Proceedings of the 63rd Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (Volume 6: Industry Track)

The vast portion of workloads employing LLMs involves answering questions grounded on PDF or scanned content. We introduce the Arctic-TILT achieving accuracy on par with models 1000× its size on these use cases. It can be finetuned and deployed on a single 24GB GPU, lowering operational costs while processing rich documents with up to 400k tokens. The model establishes state-of-the-art results on seven diverse Document Understanding benchmarks, as well as provides reliable confidence scores and quick inference, essential for processing files in large-scale or time-sensitive enterprise environments. We release Arctic-TILT weights and an efficient vLLM-based implementation on a permissive license.
