Background and Challenges of Service Release

In recent years, Japan's generative AI market has been growing rapidly, and the market for research and development and reinforcement learning fields continues to expand as well.

Since its establishment, Ingcloud has provided outsourcing services in the BPO field for over 10 years. Traditionally, requests were mainly for data collection of handwritten characters, transcription of audio, and relatively simple annotation tasks. However, in recent years, there has been an increase in consultations regarding advanced dataset construction for generative AI and more complex annotation.

Along with the increasing sophistication of these needs, many companies have expressed concerns such as "conventional partners found it difficult to provide adequate support" or "we commissioned other companies, but could not obtain effective data." In response to this background, Ingcloud has utilized its accumulated knowledge and achievements to launch "Anoken" as a new specialized service. Moving forward, we will continue to provide meticulous and high-quality solutions for increasingly diverse and sophisticated needs.
