Lyon trains a foundation model from scratch on a company's own customer event data, producing per-customer embeddings that power downstream predictions such as churn, credit risk, fraud, collections, income, and cross-sell. The model runs inside the customer's own cloud (AWS, GCP, or Azure) with the customer owning the weights and keeping data isolated.
