Data stage

Training Data & RLHF

A model can only be as good as the data it learns from. We turn your experts' judgement into training data, so the model answers the way they would.

Best for

Regulated or specialist domains where only an expert can judge what a good answer is.

How it runs

Four steps, each with something you keep

  1. Step 1

    Write the rubric

    Work with your subject-matter experts to turn their judgement into scoring criteria.

    Annotation guidelinesDefinitions of a good answer, with worked examples reviewers can apply consistently.

  2. Step 2

    Calibrate reviewers

    Run a pilot batch and measure agreement between reviewers. Rewrite the guidelines until it's high.

    Calibrated reviewer poolDomain reviewers whose agreement scores meet the agreed threshold.

  3. Step 3

    Label at volume

    Produce data at scale, with a senior reviewer settling disagreements and spot-checking quality.

    Instruction and preference datasetsPrompt-response pairs and ranked comparisons, each carrying agreement scores.

  4. Step 4

    Align

    Train with DPO, or with a reward model plus RL, then re-score against the rubric.

    Aligned checkpointReady for evaluation against your release criteria.

FAQ

Training Data & RLHF: common questions

Can our own staff do the labelling?

Yes, and for highly specialised domains that's often best. We provide the tooling, training, and quality checks, and your experts supply the judgement.

Is synthetic data safe to train on?

In moderation and with human review, yes. We use it to fill rare edge cases, never as the whole dataset, and we test on real data only.
