What do we do?

We are on a mission to expedite the AI-age by providing critical tooling infrastructure for engineers to build high accuracy AI models. Our first product is providing high-quality annotations-as-a-service for Autonomous AI (self-driving cars, drones, industrial robots). We're backed by YCombinator, SAIF Partners & Google Launchpad. In the last 18 months, we've established ourselves as a market leader created 200M+ annotations, grown 12X in top line, acquired 50+ enterprise customers across 10+ countries including Didi, Daimler, Ford, Samsung etc.

Why is it important?

High-quality training data is quintessential to improve the precision of ML algorithms. Forbes estimates ML engineers spent 70% of their time in pre/post processing & data management steps. Companies need to build sophisticated tooling (supporting all forms of sensor data), hire and manage hundreds of skilled people to ensure high quality labeled data. Our autonomous driving customers estimate 1 hour of video data needs 800 man-hours of manual human work. Today, at the wake of autonomous car industry only few million kms of data has been labeled and 10x more will be collected before the world sees them on road. Like DevOps is critical to tech implementation, AI Ops will be a big challenge as AI development commercializes in next 5-10 years. We aim to become an AI data platform, a critical part of AI infrastructure stack.

Join us to witness & influence the unfolding of AI, which is the largest technology wave the world will ever see.

Prerequisites To Join Us

We are building a unique product to solve complex operational tasks in real time at scale with the help of data science and crowdsourcing. We are seeking developers with an architectural edge and a zeal for learning new technologies to build robust tech which blends human workforce into reliable services. We are moulding a team of the best and brightest engineers around and strongly believe that a bunch of few exceptional developers can create wonders.

You will be working across a diverse set of products like:

  • Sophisticated products used daily by Data Scientists and Product Managers at top AI and Computer Vision startups in the world for their training data needs
  • Complex 2D and 3D annotation tools for images, videos, and point clouds with AI assistance
  • An advanced work platform supporting our users to create more than 200,000 annotations per day
