Domain-specific expert data and reinforcement-learning environment company
Build curated training data, evaluation datasets, and verifiable reinforcement-learning environments for a specific expert domain, using practitioners' judgment rather than treating datasets as generic files.

Problem: General-purpose models fail when production data differs from training data, when interfaces change, or when domain-specific judgments and preferences are absent. Manual expert labeling is expensive, difficult to scale, vulnerable to noise, and often lacks provenance.
For: AI companies and enterprises building agents for domains such as medicine, accounting, law, trading, customer support, or software engineering.
