LLM.co Launches Custom Large Language Model Development Services Powered by DEV.co

(Isstories Editorial):- Bentonville, Arkansas Sep 2, 2025 (Issuewire.com) – LLM.co, a leader in secure and private large language model deployment, today announced the official release of its Custom LLM Development Services, developed in collaboration with software engineering firm DEV.co. The new offering allows enterprises to build, train, and deploy tailored LLMs that are context-aware, privacy-first, and production-ready for real-world use.

“We’re moving from one-size-fits-all AI to purpose-built intelligence,” said Nate Nead, CEO of LLM.co. “Our partnership with DEV.co enables businesses to build LLMs that are not just smarter–but contextually aware, private, and optimized for deployment in secure environments.”

As organizations increase their reliance on artificial intelligence, off-the-shelf public models often fail to meet the nuanced needs of heavily regulated industries such as law, finance, healthcare, and manufacturing. These sectors require LLMs that understand internal workflows, industry-specific terminology, and sensitive data–all while maintaining strict compliance with frameworks like SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA.

LLM.co’s new custom services aim to fill this gap by delivering end-to-end support for enterprise AI adoption, from dataset ingestion and architecture design to on-prem deployment and UI integration.

“Every vertical has its own language,” said Eric Lamanna, VP of Business Development at DEV.co. “Our role is to ensure the model speaks it fluently–and securely–by weaving the client’s proprietary data into every layer of training and deployment.”

What the Service Includes

LLM.co’s Custom LLM Development Services provide organizations with a full-stack AI solution that includes:

  • Model Training & Fine-Tuning
    On popular open-source architectures like Mistral, LLaMA, Phi-3, and Mixtral, using private datasets (contracts, PDFs, SQL, APIs, CRMs, and more)

  • RAG Pipelines
    Retrieval-augmented generation leveraging vector databases like QDrant, Pinecone, or Weaviate for real-time, grounded responses

  • Private & On-Prem Deployment
    Air-gapped boxes and hybrid cloud setups for full control over data access, latency, and compliance

  • Evaluation & Alignment
    Output testing with tools like HELM, TruthfulQA, and LLM-as-a-Judge for benchmark performance and hallucination mitigation

  • Custom Interfaces & App Integration
    Seamless front-end interfaces and dashboard integrations for both internal teams and end users

“The enterprises we work with aren’t just experimenting–they’re operationalizing AI,” said Samuel Edwards, CMO of LLM.co. “Our platform gives them the flexibility to deploy LLMs with the same confidence they have in their internal systems.”
