The multimodal data layer for computer vision and physical AI teams
Native video, image, LiDAR, audio, text, and sensor-fusion labeling in one workflow, with label lineage and quality controls built for production scale.
Use embedding-based search and model-in-the-loop curation to surface rare edge cases and close distribution gaps before they hurt model performance.
Orchestrate RLHF, rubric-based evaluation, and pairwise comparison for models in production, then route failures back into training.
Access vetted domain experts for annotation and training-ready data collection, fully integrated with the Encord platform.
The data, evaluations and systems behind AI that has to be right.
Human-sourced and expert-annotated training data, including specialist contributors with advanced degrees, at the quality bar frontier labs require.
Public leaderboards plus private benchmarks that test model capability and safety for the most ambitious AI developers.
Platform and services teams that pick the right use case, build the system and take ownership of the outcome.
Agentic systems designed around measurable business outcomes across private equity portfolios, energy and healthcare operations.
