About custom models

To use the custom models feature, you must have an OpenAI key.

You provide the key on the System Settings page. To display the System Settings page, click your user image, then click System Settings.

In addition to the built-in Tonic Textual models, you can create custom models to allow Textual to identify other types of sensitive values that are not included in the built-in models.

For example, you might need to redact terms or identifiers that are specific to your industry or use case, and that are not covered by the built-in models.

When you create a custom model, you provide Textual with:

• The entity types in that model

• Example values for each entity type

• Examples of how the entity type values are used in the context of your data

The example values and usage help Textual to learn how to identify those values.
