      <title>K-shot training with LLMs</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I built a tool for teaching LLMs how to extract structured data from documents by annotating, not prompt engineering. I’d love your feedback.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;How it works:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Upload a document (DOCX, PDF, image, etc.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Select and tag parts of it (supports nesting, arrays, custom tag structures)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Upload another document → click "predict" → see editable annotations&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Amend them and save as a new example - Call the API with a third document → get JSON back&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Use cases:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Identify "important clauses" in contracts&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Extract "total value" from invoices&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Anything subjective, like "healthy ingredients" on a label&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Anything objective, like "postcode" or "phone number"&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You could even tag things like "good rhymes" in a poem
— basically anything an LLM can understand and extrapolate&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The key idea: instead of iterating endlessly on prompts (and sometimes regressing), you just iterate on examples. Each example improves accuracy in a concrete way, and you need far fewer than traditional ML approaches.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We’re launching on Product Hunt today (currently #5)&lt;br&gt;
