AI-Ready Data Services

Human Expertise Behind Your Training Data

Every AI model inherits the strengths and the blind spots of its training data. Zilo AI’s data annotation services give AI teams trained people and structured workflows for image and video annotation, audio transcription, text and multilingual labeling, RLHF and AI evaluation, backed by 3000+ trained text annotators, 2500+ trained image annotators and 2000+ language experts across 22 languages.

Work with us the way your pipeline needs. Hand over a complete project and receive QA-checked datasets in your format, or add dedicated annotators, raters and AI trainers who work inside your tools and processes. Either way, every engagement starts with a calibrated pilot, runs with multi-level review and gives you a single point of contact from the first batch to ongoing delivery.

Images, video, LiDAR, documents, text, audio and LLM conversations, labeled to your taxonomy and format.

Trained Teams

Annotators, linguists, raters and AI trainers who learn your guidelines before they label production data.

Built-In QA

Pilot batches, calibration, multi-level review and gold-standard checks keep quality steady as volumes grow.

Outsource or Extend

Hand us a managed annotation project or hire dedicated annotators to extend your in-house data team.

What We Annotate

Five Annotation Services, One Data Partner

Open any service to see the annotation types, tools and specialist roles involved. Each one can run as a managed project or be staffed with dedicated annotators.

Image & Video Annotation

Bounding boxes, segmentation, keypoints, object tracking and 3D LiDAR labeling for computer vision, by trained annotators. 6 roles

FAQs

Data Annotation Services: Common Questions

Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Our team is happy to help — reach out and we’ll respond quickly.

Talk to Our Team

What data annotation services does Zilo AI provide?

Our data annotation services span five areas: image and video annotation including LiDAR, audio and speech annotation, text and multilingual NLP labeling, RLHF and AI trainer support for LLMs, and human evaluation such as search quality rating, AI response rating, AI safety moderation and annotation QA. Each can run as a managed project or with dedicated annotators.

Should we outsource annotation or hire dedicated annotators?

Outsource when you want finished, QA-checked datasets without managing people: we handle staffing, training, review and delivery. Hire dedicated annotators when labeling is continuous and closely tied to your team, so they work in your tools under your direction. If you are unsure, a managed pilot batch is a low-commitment way to compare.

How do you keep annotation quality consistent at scale?

Quality is built into the workflow rather than checked at the end. A pilot batch tests your guidelines, calibration sessions settle edge cases with your team, and production runs with multi-level review, gold-standard and consensus checks and QA sampling before delivery. Recurring errors go back into annotator training, and guidelines evolve with your data.

Do you annotate LiDAR, 3D point cloud and video data?

Yes. Our vision teams fit 3D cuboids and point-level labels to LiDAR and radar point clouds, keep object IDs consistent across sweeps and link them to camera frames for sensor fusion. For video, they track objects across frames and label actions and events with timestamps, exporting to KITTI, COCO or your own schema.

Which transcription styles and formats do you support for ASR data?

ASR transcriptionists work in verbatim, clean-verbatim or normalized styles, following your rules for fillers, numbers and non-speech tags, with speaker diarization and utterance- or word-level timestamps. Deliverables include JSON or JSONL, SRT and WebVTT captions, Praat TextGrid, ELAN EAF and RTTM files, or a custom schema agreed during the pilot.

Can your AI trainers support RLHF and LLM fine-tuning?

Yes. AI trainers write SFT demonstrations, rank and compare model responses, grade outputs against your rubric and red-team for unsafe behavior. For coding, math, STEM and finance tasks we bring in domain expert trainers, and every trainer is calibrated on your rubric and reviewed through gold tasks before and during production.

What do your search quality raters and AI response raters evaluate?

Search quality raters judge whether results, ads and recommendations match the intent behind a query, including page quality and locale fit. AI response raters score chatbot and LLM answers for helpfulness, accuracy, instruction following and safety, often side by side across model versions, and turn rating patterns into insights your team can act on.

Can you handle multilingual annotation projects?

Yes. With 2000+ language experts across 22 languages, including German, French, Spanish, Arabic, Mandarin, Korean and Vietnamese, we support multilingual text, speech and evaluation work. Annotators are matched to both the language and the subject domain, so labels reflect local meaning, idiom and intent rather than literal translation.

How do we start a data annotation project with Zilo AI?

Share sample data, your label taxonomy or guidelines, expected volumes and preferred output format. We scope a pilot batch, which can usually begin within a few working days, agree on quality checks and turnaround with you, and scale the team once the pilot output meets your expectations. Your data stays in secure, access-controlled workflows aligned to your data-handling requirements.

Can Zilo AI also help us hire AI engineers?

Yes. Alongside annotation, Zilo AI provides IT staffing services for AI engineers, data scientists and cloud data engineers, so the people who build your models and the data they learn from can come from one partner.
