In machine learning, text annotation acts as the foundation for unlocking the hidden meaning within text data. Unlike object tracking that follows objects across video frames, text annotation meticulously deciphers the sense behind words. Imagine our treasure isn’t gold or jewels, but buried knowledge within text. Text annotation involves creating a treasure map, where words, phrases, or even emotions are labelled and categorized. This map serves as training data for various machine learning models. Deep learning approaches are adept at analyzing these annotated texts, learning the relationships between words and their intended meaning. After training, the model can interpret unseen text data, becoming a master decoder, extracting valuable insights and knowledge. This skill is crucial for tasks like sentiment analysis, machine translation, and chatbots, allowing machines to understand the nuances of human language.
Unleash the power of your text analysis models with our best-in-class text annotation services. We meticulously categorize and enrich your textual data, providing the foundation for superior language understanding. Our expert annotators ensure precise labeling of entities, intents, and other crucial elements, unlocking deeper insights from your text. Rigorous quality checks guarantee consistent and accurate annotations that meet the highest standards. Furthermore, our streamlined workflows deliver exceptional results at competitive rates, making us the ideal partner for all your text annotation needs. Whether you’re a growing startup or a large enterprise, we customize our solutions to your specific requirements. By partnering with us, you gain more than just an annotation service; you gain a trusted advisor in unlocking the true potential of your text data.
- We handle a variety of text formats for annotation. This includes documents, emails, and social media posts. Our text annotation process involves identifying and labeling specific elements within the text. This can include named entities (like people, locations, or organizations), parts of speech (nouns, verbs, adjectives), or sentiment analysis (positive, negative, neutral).
- Streamlining the process, we eliminate the need for a specific folder structure on your end. Our internal systems efficiently manage all organizational aspects.

Transparent Pricing Structure
We follow a clear pricing structure for our text annotation services. Here’s a breakdown of the key pricing structure:
- Fixed Fee for Small Batches: Up to 4000 words cost a flat fee of $280 per batch, regardless of the number of words within that batch.
- Per-Annotation Pricing for Larger Batches: For batches beyond 4000 words, you pay $0.01 per word for Annotation Density 0-0.1, 0.03$ per word for Annotation Density 0.11-0.2, 0.05$ per word for Annotation Density 0.21-0.5, and 0.07$ per word for Annotation Density 0.51+
Here is how to calculate Annotation Density:
- Number of Words (W): The total number of words in the text document you need annotated.
- Number of Annotations (A): The total number of individual annotations placed on the words.
- Annotation Density (A/W): This metric represents the average number of annotations per word. It's calculated by dividing the total number of annotations (A) by the total number of words (W).
To initiate work, you prepay a portion of the total cost based on the batch size, tiered upfront payments are as follow:
- $200 for batches between 4000 and 6000 words.
- $300 for batches between 6000 and 8000 words.
- $400 for batches between 8000 and 10000 words.
- 25% upfront payment for batches exceeding 10000 word.
After the annotations are complete, you pay the remaining balance based on the per-annotation cost.
Understanding Project Complexity
We understand that for some projects, especially those involving complex or subjective text annotation tasks, accurately estimating the number of annotations upfront can be challenging. We offer flexibility in such cases:.
- Estimated Annotation Range: If you're unsure of the exact number of annotations needed, you can provide an estimated range. We'll quote based on that range with a buffer to account for potential variations.
- Pilot Batch Option: For highly complex projects, consider a pilot batch of a few thousand words. This allows us to assess the annotation difficulty and provide a more accurate quote for the entire project.
- Flexible Payment Adjustments: During the annotation process, if the actual number of annotations deviates significantly from the initial estimate, we can adjust the final cost accordingly.
Transparency and Communication
To ensure a smooth and collaborative process we aim for clear communication, centralized information management, and the flexibility to adapt to the specific needs of your project:
- Ticketing System: We recommend creating a ticket in our system to centralize all communication regarding your project. Through the ticket system, we can easily track progress reports, answer your specific questions and requirements, and discuss any adjustments needed throughout the annotation process.
- Open Communication: We believe in open communication. We'll keep you informed about the annotation progress through the ticketing system and proactively reach out if any potential adjustments to the initial estimate are necessary due to project complexity.
