Kronos Base

Kronos Base is the largest checkpoint in the NeoQuasar Kronos family and the best choice for maximum forecast quality on financial time-series workloads. It is the top of the family's quality tier, where you trade the smaller checkpoints' cheaper serving for the strongest accuracy on demanding financial forecasting.

It uses the largest tokenizer vocabulary and deepest transformer stack in the family, keeping the shared Kronos design — a GPT-style decoder over tokens produced by the financial candlestick tokenizer. Like its siblings it is designed primarily for OHLCV candlestick data; the official examples require at least OHLC columns, with volume and amount optional. The official Kronos model cards describe pretraining on over 12B K-line records from 45 global exchanges, the corpus behind the family's zero-shot coverage of market data.

On TSFM.ai reach for Kronos Base when forecast quality on financial workloads is the priority and you can absorb the heavier checkpoint. Step down to Kronos Small for a balanced middle option, or to Kronos Mini when serving cost and throughput matter more than peak accuracy.
