How much does your model training data cost?
Our pricing is highly transparent, globally competitive, and strictly usage-based to ensure cost efficiency. For highly specialized technical tasks, we charge per hour—such as precisely $18/hr for LLM Math/Coding experts and $12/hr for STEM Generalists. We also offer standard per-unit dataset pricing, including Stock Images at $0.01/img, Image+Text Pairs at $2.80, and pristine Multilingual TTS audio at $7/hr. This flexible structure ensures you only pay for the precise data volume your frontier models actually require, completely eliminating bloated retainer fees.
How fast can you deliver training datasets?
Speed is a core operational advantage at Abaka AI. We typically complete initial scoping and strategic planning within Days 0–3, followed by a fully operational and calibrated pilot batch by Week 1–2. Once the pilot is officially approved, we initiate full-scale data integration immediately. Our consistent weekly recurring deliveries guarantee a steady, high-volume flow of pristine data directly into your technical pipelines, effectively reducing your internal engineering preprocessing time by up to 70% and drastically accelerating your time-to-market.
What modalities and output formats do you support?
We comprehensively cover every major data modality needed for advanced AI development, including Text, LLM RLHF, Image, Video, 3D/4D Point Cloud, LiDAR + Camera fusion, and Audio. Our highly flexible pipelines can seamlessly export these perfectly structured datasets into your preferred exact formats, including standard JSON, JSONL, Parquet, CSV, COCO, YOLO, and precise ROSbag files. This extensive format coverage ensures our pristine data integrates seamlessly and directly with your existing model training architecture, preventing frustrating operational bottlenecks.
How do you guarantee high data accuracy?
We strictly enforce an uncompromising 99% accuracy standard across all active projects by capping our specialized annotators at a strict maximum of 500 files per day. We exclusively utilize a highly vetted scholar-network for complex, nuanced domains like advanced mathematics, law, and coding. Additionally, we implement highly robust, multi-layer QA processes and continuous expert reviews. This exceptionally rigorous methodological approach completely prevents the severe quality decay commonly seen when utilizing other large-scale model training data companies.
What are your security and compliance standards?
Data security is absolutely our most paramount operational concern. Abaka AI is fully and transparently compliant with rigorous SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and CCPA frameworks globally. We exclusively process all assigned tasks through entirely segregated, highly secure data pipelines rigorously guarded by strict corporate NDAs. This exceptionally robust technical infrastructure guarantees absolute operational confidentiality and ensures there is exactly 0% copyright risk associated with your collected data, thoroughly protecting your foundational model IP.
Do you provide multilingual data collection?
Yes, we proudly maintain an expansive, highly responsive global footprint perfectly spanning over 50 individual countries. This extensive reach allows us to directly source native speakers and highly specialized linguists for perfectly accurate translation, localized sentiment analysis, and culturally nuanced text and audio datasets. We meticulously capture distinct regional dialects and subtle emotional tones to ensure your foundational models are exceptionally robust, remarkably inclusive, and entirely capable of functioning flawlessly across diverse global markets without bias.
How does Abaka AI differ from other model training data companies?
Unlike traditional, highly commoditized vendors, Abaka AI is a fiercely independent, self-funded, and completely profitable entity founded in 2019, totally free from disruptive VC or acquisition pressures. Most importantly, we categorically never build our own foundational models that could potentially compete with yours. Our deep scholar-network expertise, highly stringent 0% copyright risk guarantee, and absolute unwavering commitment to serving solely as your highly secure, trustworthy data partner set us entirely apart in the frontier AI ecosystem.
How do you handle changes to data requirements mid-project?
We fully embrace deep operational agility. Because our specialized teams natively act as a deeply embedded extension of your own engineering staff, we conduct regular weekly syncs to adjust rapidly to your constantly evolving model architectures. If your researchers require sudden shifts in annotation guidelines or entirely new complex prompt structures, we can rapidly recalibrate our global annotators and update the Abaka Forge platform instantly without missing a beat, ensuring total alignment with your innovation goals.
Can we start with a small pilot program?
Absolutely. Every major foundational engagement strategically begins with a tightly scoped, highly monitored pilot batch strictly during Week 1-2. This essential operational phase allows your core engineering team to rigorously evaluate our precise annotation quality, deeply test the specific output formats, and calibrate complex instructions. Once you are entirely satisfied, we safely unlock our massive elastic scalability to deliver millions of completely precise data points per month, completely eliminating initial architectural integration risks entirely.
Who owns the intellectual property of the generated data?
You unconditionally maintain absolute and entirely exclusive ownership of all the precise data we collect and annotate on your behalf. Your data is exclusively yours—it is absolutely never repurposed, secretly resold, or shared with any other external organizations. We provide comprehensive, fully transparent IP provenance tracking for every single file, ensuring your cutting-edge AI models are completely protected from any future copyright claims or devastating legal liabilities in the corporate sector.
What tools do you use for data annotation?
We exclusively utilize our proprietary, incredibly powerful all-in-one Abaka Forge platform. This advanced, highly secure tooling infrastructure masterfully manages the entire data lifecycle—from initial collection and deep cleaning to highly complex annotation, model training, and final production integration. Natively capable of supporting absolutely everything from nuanced RLHF text to massive 4D LiDAR arrays, Abaka Forge actively leverages cutting-edge large-model automation to consistently deliver pristine, highly structured data up to 50 times faster.
Is there a minimum project size or volume requirement?
We purposefully do not enforce any rigid or prohibitive minimum volume requirements. We strategically designed our entire global operations to provide true, frictionless elastic scalability. This highly flexible approach allows you to comfortably begin with highly targeted, extremely low-volume pilot testing to prove baseline viability. Once validated, you can scale elastically and instantly to process millions of highly complex, specialized annotations per month precisely as your model training demands naturally grow and rapidly evolve over time.
