Harvey is an AI assistant built for law firms and in-house legal teams. Here is what it does well on research and contract review, and…
Managed vendor or self-hosted tool? A practical framework for deciding how to source labeled data, with the cost, quality, and control trade-offs spelled out.
Scale AI provides managed labeling, RLHF data, and model evaluation for teams that would rather buy data quality than build it. Here is how the…
Manual labeling does not scale. Use Label Studio's ML backend to pre-label with a model, then retrain on the corrected annotations in a loop.
Label Studio is a free, open-source tool for labeling images, text, and audio. Set up a project, define bounding boxes, and export annotations for training.
Artifacts give your datasets and model weights a version history. Learn how to log, promote, and roll back models so any result can be reproduced.
Stop guessing which hyperparameters gave you the best model. W&B logs every run, metric, and artifact so you can compare them side by side.
Wire a persistent Chroma store into a LangChain retrieval chain so your app answers questions from your own documents instead of the model's memory.
Chroma is the easiest vector store to start with: it runs in-process and saves to a folder. Here is how to persist it, query it,…
Vector search misses exact product codes; keyword search misses paraphrases. Hybrid search in Weaviate does both. Here is how to rank, weight, and tune it.
Weaviate is an open-source vector database for semantic search. Here is how to run it locally with Docker, create a collection, and store your first…
