Quality, detail and reliability

Teams in Japan and Korea expect precise specifications, thorough testing and schedules that hold. We plan in detail, report regularly and treat quality as non-negotiable.

01

Detailed specifications

Written requirements, screen specifications and acceptance criteria agreed before development.

02

Thorough testing

Automated and manual testing with reports at every milestone.

03

Reliable schedules

Realistic plans, regular written progress reports and early warning of any risk.

04

Long-term partnership

The same team maintains and improves the product after launch.

What we do

What we build with LLMs

Custom LLM applications

Assistants, copilots and internal tools built around your workflows, not a generic chat window.

LLM integration

Add GPT, Claude or Gemini to your existing product through secure, well-tested APIs.

Open-source and private models

Deploy Llama and other open models on your own cloud when data must stay in-house.

Fine-tuning and evaluation

Tune models on your examples and measure accuracy with test sets before and after launch.

Guardrails and safety

Input and output filtering, PII masking, grounding checks and human review where needed.

Cost and latency optimisation

Model routing, caching and prompt design that keep responses fast and bills predictable.

In depth

How we approach LLM development

Choosing the right model

There is no single best model. We compare OpenAI, Claude, Gemini and open-source options on your real tasks for accuracy, speed, cost and data handling, and design the app so the model can be swapped later without a rewrite.

Grounded in your data

Most business value comes from connecting the model to your documents, databases and tools. We use retrieval (RAG), function calling and agents so answers come from your information and actions happen in your systems.

Built for production, not demos

We add evaluation test sets, logging, monitoring, rate limits, fallbacks and cost alerts from day one, so the app keeps working well after launch and you can see exactly what it is doing.

Security and compliance

Data minimisation, encryption, access control and providers configured not to train on your data. For healthcare we build to HIPAA requirements with BAAs in place for any service that touches PHI.

Working with us from South Korea

Remote, but close to South Korea

Time-zone overlap

South Korea is three and a half hours ahead of India, so our working days overlap for most of your afternoon.

Korea's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA)

We design to PIPA: consent, purpose limits, security controls and rules for overseas transfers, and we sign NDAs before work starts.

Billing

Invoices in Korean won (KRW) or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.
