Could you build this?
No Creating a custom ternary quantization and optimized inference engine for 27B parameter models on Apple Silicon MLX requires low-level GPU kernel programming and deep quantization research.
What it would actually take: This project requires custom Apple Metal Shading Language (MSL) compute kernels optimized for 1.58-bit / ternary matrix multiplications (packing -1, 0, 1 into bit representations and using fast bitwise operations). The engine must integrate tightly into Apple's MLX C++/Python framework, managing unified memory hierarchy and Apple Silicon threadgroups. Deep expertise in GPU microarchitecture, low-bit quantization theory, and Metal assembly/kernel profiling is mandatory.

Nobody's really built a model & infra tool for Fintech yet.
