Shield 82M drops for multilingual PII filtering
LH-Tech-AI has released Shield 82M, an open-source, 82-million parameter finetune of distilroberta-base designed to strip PII from text across multiple languages with 96% accuracy. The model handles names, emails, phones, and addresses out-of-the-box.
A fast, dedicated 82M parameter model for PII redaction is highly practical for preprocessing sensitive data before feeding it into larger LLMs.
- –Small parameter count makes it incredibly fast and cheap to run locally or at the edge
- –Multilingual support solves a major headache for global applications dealing with mixed-language user input
- –Finetuning distilroberta-base provides a solid foundation for robust text classification tasks like NER/PII extraction
- –Open-source availability enables teams to self-host and ensure data never leaves their infrastructure
