Meet Our Client

A global leader in crop science innovation and technology dedicates their research to empowering farmers with the tools they need to make informed decisions about their crops, ensuring a more sustainable and profitable future for farmers worldwide.

The company has been developing a new computer vision service to help farmers make better choices regarding the selection and application of farming products. To do so, they needed to quickly analyze various crop types to prove their concept for broader adoption.

Their Challenge

This company faced a few key challenges while developing the computer vision service that needed to be addressed:

  • Providing analysis on many different crop types to prove their new application concept for broader adoption.
  • Adjusting for the complexity of seasonality that would stagger projects across the year.
  • Requiring Ph.D. levels of understanding for AgTech subject matter.

To support its ambitious AI and ML service, this company wanted to partner with a reputable AI data platform company with leading data labeling capabilities.

The requirement? The partner needed to quickly launch new projects, automate tasks even with small datasets, and seamlessly scale up or switch between use cases.

They chose CloudFactory's Accelerated Annotation for its iterative, AI-driven workflows that drive quality, accuracy, and speed.

CloudFactory has helped us improve our ML workflow by 40%, which is fantastic. It reduced our overall investment by 90% to get high-quality annotations for the model," says an AI/ML Engineering Leader at an AgTech company.
