Human-validated training data and evaluation services for frontier AI models
Chain-of-thought reasoning traces, SME-level RLHF, supervised fine-tuning demonstrations and adversarial red teaming for the most capable models.
Golden trajectories, RL environment design, failure-mode taxonomies and software-engineering-driven deep evaluation for autonomous agents.
Multilingual ASR and conversational speech data, expressive TTS annotation, vision-language model training data, video action labelling and voice-agent evaluation.
LiDAR point-cloud labeling, multi-camera sensor fusion, robot demonstration trajectories, world-model rollouts and embodied interaction logs.
AI content filtering and parental control that doesn't block the internet
Detects and removes explicit images, video and text as pages load, including suggestive content, without blocking whole sites.
Filters explicit output from tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Grok at the device level, regardless of account or tab.
Detects risky images being sent or received and notifies the parent in real time.
Set daily or weekly downtime rules, block apps, and prevent the app from being removed or disabled.
