Warehouse Picking Robots: What Your Training Data Strategy Is Missing
Warehouse robots underperform in production not because of the model, but because training data missed the edge cases that matter.
Home / Data services / Annotation and labeling
Action segmentation, affordance masks, language captions, reward signals — at the bar your model deserves.
Annotation and labeling is the process of adding structured metadata to raw robotics data — action boundaries, affordance masks, natural-language captions, and reward signals — so your model knows what happened, where, and why it mattered.
Labeling robotics data requires domain expertise, not just clicking boxes. Our annotators are trained on manipulation, locomotion, and navigation tasks.
Why outsource labeling?
Your engineers should be iterating on architectures, not drawing masks. We scale annotation teams up and down to match your training cycles.
1,200 labels/hr per trained annotator.
48-hour turnaround on standard batches.
14 modalities supported out of the box.

FAQ
COCO, CVAT, YOLO, custom JSON, ROS bag with annotation overlays, and RLDS for trajectory data. If you use an internal format, share the schema and we will build a converter.
Our baseline is 99.4% label accuracy across active programs. We achieve this through multi-pass review, consensus labeling on ambiguous frames, and a dedicated QA team that audits every batch before delivery.
Every label goes through automated validation checks, a human review pass, and a final QA audit. Batches that do not meet your agreed accuracy threshold are re-labeled at no additional cost.
Yes. Send us your label taxonomy, class definitions, and any edge-case guidance before the program starts. We build that into operator training and validation tooling.
Ambiguous frames are flagged in the delivery manifest with a confidence score. You choose whether to include them in training, discard them, or send them back for adjudication.

FROM THE FIELD

Warehouse robots underperform in production not because of the model, but because training data missed the edge cases that matter.

Sub-millimeter precision, HIPAA compliance, and credentialed operators — surgical robot data has requirements general robotics programs cannot meet.

Robotics data quality is not a review meeting. At production scale it is automated validation, per-operator metrics, and same-day feedback loops.

Robot annotation is not image labeling with a new name. Temporal structure and task semantics demand distinct tooling and annotator qualification.

Simulation offers unlimited training data at zero cost. The sim-to-real gap is a structural problem, not a rendering one.

Language models scaled on internet data. Embodied AI must build its data from the physical world — and that changes everything.
Seven services. One synchronized pipeline.
VR and leader-follower robot control logging.
In-person task demos for imitation learning.
RGB-D, LiDAR, force, and tactile streams.
Domain-randomized scenes and sim transfers.
Held-out test sets and success-rate scoring.
Rare scenarios your policy will face in production.
