💻 Why Lilac?

Lilac is a visual tool and a Python API that helps you:

• Explore datasets with natural language (e.g. documents)
• Enrich your dataset with metadata (e.g. PII detection, profanity, text statistics, etc.)
• Conceptually search and tag your data (e.g. find paragraphs about injury)
• Remove unwanted or problematic data based on your own criteria
• Analyze patterns in your data

Lilac runs completely on device using powerful open-source LLM technologies.
