Sama: Early implementations of automation combined with targeted human judgment have resulted in a 40% reduction in annotation time requirements

Sama, the leader in purpose-built, responsible enterprise AI with agile data labeling for model training and performance evaluation, announced the launch of Sama Automate, a new data automation platform that offers faster, more efficient data annotation capabilities while prioritizing critical human-in-the-loop (HITL) feedback. This balanced approach for human-verified automation has demonstrated a 40% reduction in annotation time while achieving quality hitting Service Level Agreements (SLAs) in early implementations of the platform, with the goal to further reduce that effort by 10x before the end of the year.
