Narrative Unveils LLM Fine-Tuning Platform and Rosetta Stone 2.0, Pioneering a New Era of Data Normalization and Custom Model Training

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, Jan. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Narrative, the industry’s leading data collaboration and commerce platform, today announced a groundbreaking suite of enhancements aimed at democratizing AI development and data utilization. Chief among these is the introduction of a new Large Language Model (LLM) fine-tuning capability, enabling companies of all sizes to customize their own AI models directly on the Narrative platform with unprecedented ease. Additionally, Narrative is thrilled to introduce Rosetta Stone™ 2.0, the next generation of the company’s acclaimed data normalization solution, engineered using the very fine-tuning tools now available to customers.

Narrative Unveils LLM Fine-Tuning Platform & Rosetta Stone 2.0, Revolutionizing Data Normalization & AI Customization

A Collaborative and Accessible Approach to LLM Fine-Tuning
At the core of Narrative’s approach is a “collaboration-first” philosophy. Users can now access a broad range of datasets—from proprietary and partner sources to publicly available and marketplace content—to train and refine their LLMs. This approach fosters an ecosystem where content creators and publishers can monetize their work directly, while businesses benefit from a richer, more diverse data pool to power increasingly sophisticated AI models. By removing technical barriers and simplifying the model-building process, Narrative empowers everyone from non-technical operators to seasoned data scientists to craft bespoke language models with a simple point-and-click interface.

Rosetta Stone 2.0: Next-Generation Data Normalization
A centerpiece of today’s announcement is Rosetta Stone 2.0, an evolution of Narrative’s pioneering data normalization capability. Leveraging Narrative’s new LLM fine-tuning platform, the updated Rosetta Stone model delivers remarkable performance gains and expanded functionality. It not only standardizes data automatically across disparate sources, ensuring seamless compatibility and readiness for training, but it also can serve as a foundational base model for customers looking to extend its core normalization capabilities into their specific domain. From ensuring coherent data formats to tackling complex, domain-specific semantic challenges, Rosetta Stone 2.0 is a flexible, next-level tool designed to accelerate data-driven innovation.

Key Features and Benefits:

Easy, No-Code Model Fine-Tuning:
Users can skip the complex coding, configuration files, and intricate infrastructure setups. Narrative’s platform translates raw datasets into meaningful training material through an intuitive, point-and-click interface.

Rich Data Ecosystem & Monetization Opportunities:
Through Narrative’s marketplace, publishers, content creators, and data owners can directly profit by offering their datasets for model training. Simultaneously, developers can tap into a vast reservoir of high-quality information to train models that align perfectly with their use cases.

Rosetta Stone 2.0 Engineered with Fine-Tuning:
Built using the same LLM customization features now offered to users, Rosetta Stone 2.0 exemplifies the power and potential of the Narrative platform. Its advanced normalization techniques handle complex and heterogeneous data sets, and it can be adapted into a specialized normalization model for industry- or business-specific contexts.

Bring fine tuning to your data
Narrative fine tuning is available anywhere Narrative is available, including in Narrative’s cloud and in your organization’s Snowflake, Databricks, AWS, Azure, or GCP account.

Customizing Rosetta Stone for Your Data

Narrative now gives you the option to tailor Rosetta Stone’s powerful data normalization capabilities so it fits your organization’s unique data and terminology—no major system overhauls required. This means you get more accurate and consistent results by aligning Rosetta Stone with your own industry language and internal structures.

When you’re ready to deploy Rosetta Stone, you can choose from different model sizes to strike the right balance of speed, detail, and cost. Simply pick the option that best fits your team’s priorities and infrastructure.

“The launch of our LLM fine-tuning platform and Rosetta Stone 2.0 marks a pivotal milestone in our journey to democratize AI development. With these offerings, anyone can create, refine, and extend powerful language models, and content creators can finally realize tangible value for their contributions. This is what the future of data and AI collaboration looks like—accessible, flexible, and mutually beneficial for all stakeholders.” –Nick Jordan, Founder, Narrative

WESTPORT, Conn., Jan. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Manifest, the industry leading software bill of materials (SBOM) and artificial intelligence bill of materials (AIBOM) management platform, today announced that it has achieved FedRAMP® High authorization through Palantir Technologies’ FedStart program. Manifest can deliver its industry-leading SBOM and AIBOM management platform to government customers in a FedRAMP®-authorized environment.

FedRAMP® High Authorization solidifies Manifest’s status as a trusted data platform to deliver SBOM and AIBOM management

FedRAMP® High authorization provides assurance that Manifest can handle the most sensitive data across the public sector including law enforcement data, healthcare data, or other mission-critical data.

“The ability to manage SBOM and AIBOM data in Manifest brings security and visibility into mission critical applications and models,” said Marc Frankel, CEO, Manifest. “With FedRAMP® High authorization, Manifest will continue to work closely with the Federal Government and its partners to bring SBOM and AIBOM management into their missions. We are honored to support our government customers and to help them secure software and AI supply chains.”

Manifest partnered with Palantir to achieve FedRAMP® High authorization. “We established Palantir FedStart with the aim of empowering companies to deliver solutions to the federal government quickly,” said Ali Monfre, Palantir’s FedStart Program Lead. “It is extremely exciting to see Manifest achieve this milestone through our program, an affirmation of our mutual ongoing commitment to ensuring secure and expedited access to cutting-edge technology for the government users who need it.”

Manifest launched in December 2021 in the wake of the catastrophic Log4shell vulnerability. The world’s most important industries – financial services, healthcare, defense, manufacturing – were left without insight into the open-source and third-party software components in the software they had procured, and Manifest has set out to deliver quantified software supply chain risk to critical infrastructure categories and governments.

Manifest has a proven history of success with various federal agencies, including at the Department of Defense (DOD) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). With the successful achievement of FedRAMP® High authorization, Manifest is well-positioned to continue redefining the future of software and AI security in the public sector.
