Our services
Prompt Engineering
+
Prompt engineering is the process of creating contextualized commands (prompts) that enable a Large Language Models (LLM) model to learn, adapt and execute tasks in real-time

At the intersection of machine learning engineering and computational linguistics, prompt engineering is best done by someone with a very deep understanding of the conceptual foundations of LLMs. Aside from the GPT4, we specialize in the use of open source models such as LLama 2 and Falcon.
LangChain Development
+
LangChain is an open-source platform designed to streamline the development, deployment, and management of large language models (LLMs) across various cloud environments, allowing data scientists and engineers to easily orchestrate and optimize LLM workflows.

While this library is bleeding edge software, we have been working with LangChain since it's advent and believe in its potential to be the leading tool for LLM-based application development.
Model Finetuning
+
Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) is a collection of methods that enable efficient adaptation of pre-trained language models (PLMs) to various downstream applications without fine-tuning all the model's parameters.

We have implemented these methods for customers and can attest to their ability to allow for fine-tuning of foundation models using consumer-grade GPUs.
Model Deployment
+
Once a model has been fine-tuned its deployment is the next issue to be addressed. Small models can be deployed on the edge to single-board computers such as Raspberry Pi and Nvidia Jetson.

In order to deploy models to the edge, we assist clients in converting models into inference-friendly CPU-compatible formats such as ONNX and GGML. Once this is complete these edge devices can become API endpoints via FastAPI allowing your company to leverage AI capabilities in the field.
If you have any ideas to develop, please contact us. We're interested in hearing about your project and offering our help.

Sermonis Background imageFAQ
What is the process of engaging with Sermonis AI?
Engagements begin with a consultation call where the business case is clearly defined. This allows our team to begin understanding exactly the kind of artificial intelligence that would be appropriate for tackling the issue at hand. In 7-10 days we provide the client a written plan of action for proceeding with the deployment of a proof-of-concept project as well as an itemized budget estimate.
What kind of solutions does Sermonis AI develop?
We have developed a variety of AI solutions for our clients. Solutions have included delivery of document classification models as well as models for chatbot assistants. In addition, we regularly provide business consultation services to CEOs and founders seeking to gain a better understanding of the rapidly evolving AI landscape.
Prompt Engineering is a task we frequently assist clients with as we are often asked to help them create assistants based on OpenAI's GPT3.5/GPT4. This includes assistants for helping students write scholarship essays, helping sales teams to customize marketing material, and assisting market researchers in conducting interviews.
For clients that seek a complete go-to-market solution we provide LangChain development services. This has involved the development of full-fledged commercial products on behalf of startups.
