure to price volatility. A single well-timed procurement decision can save multiples of the annual subscription cost. Request a demo to discuss your specific situation.

Forecasts are updated every Tuesday after Fish Pool publishes the official SISALMONI spot price. This ensures our model always trains on the latest confirmed market data. Supply pressure indices and news sentiment update throughout the week as new data arrives.
