Automated data labelingÂ
with LLMs and humans
Build the ideal data pipeline with LLMs, our trained crowd, and expertsÂ
for optimal price, quality, and throughput
Who is labeling your data?
LLMs now offer a powerful data labeling option, but the decision to use LLMs isn't straightforward.

Quality. LLMs perform on par or better than humans in some tasks, but need guidance.
Speed. LLMs can offer better throughput, but may need fine-tuning.
Price. LLMs might be cheaper or more expensive than manual labeling, depending on the project setup.
We leverage machine learning and humanÂ
expertise for optimal speed and quality
Toloka has the know-how to apply LLMs, domain experts, and data quality controls exactly where you need them.

LLMs need human oversight
Here are just a few examples of data labeling challenges for LLMs
Ambiguous tasks
- Task type:Search relevance
- Issue:Ambiguity in "reasonably well" type of instructions
- Reason:LLMs often have different logic from humans
Outdated pre-training dataset
- Task type:Product similarity
- Issue:New products or new brands
- Reason:LLMs hallucinate about things theyÂ
were not trained on
LLMs incorrectly interpretÂ
slang and shorthand
- Task type:Data cleaning
- Issue:Typo correction
- Reason:LLMs aren't trained to understandÂ
all languages equally well
We find the best language model for your taskÂ
and support it with human input for reliable results
Guidance for LLM implementation in annotation projects | Open AI type LLMs | Smaller LM fine-tuned on project data |
| Available data | Few shots | 10K labelled examples |
| Type of tasks | Tasks within domain of tasks best performed by LLMs | Wide range of tasks |
| Flexibility | Flexibility within available context window Inability or high cost of fine-tuning | Relatively low cost of fine-tuning |
| Cost | High cost per label | Low marginal cost per label after fine-tuning |
