The global data annotation tools market held a market value of USD 1,186.9 Million in 2021 and is projected to reach USD 13,287.9 Million by the year 2030. The market is anticipated to register a CAGR of 30.9% during the forecast period.

Data annotation tools can be on-premise, cloud-based, or containerized software solutions that can be utilized to annotate production-grade training data for machine learning. The data annotation tools industry is growing steadily due to the enhanced application of artificial intelligence, rising demand, and investing strategic activities by the key players. For instance, in October 2020, CloudFactory, a global leader in managed workforce solutions for artificial intelligence introduced a new computer vision offering, Data Annotation Solution, that bales their professionally managed workforce with a market-leading data annotation platform.

On the other hand, the data privacy compliance standards are not proper in all regions which hamper the market growth to a limited extent. Moreover, AI and machine learning continue to advance, yet many AI disruptors lack the aptitude to process and label the voluminous amount of data vital to feed complex AI, machine learning algorithms. Thus, such elements hinder the market growth.

Growth Influencers:


Rising demand for annotated data to improve machine learning models


The increasing focus and inclination of the major players operating in the industry drive the growth rate of the market. For instance, several firms are focusing on adding value to their current product portfolio and dicing newer technological advancements. For instance, Scale, a San Francisco startup employs a combination of human data labelers and machine learning algorithms to sort through raw, unlabeled streams for clients, such as nuTonomy, Lyft, Zoox, nuTonomy, Voyage, and Embark. Moreover, firms such as DefinedCrown utilize a smart data curation platform, providing a bespoke model-training service to clients in customer service, health care, automotive, retail, and enterprise sectors.

Increasing Investment by the players and technology advancements


The rising investment by prominent players, coupled with the surge in developments in data annotation tools fuel the market growth. For instance, in November 2019, CloudFactory, one of the global leaders in managed workforce solutions for artificial intelligence (AI), secured USD 65 Million in growth equity funding, led by FTV Capital and Weatherford Capital. Such an investment marks an exciting milestone in CloudFactory’s mission of offering meaningful work as the company seeks to scale operations while continuing to deliver high-quality data work for its global customers. Such measures drive the market growth.
