What is NER?

Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a core task in Natural Language Processing (NLP) that identifies and classifies entities—such as person names, organizations, locations, and dates—within unstructured text.

To do this well, models must first learn from reliable training data that reflects real-world language, custom entity types, and tagging logic. That’s why high-quality human annotation is essential for reliable NER results.

Accurate Entity Annotation is Hard — We De-Risk It

We help ML teams without internal annotation capacity turn unstructured data into training-ready NER outputs with our named entity recognition services —even for niche domains and shifting specs.

Without the right partner, it’s risky

  • No internal annotation team and no capacity to build one
  • Confusion around edge cases and inconsistent guidelines
  • Risks of exposing sensitive data to untrusted vendors
  • No stable workflow for shifting specs and evolving needs

With us, it’s under control:

  • Trained annotation team with NER expertise—ready to launch fast
  • Ensuring clarity, consistency, and high accuracy across tasks by team leads
  • Confidentiality by default—NDA-backed, secured for enterprise data
  • Proven annotation process—built to scale, designed to adapt

Types of Data We Work With

Not all data comes in clean, structured formats. We handle unstructured data from real-world sources — no matter the format.

We support formats such as:

  • Chat transcripts
  • Web-scraped content (HTML, JSON)
  • OCR’d PDFs and screenshots
  • Poorly formatted docs
  • CSVs, JSON exports, and more

Whether it’s raw input or domain-specific content, we prepare it for reliable entity extraction at scale.

Software & Methodology

Full-stack NER annotation service, fully compatible with top NER tools like Label Studio and CVAT.

Label Studio

Label Studio is a flexible, open-source annotation platform with strong support for Named Entity Recognition (NER). It’s ideal for custom workflows and secure, self-hosted deployments.

CVAT

CVAT is a powerful annotation tool built for scalability and team collaboration. Though known for visual data, it offers full support for NER and text-based annotation via task extensions.

Use-cases

Legal Tech

NER models identify custom entity types like medications, diagnoses, and treatments in unstructured texts—supporting research, compliance, and NLP applications.

Healthcare & Pharma

NER models extract custom entity types like medications, diagnoses, and treatments in unstructured texts—supporting research, compliance, and NLP applications by identifying key medical concepts.

Finance

Institutions apply NER systems to extract company names, people, and values from filings and earnings calls—improving information extraction through entity linking between sources.

Customer Support

Support teams use NER to extract key terms and tag people, product issues, and specific categories — powering faster routing, text classification, and insights.

E-commerce

Retailers extract product names and brands from listings and reviews. NER categorizes key information to boost search, organize results, and train custom models.

Media Monitoring

PR teams run entity extraction on news and social media to track named entities like locations, people, and companies—fueling reputation tracking and early detection systems.

Government
& Public Sector

Public agencies extract relevant information from documents, complaints, and reports—improving workflows with entity recognition and labelled data.

Academic & Research

Researchers build labelled training data to train models that identify specific entity types in scholarly texts—powering NER tasks across disciplines.
