For companies with sensitive data

Stop renting your intelligence.

Harpoon helps you own AI that specializes in your business: tested on your real cases, trained on your expertise, deployed where you decide, and improving as you work.

Audit report · Claims handlingFictional example

Task tested: propose a decision on a home insurance claim, using 500 claims your handlers have already settled.

  • Rented model91 %
    $1.40 per 100 claimsData stays with the provider
  • Open model, untrained84 %
    $0.30 per 100 claimsData stays with you
  • Open model, trained on your claims93 %
    $0.35 per 100 claimsData stays with you

Conclusion: train an open model for this task, and keep the rented model for the most complex claims.

Downloading an open model takes minutes. Making it a tool your company can rely on is a different job. It takes measuring, passing on your expertise and fixing mistakes, again and again. That's what we do with you.

The method

We start by measuring. The rest follows.

  1. 01

    Measure

    Your cases and past decisions become a set of tests. They show, with numbers, what AI gets right and wrong on your work.

  2. 02

    Train

    With your experts, we turn your know-how into training data for an open model that specializes in your tasks.

  3. 03

    Deploy

    The model runs where your rules require: on your own infrastructure or with the host you choose.

  4. 04

    Keep improving

    Every production mistake becomes a new test. When a new open model comes out, we run everything again, and you only switch if it does better.

What we do

Move step by step, with proof in hand.

01

The audit

The starting point. On one precise task, we compare rented models and open models on your real cases.

  • Your tests, which belong to you
  • The comparison: quality, cost, confidentiality
  • A clear recommendation, even if that means keep renting
02

Your model

If the audit justifies it, we train a model on your expertise and deploy it in your environment.

  • A specialized model whose files you keep
  • Training data built with your experts
  • A deployment that fits your rules
03

Ongoing improvement

A model goes stale quickly. We improve it as your business learns and carry it forward to each new generation.

  • Mistakes turned into tests and fixes
  • New models evaluated as they come out
  • A record of every version and its results

Questions

Should we stop using frontier models?

No. They are often still the best for the hardest problems. The goal is to own what matters for your repeated, sensitive tasks, and keep renting the rest when that's the right call.

Is owning a model always better?

No, and that's exactly what the audit checks. If a rented model is still the best choice for your task, the report will say so.

What do we need to get started?

One precise, repeated task, examples your teams have already handled, and a subject-matter expert who can confirm what a good answer looks like.

What happens when a better model comes out?

Your tests and data carry over. We evaluate the new model on your tests, train it if needed, and you only switch if the results are better.
