Born
Applied Intelligence

What Born builds

Five capabilities.
One complete stack.

Every service maps to a concrete deliverable. No consulting decks, no vague "AI strategy". You get working artifacts: model weights, datasets, eval harnesses, and running workflows.

Every engagement has defined success criteria

Every deliverable is documented

Honest measurement before and after

01LoRA

Model Adaptation & Fine-Tuning

Take a foundation model. Make it yours.

We adapt pre-trained language models to specific domains, tasks, and output requirements using LoRA, QLoRA, and full-parameter fine-tuning. Every engagement starts with task framing and ends with a packaged, documented checkpoint.

02JSONL

Dataset Engineering

Training data built for real performance.

We design and build task-specific datasets from scratch: synthetic generation, teacher model distillation, human-curated examples, quality filtering, and YAML-manifest provenance. The dataset is a first-class artifact, not an afterthought.

03Eval harnesses

Evaluation Systems

Measurement that reflects actual work.

We build evaluation harnesses that test what matters for your use case — not generic leaderboard proxies. Baseline measurement, failure mode analysis, judged evals, pass/fail harnesses, and a release-ready claims review before you ship.

04Tool use

Agent Workflows

The model is one part. We build the rest.

We design and implement multi-step AI workflows: tool calling, verification loops, state management, and recovery paths. Agent systems that are reliable in production, not just in demos.

05RunPod

GPU Training & Inference Setup

From raw hardware to a running experiment.

We set up and manage remote GPU training environments: RunPod, Lambda, or your own cluster. CUDA compatibility, HuggingFace Trainer or Unsloth configuration, VRAM budgeting, and artifact packaging for each run.

How it works

What to expect.

Full methodology
01

Scoping call

We understand your task, constraints, and success criteria before quoting anything.

02

Baseline audit

We measure what the base model can already do — this anchors everything that follows.

03

Proposal & plan

A written technical proposal with methodology, timeline, and deliverable list.

04

Execution

We build the data, run the training, measure the results — with weekly written updates.

05

Delivery & handoff

Artifacts packaged with documentation, run notes, and post-delivery Q&A included.
