About Boston Predictive Analytics

Our humble beginning started with the creation of a math and statistics tutoring site. We soon realized, our top-notch statisticians and mathematicians can solve more complex problems, and we started Boston Predictive Analytics providing low cost business intelligence solutions using machine learning. However, we still help budding statisticians with their statistics and probability questions. Here is the link, if you have statistics questions that you are afraid to ask - Get Statistics help.

Our presence at the MIT campus and within few hundred feet from the Harvard University gives us access to exceptional talent. Like the best hospitals are tightly connected to academic world, our strong affinity towards learning and teaching empowers us to become the best in our field. We are ready to solve your most difficult challenges in a cost effective way.
