The Framework Journey
Phase 1: Meritocratic Triage
Rapid Triage pinpointed LLM architecture as root cause of accuracy gap
Outcome: FIX verdict with domain-specific fine-tuning roadmap
Phase 2: Advantage Validation
Advantage Validation proved 99%+ accuracy achievable with hybrid approach
Outcome: PoC hit 99.2% accuracy on test dataset
Phase 3: Total Acceleration
Total Acceleration deployed production system with validation layer
Outcome: 99.7% accuracy, enterprise partnership signed
The Challenge
InsightBooks' LLM-powered automated bookkeeping tool was achieving only 87% accuracy—far below the 99%+ required for production use. Processing times were slow, and the founding team had hit a wall trying to improve performance.
Triage Analysis
Scorecard Progress
Key Findings
- General-purpose LLM insufficient for accounting domain
- No validation layer for high-stakes outputs
- Processing architecture not optimized for batch operations
- Strong team with clear domain expertise
Critical Actions
- Implement domain-specific fine-tuning approach
- Add rule-based validation layer for critical outputs
- Build human-in-the-loop escalation for edge cases
- Optimize batch processing architecture
The Solution
Our Rapid Triage identified the root cause: the team was using a general-purpose LLM without proper fine-tuning or domain-specific context. Our Fix roadmap included implementing a hybrid approach combining fine-tuned models with rule-based validation, plus a human-in-the-loop escalation system for edge cases.
The Results
- 99.7% accuracy achieved (up from 87%)
- 5x improvement in processing speed
- 94% client retention rate
- Partnership with major accounting software provider
- Processing 50,000+ transactions daily
"The triage pinpointed exactly why we were stuck at 87% accuracy. Their fix roadmap was incredibly detailed—we knew exactly what to do. Three months later, we hit 99.7% and signed our first enterprise partnership."
