Transcription Specialist

What are we looking for?

We are Aya Data, we provide data labelling and transcription services to companies with machine learning projects to enable them to train their Artificial Intelligence models.

Much like how a human being learns from seeing and reading, Artificial Intelligence learns from visual and text data. The more data it interacts with the better it can understand the world. However, this data must be prepared in the correct way (labelled) before it can be used to train AI.

Aya Data's Transcription team is focused on helping companies in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) sector to train their AI models to understand English. What it means in practice is taking large amounts of audio, and transcribing it in a way that a machine can understand it.
