Custom AI models, judged on your test set

Public models know a little about everything. Yours has to know your contracts, your products and your edge cases. We build the evaluation set first, run the best off-the-shelf models against it, and train a custom one only where they fall short.

Six ways to make a model yours.

Few problems need a model trained from scratch. Most need one or two of these, chosen after we measure where the baseline falls short.

Custom Training

Training or continued pre-training on proprietary data, for domains where public models have nothing to learn from.

Fine-tuning (LoRA/RLHF)

Parameter-efficient tuning that teaches an open model your terminology, output format and house rules, at a fraction of full-training cost.

RAG Architecture

Retrieval over your documents, tickets and databases. Answers cite a source you control and change when the source does.

Agentic AI

Agents that call your tools and APIs to finish multi-step tasks. Every action is logged; high-stakes steps wait for a human.

MLOps

Training, evaluation and release pipelines. A new model version ships only after it clears the same test set as the last one.

System Integration

Connectors into ERP, CRM and internal tools, so output lands where people already work. ERP is one of our own lines of business.

When custom wins, and when it doesn't.

A public model is often the right call. These are the dimensions that tip the decision one way or the other.

When custom wins, and when it doesn't.

Three reasons not to build a custom model.

Custom models cost money to build and attention to run. If any of these hold, stop and fix that first.

A prompt already clears the bar

If a well-prompted public model passes your evaluation set, training adds cost, not accuracy. The audit will show it.

Nobody can define a right answer

A model can't be judged without examples of correct output. If your experts disagree on what correct looks like, settle that before any training run.

No one will own it after launch

Models drift as your data moves. Without someone watching the metrics and approving retraining, a custom model decays into a liability.

What buyers ask before a build.

That depends on how ready your data is and how deep the integration goes, so we don't quote a duration before the audit. The audit produces a phased plan instead: what gets built, in what order, and what has to be true before each phase begins.

Pick one decision.
Measure before you build.

Tell us which decision a model should support and what a wrong answer costs. The first conversation covers your data and how the result will be judged. If an off-the-shelf model already passes, that is the answer you get.
