What their customers say
Quotes from people at Appen's customers.
“When we changed to Appen, within a few weeks, we saw that labeler accuracy go up to 88% and it stayed in the high 80s and 90s for us ever since, even across a large diversity of models. That’s been a really, really big win.”
“Appen’s expertise and ability to scale has provided Trust Lab with the ability to provide user sentiment metrics to our clients to ensure their platforms are safe for everyone.”
“Before we settled on Appen, I wondered how I could know what my agreement metrics were—that had been a huge part of the workload when we were doing it ourselves. The fact that Appen has it all right there, with a project as subjective as emotion, I can be really confident in what we're getting back and have those numbers to back up the work that we're doing.”
“I really appreciate Appen’s flexibility and the amount of control that I have over my projects. I want to go in and make the page look exactly how I want it to look. And I want to present the questions exactly as I envisioned. I have that amount of fine-grained control with Appen’s platform.”
“Appen is so fast. Using their platform, we could do overnight what used to take us a month. Appen is wonderfully efficient.”

“We were thrilled to achieve our desired level of quality at the scale that we needed on the Appen platform to train our new citation intent classification model.”
“We were able to quickly go through different iterations of annotation tasks with our crowd workers and understand what was working and what wasn’t. The fact that the quality control features are already built into the Appen platform makes task setup even easier.”
““What's really key is the guaranteed throughput more than anything, because that means I can give customers a definitive deadline, which I could never do before we started working with Appen. And I can get back to them with quality and quantitative numbers.””
“Appen provided the integration of different tools and options in terms of using our internal labelers. Being able to monitor contributor performance and have a system that's already integrated with that capability was super helpful. Not to mention the scalability of it.”
