What changes when it is telecommunications
Orqent Labs fine-tunes and distils models for teams with genuine volume, where the economics of inference have started to matter more than the ceiling of capability.
In telecommunications, subscriber volume means even small error rates become large absolute numbers. That single fact reshapes how custom model fine-tuning has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.
The workload we are most often asked to take on first is customer service automation, usually integrated against network management. Integration comes before intelligence. A model that cannot reach your systems of record is a demo with good manners.
Built by engineers who ship production systems, not by a practice that subcontracts the build. You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.

Questions from this sector
Can it handle our call volume?
Yes, voice and chat automation are built to scale horizontally, and we load-test against your actual peak rather than an average.
How accurate is churn prediction?
Good enough to prioritise retention spend, which is the real use. We report lift over random targeting rather than raw accuracy, because that is what determines the ROI.
Should we fine-tune?
Usually not first. Prompting and retrieval solve most problems more cheaply. Fine-tuning wins for consistent format, narrow domain style, and high-volume tasks where a smaller model can replace a larger one.
How much data do we need?
For LoRA on a narrow task, often a few thousand high-quality examples. Quality matters far more than volume. We review the dataset before training anything.
Can we own the model?
With open-weight base models, yes. You hold the weights and can run them on your own infrastructure indefinitely.
