LLM Fine-Tuning in Bath
Fine-tuning language models on Bath organisations' own examples, where prompting has hit a genuine ceiling. Fine-tuning teaches a model a style, a format or a task — it does not teach it facts, which is the single most common misunderstanding and the reason a good many fine-tuning projects deliver nothing.
Why this comes up
The problem
Prompts have grown to several pages trying to pin down the output format, and results are still inconsistent. Every new edge case makes the prompt longer and the behaviour less predictable.
What you get
What we deliver
- A judgement on whether the problem is a fine-tuning problem or a retrieval one
- Training examples assembled and made consistent, which is where quality is won or lost
- A held-out evaluation set kept separate, so results are not self-congratulatory
- Fine-tuning run and compared against the prompted baseline
- Cost comparison, since a smaller tuned model often beats a larger prompted one
- A re-training path for when your requirements change, as they will

LLM Fine-Tuning in Bath — common questions
- Will fine-tuning teach the model our company information?
- No, and this is the expensive misconception. Fine-tuning shapes behaviour — tone, structure, task format. Facts belong in retrieval, where they can be updated by editing a document rather than by re-training a model.
- When is fine-tuning the right call?
- When you need a consistent output format, a specific house style, or a narrow classification the model keeps getting subtly wrong — and when you have examples demonstrating the right answer. Those conditions together are less common than the interest in fine-tuning suggests.
- Can it reduce our costs?
- Often, yes. A fine-tuned smaller model can match a much larger prompted one on a narrow task, at lower cost per request and with a far shorter prompt. At high volume that is frequently the strongest argument for doing it.
- How many examples do we need?
- Fewer than most people expect — often a few hundred well-chosen, consistent ones. Consistency is the constraint: if two examples handle the same situation differently, you are training the model to be unpredictable in exactly that situation.
- Do you work with businesses across Somerset?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South West, including Bath and the surrounding Somerset area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Bath businesses do you usually work with?
- Visitor booking and ticketing for heritage operators, and brand work for independents competing on a very crowded high street. Beyond that we work across Tourism & Heritage, Higher Education, Professional Services, Retail and Software.
- Do you cover the areas around Bath?
- Yes — we work throughout South West, including Bristol, Salisbury, Gloucester. Bath is an urban area of roughly 95,000+, and we take on work across the wider Somerset region rather than the city boundary alone.
