Content moderation, metadata tagging, subtitle alignment, visual effects annotation, and audience analytics for media and entertainment AI applications.
Platform content policies converted to operational annotation guidelines — with decision trees for edge cases, cultural context notes per market, and severity grading scales. Updated weekly to match evolving platform policies.
Video, audio, text, and image content ingested with metadata (creator, region, category, timestamp). Content queued by priority: live content > reported content > proactive sampling.
Multi-label classification across safety categories (violence, nudity, hate speech, misinformation, self-harm) with severity grading (1-5). Cultural context annotations for market-specific sensitivity.
Genre, mood, theme, and topic tags applied for recommendation engines. Key moment detection (highlights, quotes, plot points) for content discovery and clip generation.
Subtitle timing verified against audio; translation accuracy checked by native speakers; accessibility compliance (WCAG) validated for SDH captions including speaker identification and sound descriptions.
All moderation decisions linked to the specific policy version active at annotation time. Appeals and re-reviews tracked with full decision audit trails for transparency reporting.
Generic annotation vendors can label data. Domain experts label it correctly. Here's why the difference matters in your industry.
A hand gesture that's innocuous in one culture is deeply offensive in another. A historical reference that's educational in one context is hate speech in another. Our market-specific annotators bring cultural fluency that automated systems and single-market teams fundamentally lack.
Platform policies change faster than models can be retrained. Our annotation guidelines are version-controlled and updated weekly to match evolving policies — ensuring moderation decisions reflect current standards, not last quarter's rules.
A mislabeled genre tag doesn't just confuse one user — it degrades recommendation quality for millions. Our multi-dimensional tagging (genre + mood + theme + pace) provides the nuanced metadata that powers precise personalization.
