With DataDreamer you can:

• 💬 Create Prompting Workflows: Create and run multi-step, complex, prompting workflows easily with major open source or API-based LLMs.
• 📊 Generate Synthetic Datasets: Generate synthetic datasets for novel tasks or augment existing datasets with LLMs.
• ⚙️ Train Models: Align models. Fine-tune models. Instruction-tune models. Distill models. Train on existing data or synthetic data.
• ... learn more about what's possible in the Overview Guide

DataDreamer is:

• 🧩 Simple: Simple and approachable to use with sensible defaults, yet powerful with support for bleeding edge techniques.
• 🔬 Research-Grade: Built for researchers, by researchers, but accessible to all. A focus on correctness, best practices, and reproducibility.
• 🏎️ Efficient: Aggressive caching and resumability built-in. Support for techniques like quantization, parameter-efficient training (LoRA), and more.
• 🔄 Reproducible: Workflows built with DataDreamer are easily shareable, reproducible, and extendable.
• 🤝 Makes Sharing Easy: Publishing datasets and models is simple. Automatically generate data cards and model cards with metadata. Generate a list of any citations required.
• ... learn more about the motivation and design principles behind DataDreamer.
