Data Annotation
Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions necessitate substantial quantities of high-caliber data to yield precise prognostications and effectively engage with end users. Over 80% of all data comprises unstructured information, thereby rendering it incomprehensible and unusable by AI systems. Data annotation services, or data labeling, furnish the requisite framework that enables the AI system to decode and exploit the data for accurate prognostications, problem-solving, and beyond. According to Statista, the global creation of data is projected to surge to over 180 zettabytes by 2025. In light of this exponential expansion and the concomitant shifts in behavior, the machine learning models empowering your AI solutions may necessitate weekly or even daily recalibration.
Teams constructing AI solutions require a robust data pipeline comprising top-notch, human-annotated data that precisely captures contemporary trends in human behavior. Leveraging more than ten years of experience collaborating with prominent global pioneers to bolster or expand their AI endeavors, LXT possesses the expertise to devise a tailor-made data annotation program that caters to a broad spectrum of use cases.
From formulating the AI data annotation methodology to supplying top-tier data, their comprehensive solutions guarantee that clients obtain training data that complies with existing legal and regulatory benchmarks.

Moreover, they operate across multiple annotation modes, be it their proprietary platform, the client’s platform, or within their secure facilities. The quality assurance guarantee ensures that their clients receive training data that meets or surpasses their quality standards.
Search Relevance
Social media platforms and search engine users have high expectations for quick and pertinent outcomes. The machine learning models that drive these solutions require substantial amounts of superior training data, consistently updated, to meet customer experience demands. Additionally, if you aim to reach a worldwide audience, your ML models must incorporate input from local users to ensure the reflection of cultural subtleties.
Search relevance services aid in refining search results, providing more personalized experiences, leading to increased conversions and heightened user engagement. LXT enables the swift creation of a dependable data pipeline to fuel your eCommerce site search, web search, and social media platforms. Their crowd-managed annotation platform and quality methodologies synergistically deliver the top-notch data necessary for building accurate AI solutions and expediting your time to market. Each client engagement is customized to cater to the specific requirements of your particular use case.
Transcription Services
Transcription serves the purpose of training and validating algorithms, depending on the nature of the solution being developed. For instance, speech recognition algorithms utilized by voice assistants and customer service chatbots are trained using recorded speech and the corresponding transcriptions. Similarly, transcribed text from videos can be employed to enhance video captioning and search engine results.
Although transcription automation technologies are available, human involvement remains crucial to ensure high accuracy and inclusivity, mitigate bias, and handle complex scenarios like audio with excessive background noise or low-resource languages. To guarantee superior accuracy in new markets, companies require expedited access to a sizable pool of native speakers proficient in the target languages.
With LXT, you can swiftly establish a dependable data pipeline and allocate your resources toward developing innovative automated speech recognition (ASR) and speech-to-text solutions, voice assistants, chatbots, and more. By leveraging their platform, managed crowd, and quality methodologies, you can acquire high-quality data essential for constructing more precise AI solutions and expediting your time to market.
Every client engagement is tailored to suit the specific requirements of your use case. With their extensive experience spanning over 115 countries and encompassing more than 780 language locales, they can facilitate rapid scaling to reach a broader customer base with products that offer enhanced accuracy.
Image annotation
Image annotation entails generating metadata in the form of labels for image data. This particular form of annotation is employed to construct datasets for computer vision models, enabling them to discern images and extract the requisite information for precise predictions. Image annotation holds a pivotal role in computer vision, a domain of artificial intelligence that educates computers to interpret and comprehend the visual realm. By utilizing annotated or labeled images to train machine learning models, machines can adeptly recognize and categorize objects, subsequently responding to their visual perceptions.
Image annotation services include:
- Bounding boxes: This is the most commonly used type of annotation for computer vision and involves using rectangular boxes to define target objects.
- Keypoint annotation: This type of annotation is used to label a single pixel in the image to indicate an object’s shape and to track variations in objects. It is often used for gesture and facial recognition.
- Image classification: With this image annotation method, the entire image is given a label so that a machine learning model can learn to recognize different characteristics of the same category of object.
- Image captioning: Assigning a natural language description to images allows insights to be extracted that can help improve a variety of applications, from search results to captioning tools for video, and more.
- Semantic segmentation: This image annotation method involves outlining the boundaries between similar objects. It is used for autonomous vehicles, medical image diagnostics, and more.
- Polygon annotation: This type of image annotation involves labeling images with irregular shapes and is the best way to ensure pixel-level precision.
- Object detection: In this form of annotation, several objects are labeled in an image to make distinctions between different types of objects.
- Image transcription: This task involves identifying and extracting text data from images to train computer vision solutions, including Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems.
