What We Predict does

We Predict is a UK-based predictive analytics company founded in 2009 and headquartered in Swansea, offering what it describes as "hyper-vertically focused predictive analytics, as a service." The company built vertical-specific forecasting capabilities, with documented commercial traction in the insurance sector (evidenced by Munich Re Ventures' lead investment in a $4 million round in October 2017 alongside Breed Reply and the Development Bank of Wales) and early-stage presence in UK healthcare (via a $139,532 SBRI Healthcare grant in March 2014). We Predict operated with a small team of 11-50 employees under founder-CEO James Davies and raised approximately $4.14 million in total disclosed funding across its independent history.

The company has since been acquired by or fully integrated into J.D. Power: the wepredict.com domain now redirects to a J.D. Power 404 error page, the operating status is recorded as "acquired," and J.D. Power is listed as the parent strategic operating company. We Predict's predictive-analytics capability now sits within J.D. Power's broader automotive intelligence portfolio, which spans OEM, dealer, lending, leasing, insurance, remarketing, aftermarket, and government segments. No product details, pricing, customer logos, patent portfolio, or API/integration surface were disclosed in the available source data, limiting deeper technical or commercial characterization of the standalone business.
