Scikit-LLM is a Python library designed to streamline the development of complex and production-ready NLP pipelines. It achieves this by offering a conventional scikit-learn API, thus abstracting the complexity of working with different large language models (LLMs).

Scikit-LLM can interact with a variety of LLM providers, whether they are running locally (such as GPT4All) or in the cloud (including Azure, OpenAI, and Vertex AI).

The library supports a wide range of text analysis tasks, including text classification and text-to-text modeling. For complex scenarios, multiple tasks can be chained together to form a scikit-learn pipeline.

Additionally, Scikit-LLM supports various prompting strategies (such as zero-shot, few-shot, and dynamic few-shot) and tuning options, which can significantly enhance model performance on a specific task.
