Fine-Tuning an Open Model on Your Company’s Data FAQs
Do we need fine-tuning, or just document search?
Document search (RAG) usually comes first: it answers from your files and stays current as they change. Fine-tuning helps when the model must learn a style, a format or a specialized task. We tell you honestly which you need.
How much data does it take?
Often a few hundred to a few thousand good examples. Quality matters more than quantity, and we help you gather and clean them.
Is a private model as good as ChatGPT or Claude?
For drafting, summarizing, searching your documents and most everyday work, today’s open models are very capable. For the hardest reasoning the largest cloud models still lead, which is why many companies run a hybrid: sensitive work stays local and approved tasks can use a cloud model.
What hardware does it take?
Anything from a recent computer with plenty of memory for one person, to a GPU workstation for a team, to a dedicated multi-GPU server for a whole company. We size it to your users, models and documents and quote it upfront.
