Common questions

Do I need detailed annotation guidelines before contacting you?

Not at all. Many clients start with a goal and some sample data. We help you define classes, edge cases and acceptance criteria, then turn them into guidelines.

Can we start with a small pilot?

Yes, and we recommend it. See plans.

How is pricing calculated?

By task complexity, volume, QA level and turnaround. You get indicative pricing during scoping and a formal quote once scope is confirmed. See our rate card.

How do you keep our data secure?

We agree access controls, transfer methods and retention with you before any data is shared, and can sign an NDA at the start. Security practices.
