Consumers across all industries want content that is tailored to their individual interests/needs. Generative models offer a fast way to generate content, but customizing them at scale presents challenges. Developers face obstacles such as time-consuming prompt engineering, tedious fine-tuning, limited tokens and usage, and inaccuracies/illogical output.

Using Meru, developers can craft personalized in-app content for their users. The company's managed cloud platform brings together a variety of generative models and customization techniques, all accessible through a simple set of API calls. Meru connects siloed or personal data with generative tools, resulting in outputs that accurately interpret and reflect the underlying data.

The Meru team is on a mission to make life a little less mundane by providing solutions for professionals struggling to sift through lengthy texts in search of crucial information. The company also enables parents to create storybooks featuring their children as the main character, with illustrations that bring their child's imagination to life, whether as an astronaut, superhero, or anything else.

If you're interested in utilizing a supported feature, don't hesitate to reach out. Meru can support you in providing your users with:

• An experience that feels like chatting with a document or piece of content
• Personalized stable diffusion to generate images of themselves
• Training models to write and sound like they do

The company also specializes in fine-tuning and hosting open-source models, which perform even better than anticipated.
