Where it fits
If you already have data and need it labeled to your own rules, a labeling platform keeps the work and the guidelines under your control. If you need data you do not have, labeling software does not solve that. You need a source: a data holder, a marketplace or a broker. See our data catalog for the types AI teams license.
