WHAT SETS iMERIT

EXPERTS APART?

TEAMWORK VS TASKWORK

The program is not gig-style labeling. Scholars collaborate, provide reasoning, and work through iterative feedback cycles.
COGNITIVE EXCELLENCE

Scholars bring both deep expertise and high-level reasoning to help shape AI beyond surface-level input.
SCALE & FLEXIBILITY

The program attracts top talent globally, leveraging diverse insights while scaling to meet growing GenAI demands.

GENERATIVE AI

FINE TUNING WITH EXPERTS

Leverage domain specific experts to evaluate model outputs and provide data inputs for improved model precision.

WHERE EXPERTS MAKE A DIFFERENCE

  1. Red Teaming: Teasing your model with inappropriate and malicious prompts to verify its guardrails.
  2. Prompt & Response Pairs: Create clean prompt and response pairs to expand your corpus and strengthen the models expertise.
  3. Model Evaluation & Comparison: Evaluating model outputs based on specific criteria to optimize model selection.

USE CASES

iMerit Scholars are educated at the graduate level or higher, frequently multilingual or with multi-domain capabilities, and are invited based on their deep experience in specialized fields. They are experts in fields such as medicine, STEM, computer science, psychology, linguistics, and the humanities. These Scholars are instrumental in the fine-tuning, safety training, and problem-solving needed for next-generation AI performance.

CASE STUDY

Creating “Reasoning” Data for LLM Training

GLOBAL CONSUMER TECH COMPANY

Partnered with iMerit to create a diverse set of prompt-response pairs across various domains to improve LLM accuracy

iMerit provided 80 experts on topics of applied mathematics, law, biology, linguistics, philosophy, journalism, world affairs, and economics.

This resulted in very high accuracy and efficiency, allowing iMerit to deliver high-quality data LLM training data with step by step reasoning, desired domain coverage and high relevance. By setting a new standard in Al deployment, iMerit ensured the client’s LLMs were robust, reliable, and ready for diverse applications in the global market.
