The data annotation tools market is experiencing significant growth. The market was valued at USD 805.6 million in 2022 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 26.5% from 2023 to 2030. The growth is primarily driven by the increasing adoption of image data annotation tools in the automotive, retail, and healthcare sectors. Data annotation tools enable users to enhance the value of data by adding attribute tags or labeling it, making it more interactive and engaging.
The COVID-19 pandemic has also contributed to the acceleration of the data annotation tools market. During the pandemic, demand for data annotation tools grew due to machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies. The growth in text annotation for document classification has also been a key variable driving the market during the pandemic’s onset. However, the recovery of the global market may be delayed by a shortage of skilled professionals and workers.
AI-assisted data labeling tools are an important research topic in computer vision and have many practical applications in fields like robotics, self-driving cars, medical and aerial imaging, etc. One of the key factors that companies consider when developing AI-assisted data labeling tools is the acceleration of the annotation process, primarily for the semantic and instance segmentation tasks. In recent years, there have been several techniques that researchers used to improve the quality of such algorithms in a given fixed timeline.
The key drivers of growth in the data annotation tools market are as follows:
1. Increasing adoption of image data annotation tools in the automotive, retail, and healthcare sectors.
2. Growing need to make text/image more interactive and engaging.
3. Rapid penetration of AI and machine learning.
4. Growing R&D spending on the development of self-driving vehicles.
5. Increased deployment of data annotation tools by organizations for
their accuracy and for labeling volumes of AI training data.
6. Efficiency of automated data annotation tools.
7. Increasing usage of cloud-based computing resources to annotate large datasets.
8. The rise of AI-assisted data labeling tools, which are important in computer vision and have many practical applications in fields like robotics, self-driving cars, medical and aerial imaging, etc.
However, the data annotation tools market faces several challenges that could hinder its growth. Some of the major challenges are:
1.Lack of expertise and skilled workforce, which can hinder the efficient execution of operations.
2. Shortage of skilled professionals and workers, which may delay the recovery of the global market.
3. Security concerns, which should be at the forefront of any tech professional’s mind, including data annotators.
4. The sheer amount of data needed to train a modern AI model, which can slow production to a crawl.
5. The accuracy of automated data annotation tools, which are less accurate than manual data annotation.
6. The need to produce high-quality annotated data at speed.
