A note of thanks · Factory framing

# Baseten

Baseten's account of post-training helped us see the work as a full system: data, reward, performance, evaluation, and delivery. We translated that frame into a factory sized for one Mac.

01 · The idea

## What stayed with us

Post-training is a system of custom data, reward shaping, performance work, infrastructure, evaluation, and packaging rather than a generic fine-tuning screen.

02 · The local translation

## What we did with it

PostTrainLLM was reframed as a Mac-local specialist factory organized around target, data, post-training, evaluation, packaging, and reporting.

03 · The boundary

## Where the comparison stops

The positioning was adopted, not Baseten's hosted infrastructure or scale assumptions.
