What is Model Preview?
Model Preview gives you a quick sneak peek at your model's performance in just seconds. Think of it as a test drive before the full journey. You'll get an early look at performance metrics, see which features are pulling their weight, and spot potential issues before investing time in full training.
This means you can catch data hiccups, validate your setup, and make tweaks on the fly. No more crossing your fingers and hoping everything works after a long training run.
This is in real time! 👆
Why you'll love it?
Speed is the name of the game here. Instead of running full training to discover a problem, you get instant feedback that helps you:
Validate your data structure in seconds, not hours
Confirm your features are behaving the way you expect
Identify and fix issues before they become time-sinks
Move forward with confidence (or pivot quickly if needed)
How to use Model Preview
Once all your datasets pass validation, you'll see the Quick Model Preview button appear. That's your cue.
Click it, wait a few seconds, and you'll have a lightweight version of your model ready to review. You'll see performance metrics, feature importance rankings, and how your predictions are shaping up.
From there? Either refine your notebook queries based on what you learned, or if everything looks solid, jump straight into full training. Your call.
The bottom line
Model Preview turns "hope for the best" into "know before you go." It's that extra bit of assurance that your time and effort are going in the right direction.
