Principal Architect and AI & Data Management Expert, ScienceSoft

What’s best for your project: a custom AI model or a pre-trained one?

If the target solution is to perform common tasks like speech recognition or text summarization, open-source or licensed AI models (e.g., from Microsoft and Amazon) are typically the best option. When customized to suit a particular use case and additionally trained on your data, they demonstrate high accuracy and can significantly optimize development costs. For example, we used five open-source neural network (NN) models to add call transcription and sentiment analysis capabilities to our client’s help desk software product.

Custom models are worth the effort and investment when high precision and exceptional security are required. They are more common for tasks like medical diagnosis, credit risk assessment, and quality control in manufacturing. When from-scratch development is needed, there can be some other ways to optimize costs. For example, one solution is to retrain existing models or use internal and publicly available data sets.

Your Benefits from Partnering with ScienceSoft

  • 1.5–2x faster

    AI development due to high productivity, mature Agile and DevOps culture, and outstanding tech skills of our artificial intelligence consultants and other IT talents.

  • 20–50% reduction

    in AI project costs due to ScienceSoft's expert advice on the project cost optimization and pragmatic approach to the tech stack selection.

97% of Senior Business Leaders Report Positive ROI From Their AI Investments

The figures are from the 2024 EYAI Pulse Survey that analyzed the responses of 500 executives from the senior vice president level and up. Below, you can see what business areas are positively impacted by AI and the percentage of leaders who acknowledged this influence.

Business Areas Positively Impacted by AI

ScienceSoft’s Approach to Artificial Intelligence Consulting

Data protection

When building AI-powered solutions, we apply the three-pillar approach to effective data security management:

  • Transparency – personal data collection and processing are only performed with users’ consent.
  • Strong security – to create a protected environment for data processing and storage, ScienceSoft incorporates security practices into the development processes (DevSecOps).
  • Compliance – delivered AI-powered solutions are fully compliant with industry and legal requirements (HIPAA, GLBA, GDPR, etc.).

Data quality

To enable high data quality, we engage certified data engineers and data scientists who employ a wide set of tools to automate data validation, cleansing, and reduplication processes.

Guaranteed value of the AI solution

To ensure the viability of your future AI solution, the speed and quality of the AI-enabled insights, we:

  • Start an AI project with a proof of concept to display how the solution will work, estimate its potential value, voice concerns, etc.
  • Balance the system’s transparency with the accuracy of the output by using a combination of white box AI models that have understandable relationships between variables and output predictions and black box AI models based on deep learning algorithms that are not explainable by themselves.
  • Check the quality and viability of the developed solution against the agreed quality KPIs.
