Our solution features a custom two-stage search pipeline that retrieves relevant document pages, paired with a specialized Ukrainian language model fine-tuned on synthetic data to generate accurate, grounded answers. Finally, we compress the model for lightweight deployment. Evaluated under strict computational limits, our architecture demonstrates that high-quality, verifiable AI question answering can be achieved locally on resource-constrained hardware without sacrificing accuracy."
