With algorithms available for free and computing resources increasingly commoditized, high-quality labeled training data is the most valuable asset for enterprises adopting supervised learning solutions. To build real-world applications, machine learning teams need robust infrastructure that is able to import raw data into labeling workflows, allowing enterprises to manage widely distributed annotation teams, monitor quality, adjust for bias, and export high-quality labeled training data to machine-learning models.

Labelbox functions like a command center for enterprise data. It automates the process with a pre-labeling web-based platform so that enterprises can connect and collaborate easily across databases, BPOs and labeling services regardless of time zone or geography. Labelbox customers report accelerating iteration cycles by up to 800 percent using the platform and cutting development time in half in pushing new models into production.

Labelbox is currently being used by industries as diverse as aerospace, agriculture, automotive, insurance, healthcare, media, military intelligence, travel and more with hundreds of customers that include Airbnb, Arcelor Mital, BASF, Bayer, Black & Decker, Bristol Myers Squibb, Genentech and Warner Brothers.
