V7 Darwin
V7 Darwin is a web and API data-labeling platform for building training datasets for AI models.
What V7 Darwin is
V7 Darwin is a web and API data-labeling platform for building training datasets for AI models. It handles images, video, DICOM and NIfTI files, microscopy, RLHF, PDFs, and architectural drawings. Annotation options include polygons, bounding boxes, tags, skeletons, keypoints, lines, ellipses, masks, and attributes. AI-assisted tools such as Auto-Annotate and SAM2 can segment objects, while video workflows track objects across selected time ranges and mark when they enter or leave view. External or built-in models can pre-label data, flag quality issues, and be compared with human labelers in blind tests. Teams can configure multi-stage reviews with assigned roles, conditional logic, and automated routing. Integrations include AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure; AWS support covers private S3 buckets and Amazon SageMaker. Exports include Darwin JSON and XML, COCO, CVAT, YOLO, Semantic PNG, Instance PNG, and Pascal VO. V7 states ISO 27001, HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, and GDPR compliance. Pricing is custom and usage-based charges are not published.
