Benefits

  • Get high-quality labeled data
    Toloka provides multiple tools to ensure quality of data labeling (overlap, control tasks, and more). The pipeline comes with these
    tools already set up, and includes a stage dedicated specifically
    to the results verification.
  • Cut time to production
    You don't need to set up the labeling process from scratch.
    Just use the pipeline and get ground truth data to
    improve your ML model.
  • Automate the process
    The pipeline contains Python code which automates the labeling process via the Toloka API. You can use it as-is for face detection
    tasks. If you need to detect any other objects, we will show you
    where and how to tune it to fit your task.
  • Fine-tune to fit your needs
    Our pipeline gives you a quick start, but you can still access all project settings. Tweak it as much and as often as you need to. Our support team can help you along the way.

Success stories

For more than 10 years, Toloka's clients have been successfully solving business challenges. Here are some examples:

Face detection

A startup from Japan labeled 65,000 faces 
in 3 weeks, at a fraction of the expected cost.

FAQ

  • A data labeling pipeline is an end-to-end workflow for labeling a dataset. It includes the process for selecting and training the annotators, managing data labeling, and aggregating and verifying the results. As an output, it provides high-quality labeled data.
  • The pipeline itself is free to use. You only pay for labeling your data in Toloka. To try it for free, you can cover the cost of data labeling with the promo code provided in our tutorial.
  • You can label a dataset of any size. The pipeline fits any project where you need to detect objects in images.
  • If you only have a few classes, you can run labeling for each class separately. If you have too many classes to label in parallel, feel free to contact us. We can help you tune the pipeline to your needs.
  • Yes, it is made specifically to get data labeled in Toloka via the Toloka API.
  • In a nutshell, the quality is ensured by overlap (several people doing the same task) and a separate stage of verification. See our tutorial to learn more.
