Auto Annotation Overview

Auto Annotation streamlines the labeling process on Foundry by leveraging state-of-the-art models, significantly reducing manual effort and potential for human error.

​
Manual Annotation Challenges

We identified several challenges in manual annotation:

  • Laborious and monotonous task execution
  • Higher potential for human error
  • Increased number of Issues during review stage —> Time-consuming correction processes
  • Reduced annotation efficiency at scale

These challenges become particularly significant when dealing with thousands of frames, making automated assistance essential for maintaining both speed and quality.
