Importing a Model Card from Text
Common questions this page answers:
- How do I populate a model card from existing documentation?
- What text formats does the import feature support?
- What happens when I run the import?
- Why can I not see the "Import from Text" button?
If your model already has documentation - such as a HuggingFace model card, a system card, or other written documentation - you can use Bailo's text import feature to automatically extract relevant information into your model card form.
This feature requires an administrator to configure an LLM endpoint. If you do not see the Import from Text button, contact your Bailo administrator. See LLM Import for setup instructions.
How to use
- Create your model following the normal workflow - provide a name, description, and select a schema
- Navigate to your model's Overview tab and click Edit Model Card
- Click the Import from Text button in the toolbar
- In the dialog that appears, paste the full text of your existing model card or documentation
- Click Extract - the system will analyse the text and extract information into the schema fields
- Review the extracted data - the form will be populated with any information that was found. Fields that could not be populated from the source text will remain blank
- Make any corrections or additions, then click Save
What to expect
- The extraction only uses information that is explicitly present in your source text. It will not guess or infer values
- Some fields (such as internal references to data cards or user entities) cannot be populated from text and will always remain blank
- You can run the import multiple times if needed - each import replaces the current form data
- The extracted data is always presented for your review before saving. Nothing is saved automatically
Supported formats
The import works with any plain text model documentation, including:
- HuggingFace model card README files
- AI system cards (for example Claude or GPT model cards)
- Internal model documentation
- Any structured or unstructured text describing a model
