Training Data Solutions

New Training Data

We’ll craft comprehensive prompts and answers across a variety of dimensions such as tone, delivery format, justification and more. Working closely with your team we’ll identify the right distribution of data that needs to be created to build a foundational set of training data or fine-tune an existing LLM.

Data Augmentation

Our experts will augment your training data by creating additional prompts based on examples and instructions from your application. We can also validate user-written responses as well as review and rewrite prompts generated by a model.

Synthetic Data

When real training data is too difficult or not cost effective to obtain, our team can create synthetic data sets to help train your model. Our human-in-the-loop approach ensures the highest level of quality, delivering synthetic data that can help improve model performance and reduce hallucinations, bias, and other errors.

Edge Case Generation

Our skilled team will analyze the distribution of prompts used with your model to identify gaps and potential areas of non-standard behavior. We then leverage these insights to design targeted test prompts to help train your model for a wider range of scenarios.

APPROACH

Our Proprietary Approach to Data Creation

We’ll work with your internal specialists and domain experts to understand your requirements. Then we’ll align on prompt distribution targets including various dimensions such as tone, delivery format, justification and more.

Our AI specialists leverage their expertise to write high quality prompts along with corresponding answers across varying formats and dimensions. We’ll curate a highly specialized set of data to help streamline the model development process.

After an initial set of data has been created we’ll work with your team to review the prompts and responses created to ensure the data aligns with the intended purpose of the generative model or LLM. If needed, our teams will collaborate closely to recalibrate.

Once an initial set of prompts and responses has been created. Our team will scale the process by coming up with multiple variations of prompts to augment your training data. We’ll also use proprietary models to help create variants of human generated prompts to create large-scale tests.

When training data is complete, we follow a structured delivery process to ensure smooth integration with your generative model or LLM training pipeline. We offer flexible and customizable delivery formats, APIs, and the option for custom API integrations to support rapid development of models.

OTHER SOLUTIONS

Generative AI and LLM Capabilities

With over 15 years of industry experience, Sama’s data annotation and validation solutions help you build more accurate GenAI and LLMs—faster.

Model Validation & Fact Checking

Our data experts will review your model’s responses for accuracy, identify and highlight any errors, and rewrite responses to improve model performance, combining workflow automation with our human-in-the-loop approach to ensure speed and quality.

Instruction Following

Our team can assess how well your Gen AI model understands, interprets, and executes instructions. We’ll help you identify where your model doesn’t comply, including why a response was selected. Any issues are highlighted and flagged, making it easier and more efficient to fine-tune.

Preference Ranking

Sama’s highly trained team of experts can help you improve the quality and alignment of model outputs through feedback loops, RLHF, and more. With domain expertise across multiple industries and functions, we can analyze and rank model responses, indicate the rationale behind each choice, and highlight any issues within the outputs.

Image & Video Captioning

Sama can help you scale captioning for a variety of modalities. Our team of experts will describe the content of visual inputs, verify if the captions match, and rewrite captions as needed to retrain the model to reduce errors and hallucinations. Sama’s proprietary platform makes sampling easy and our collaborative workflows help reduce subjectivity and ambiguity from project kickoff.

Synthetic Data Creation

When real training data is too difficult or not cost effective to obtain, our team can create synthetic data sets to help train your model, using a human-in-the-loop approach to ensure the highest level of quality. Our team will define objectives for your data, including a specific domain or other required parameters, and test outputs for quality and accuracy by comparing them against outputs from authentic data.
