How Appen uses AI in their company

High-quality data annotation is key for training any AI/ML model successfully. After all, this is how your model learns what judgments it should be making. Our platform combines human intelligence at scale with cutting-edge models to annotate all sorts of raw data, from text, to video, to images, to audio, to create the accurate ground truth needed for your models.

A large majority of our annotation tools have machine learning assistance (MLA) built in to enhance the speed and accuracy of our annotators. Machine learning assistance combines machine predictions with human annotations so that instead of having to create a judgement from scratch, a machine learning model will suggest a judgment, and the human contributor can simply review and edit the suggestion saving time and effort.

With human contributors reviewing machine predictions instead of starting a judgement from scratch, the data annotation time drastically reduces. This enables fast, scalable model deployment along with the peace of mind in knowing that our teams are there to confirm and correct your model predictions if needed.
