Ask HN: Where is the industry to get large amounts of video data annotated?
I'm looking for outsourcing firms to get hours of video data annotated .. on the topic, are there any good open source tools for video annotations ?

- rdabane 10y agoThanks. Would you happen to know where these firms source the human labor from?
- mtmail 10y agoAmazon Mechanical Turk (https://www.mturk.com/mturk/welcome https://www.mturk.com/mturk/welcome) is pretty transparent on their homepage how you can earn money. Amazon also lets you decide how much money per task you're willing to spend. https://gengo.com/ https://gengo.com/ for example has a subpage linked in the footer to attract translators https://gengo.com/translators/ https://gengo.com/translators/ The others, especially with a premium appearance, keep that more separate. I assume they created separate brands or use subcontractors and run "easy money, work from home" classifieds ads in english speaking countries to get people in.
