Custom AI Model Development

Custom AI ModelDevelopment and Training

Off-the-shelf AI models deliver generic results. Petronella Technology Group builds, fine-tunes, and deploys custom AI models trained on your proprietary data for domain-specific performance that general models cannot match. Private infrastructure options ensure your training data never leaves your control.

What We Deliver

Custom Model Development Services

From model selection through production deployment, we handle the full AI model lifecycle with security embedded at every stage.

Model Selection and Sizing

We evaluate your use case against available models (Llama, Mistral, Phi, Qwen) and recommend the best fit for your performance, hardware, and compliance needs.

Fine-Tuning on Your Data

LoRA, QLoRA, and full fine-tuning approaches on your domain data. Training happens entirely within your environment for complete data sovereignty.

RAG Pipeline Development

Retrieval-augmented generation that grounds model outputs in your actual documents and knowledge bases for accurate, citation-backed responses.

Production Deployment

Optimized inference with quantization, batching, and tensor parallelism. Deployed on private infrastructure or managed cloud.

Security Hardening

Prompt injection defenses, input validation, output filtering, and audit logging following NIST and OWASP LLM Top 10 standards.

Monitoring and Optimization

24/7 monitoring of model health, inference latency, GPU utilization, and error rates with proactive alerting.

The Transformation

Generic vs. Custom Models

Before

Generic Model Responses

General-purpose models miss industry terminology, document formats, and domain-specific patterns.

Per-Token API Costs

Commercial API pricing scales linearly with usage, making high-volume workloads expensive.

Data Sent to Third Parties

Every prompt and response traverses provider infrastructure outside your security boundary.

After

Domain-Specific Accuracy

Models fine-tuned on your data understand your terminology, workflows, and regulatory context.

Fixed Infrastructure Cost

Unlimited inference at predictable cost. Organizations processing 1M+ tokens daily see 60-80% savings.

Complete Data Sovereignty

All training and inference runs within your controlled environment with zero external data exposure.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What hardware do we need for custom model training?

A 7B parameter model runs on a single NVIDIA A100 or H100 GPU. 70B models require 2-4 GPUs. We handle all hardware sizing and can deploy on your existing GPU infrastructure if compatible.

Which models work best for fine-tuning?

Llama 3.1, Mistral, and Qwen 2.5 are current leaders for general-purpose deployment. For specialized tasks, smaller fine-tuned models often outperform larger general models at lower cost.

Can you deploy in air-gapped environments?

Yes. We regularly deploy in CMMC and classified environments with no internet connectivity. All model weights and dependencies are packaged for offline installation.

How does cost compare to API pricing?

At moderate usage (500K+ tokens/day), private deployment typically breaks even within 6-12 months. At high usage (5M+/day), costs are 60-80% less annually.
