## In brief

- Amazon Science published a blog post introducing Mitra-v2, which scales synthetic pretraining for tabular foundation models.
- Tabular data, with rows as customers, transactions or interactions and columns as attributes, underpins much business data.
- The models are aimed at predicting missing attributes, such as customer retention likelihood or expected demand.

## Why it matters

It describes an approach to pretraining foundation models on synthetic tabular data, which could reduce reliance on large real datasets for prediction tasks on business tables.
