LLM & generative AI

LLM & generative AI

The reasoning layer — models that know your domain, grounded in your documents, exposed to your systems through interfaces you control.

What does custom LLM development involve?

Custom LLM work means adapting a language model to your domain — through prompt architecture, retrieval over your own documents, fine-tuning, or self-hosted deployment. The goal is a model that answers accurately in your context, with citations, guardrails and costs you can predict.

Grounding beats raw capability

A general model that has never seen your pricing, your policies or your product catalogue will answer confidently and be wrong in ways your customers notice. Almost every useful deployment is therefore a retrieval problem before it is a model problem: get the right context in front of the model, cite the source, and refuse when the answer is not in scope.

Fine-tuning is worth it for tone, format and narrow classification tasks. Retrieval is worth it for facts. Choosing wrongly between them is the most expensive mistake in this category, so it is the first thing we settle.

Frequently asked

Questions we get about this

Do we need to train our own model?

Almost certainly not. Training from scratch costs millions and is the wrong answer for nearly every business problem. Retrieval over your own content, careful prompt architecture, and occasionally a light fine-tune will get you further for a fraction of the cost.

Can we keep our data private?

Yes. Options range from enterprise API tiers with no-training guarantees, through private cloud deployment, to fully self-hosted open-weight models on your own infrastructure. The trade-off is cost and quality against control, and we work through it explicitly rather than defaulting.

How do you stop it making things up?

Retrieval with citations, an explicit refusal path when the answer is not in the source material, and evaluation sets built from real questions before launch. Hallucination is a design problem, not an unavoidable property.
