Dextra Labs
Custom Model Training and Fine-Tuning
The problem this solves
Choosing custom model training when simpler approaches would work
Dextra Labs trains or fine-tunes models on a client's proprietary data when a use case genuinely requires it beyond prompt engineering on a foundation model. The offering is framed around when custom training is warranted and when simpler approaches would deliver comparable results.
Novel practice
Exhaust prompt engineering and RAG before fine-tuning
“This is worth stating clearly because some consulting firms default to custom training when prompt engineering or RAG-based approaches would deliver comparable results at a fraction of the cost. If a firm recommends fine-tuning before exploring simpler approaches, ask them to justify why.”
