What to ask Segments.ai before you sign
- Which data types and label tools come with the plan we would buy?
- Can we export every label in our own format if we leave?
- Does the plan include model-assisted labeling, or is that an extra cost?
- Would we provide our own labelers, or are you also able to supply a team?
Would you rather have people do the labeling for you? Describe the job once and three annotation companies reply.
