The new updates focused on text and speech data, enable customers to develop, enhance, and obtain quality training data for their specific AI project or business needs. The updates include:

  • Machine Learning-Assisted Text Annotation
    New text annotation capabilities locate and classify named entity mentions in unstructured text into predefined categories to support entity extraction and span labeling use cases. Users can also now leverage ‘bring your own model’ outputs to accelerate contributor annotations. Machine Learning-Assisted Text Annotation helps natural language processing (NLP) teams scale quality human annotations.

  • Machine Learning-Assisted Text Utterance Collection
    Conversational AI customers can now leverage machine learning validators to collect unique and high-quality text utterances in their domain of choice. Text utterance collection jobs allow customers to leverage the power of a distributed workforce of fluent annotators to collect text strings based on prompts or scenarios to power your conversational agents.

  • Enterprise Analytics 
    Enterprise Analytics provides in-platform reporting on your organization’s usage. For larger enterprises, Enterprise Analytics supports the management of multiple teams across the platform. Organization and team administrators can view in-depth analytics and are then empowered to make data-driven decisions about allocation, resourcing, and ROI.
