# Predictions

The following sections describe the components to making predictions in DataRobot:

- Generate predictions : Initiate a prediction job with the Model.request_predictions() method. This method can use either a training dataset or predictions dataset for scoring.
- Batch predictions : Score large sets of data with batch predictions. You can define jobs and their schedule.
- Prediction API : Use DataRobot’s Prediction API . to make predictions on both a dedicated and/or a standalone prediction server.
- Scoring Code : Qualifying models allow you to export Scoring Code and use DataRobot-generated models outside of the platform
