Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Labelbox and Intuitive, not ours.

> The team scaled signal throughput, lowered the overhead of gathering performance and quality metrics, and doubled the speed at which they deliver training signal for their multiple ML models.

> We rely on collaborative software to help align our different teams such as our clinical teams and data science teams to ensure that we have a clearly defined ontology.
