Here at Arcee AI, our definition of a small language model (SLM) is anything with a parameter count of 72B or less.
Despite their smaller parameter count, SLMs can outperform large language models (LLMs) when trained on domain-specific tasks. The reduced size makes SLMs much more cost-effective, resource efficient and delivers lower latency than their LLM counterparts.

Guild Education, a leading education and career advancement program provider, sought a GenAI solution to deliver consistent, customized career recommendations to their diverse users. After ruling out closed-source LLMs due to high costs and limited support, they turned to Arcee AI's SLM approach.
Addressed their data privacy and compliance concerns
Allowed for training on their own data and fine-tuning for their specific use case
All at a fraction of the cost of closed-source LLM providers
Our industry-leading small language models (SLMs) have significantly fewer parameters than LLMs which means they are fast and cost-effective. Our selection of models are purpose-built for specific tasks and data.

Book a DemoA ‘Small’ Language Model is anything with a parameter count of 72B or less. Despite their smaller parameter count, SLMs can outperform LLMs when trained on domain-specific tasks. The reduced size makes SLMs much more cost-effective and resource-efficient, and leads to lower latency compared to LLMs.
The main differences are their size, computational requirements, training time, quality of output, and application scope. SLMs are smaller, require less computational power, train faster, and are often more specialized and better for business use cases. LLMs are larger, more resource-intensive, and take longer to train but are good at handling a broader range of tasks with general purpose.
Key benefits include cost efficiency, security, enhanced task-specific performance, and real differentiation for enterprise AI solutions—ideal for task-specific requirements that streamline operations and drive productivity.
