Custom AI engineering, not generic AI wrappers
Most "AI features" on the market are thin wrappers around a single foundation model API call, with no domain-specific tuning and no monitoring once deployed. Algosoft builds AI the way a serious engineering team should — choosing between fine-tuning an existing foundation model or building a custom model based on what the use case actually needs, then monitoring it in production.
We design data handling and model training pipelines aligned to the Privacy Act 1988 and Australian data residency expectations, so AI adoption doesn't create a compliance liability.
This service pairs with our AI solutions for financial services and cloud native application development for businesses building AI into a broader platform.
Fine-tuned foundation models or custom models, chosen by use case fit.
Production monitoring that catches model drift before it costs you.
Data handling and training pipelines compliant with Australian privacy law.
