Custom AI Model Development

Training, fine-tuning, and deploying custom AI models on your data, packaged behind a production inference API.

Custom AI model development covers training, fine-tuning, evaluating, and deploying models built on project-specific data — for tasks a general-purpose AI API doesn't cover, or where data can't leave your infrastructure.

Who this is for

Teams with a specific dataset and a task that off-the-shelf AI APIs don't handle well: specialized imagery, movement or sensor data, or domain-specific prediction tasks. Also a fit where data privacy rules out sending information to a third-party API.

Problems it solves

  • A task that depends on proprietary or domain-specific data no general API was trained on
  • Data privacy or compliance constraints that rule out third-party model APIs
  • The need for tighter control over latency, cost, or model behavior than an API allows

Capabilities

  • Data preparation and evaluation pipelines
  • Model training and fine-tuning in PyTorch and Keras
  • Computer vision and motion/pose-based model architectures
  • Inference API design for production consumption
  • Cloud or local deployment depending on latency, cost, and privacy requirements

Delivery process

Work starts with the data: what exists, what needs collecting, and what the model actually needs to predict or detect. From there, the model is trained, evaluated against real examples, and deployed behind an API the production application can call — not left as a standalone research artifact.

FAQ

Common questions

When should a business train its own model instead of using an API?
When the task depends on a specific data domain a general-purpose API doesn't cover well (movement data, specialized imagery), when data cannot leave your infrastructure, or when per-request API costs or latency don't work at your scale. For general tasks like standard text generation, integrating an existing API is usually faster and cheaper — see AI Development.
What does the model training process involve?
Data preparation and cleaning, choosing an appropriate architecture in PyTorch or Keras, training and evaluating against held-out data, then packaging the trained model behind an inference API for the application to call.
How are trained models deployed into production?
Models are served through a FastAPI or Laravel inference endpoint, deployed on AWS, with the production application calling that endpoint as part of a normal request — the same pattern used to bring AI-assisted feedback into the rehabilitation platform in our work.
