How much does data annotation for financial services cost?
Our pricing is transparent, highly competitive, and strictly based on the complexity of the task. For financial AI, Business and STEM Generalist annotation is priced at $12/hr. For complex quantitative reasoning, our LLM Math/Coding experts are $18/hr. If you are utilizing the Abaka Forge platform, credits are just $0.20 USD each. We tailor our pricing structures to fit project-based or long-term enterprise engagements.
How quickly can you scale a financial document labeling team?
We move exceptionally fast. Custom pipeline design and initial pilot batches are typically completed within Days 0–3. By Week 2, we fully onboard our vertically specialized financial annotators and scale up production. Our massive network can handle peak loads, processing up to 500 files per day per annotator.
What document formats and modalities do you support?
We support comprehensive modalities for financial AI, including Text, Image, Audio, and LLM RLHF. Whether you need JSON and Parquet for conversational AI, bounding boxes on PDFs (COCO, YOLO) for 10-K extraction, or transcription (SRT) for earnings calls, Abaka Forge processes and delivers it securely.
How do you ensure high accuracy for complex financial terms?
We guarantee a 99% accuracy SLA. We achieve this by deploying scholars and professionals with dedicated backgrounds in business and finance. Every dataset undergoes strict, multi-layer quality assurance, with senior reviewers verifying the exact nuance of financial terminology and algorithmic logic.
How do you handle sensitive banking and financial data securely?
Data security is our foundation. We maintain strict SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and CCPA compliance. All annotation happens within segregated secure pipelines under strict NDAs. We ensure your proprietary financial data is never exposed and remains entirely within secure, monitored environments.
Can you annotate international financial documents in multiple languages?
Yes. Our workforce spans 50+ countries, allowing us to provide native-level expertise in dozens of languages. We routinely annotate international tax forms, global news sentiment, and multinational compliance documents, ensuring accurate localization for your global AI systems.
Why choose Abaka AI over generic crowdsourced labeling platforms?
Standard platforms rely on gig workers lacking technical expertise, leading to high hallucination rates in complex domains. We provide vertically specialized scholars, a strict 99% accuracy guarantee, and enterprise-grade security. Furthermore, we never build models that compete with you—we are a pure data partner.
Can we adjust our annotation guidelines during the project?
Absolutely. Financial regulations and model requirements evolve rapidly. We offer a highly agile workflow, allowing your data science team to update guidelines iteratively. Our project managers quickly retrain the dedicated annotator pod to align with your updated specifications.
Do you offer a pilot program for financial data annotation?
Yes, we always begin with a rigorous pilot phase during Week 1. This allows us to establish the custom workflow, calibrate our financial annotators against your specific guidelines, and ensure output formats integrate perfectly with your ML pipelines before full-scale production.
Who owns the intellectual property of the annotated data?
You retain 100% ownership of your data and the resulting annotations. Your data is exclusively yours—it is never repurposed, resold, or shared with third parties. We provide full IP provenance, guaranteeing 0% copyright risk on all collected and annotated data.
What platform do you use for data labeling?
We utilize our proprietary all-in-one platform, Abaka Forge. It handles data collection, cleaning, and annotation for all modalities. It leverages large-model automation to speed up workflows up to 50x, though we also seamlessly integrate with your internal tooling if preferred.
Is there a minimum project size for enterprise financial annotation?
We are built for elastic scalability, supporting both agile startups and global financial institutions. While we specialize in high-volume, continuous data pipelines, we are happy to discuss minimum engagement scopes for specialized, high-complexity pilot programs.
