Question 1

How much does data annotation cost with Corpshore?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on modality, volume, languages, and turnaround, but Corpshore typically delivers a 50 to 70% cost advantage versus US-domestic providers. Use the estimator for an indicative band, then scope a pilot for a firm quote against a real sample of your data.

Question 2

Do you charge platform or seat fees?

Accepted Answer

No. Corpshore prices engagements on the work delivered, with the assumptions shown, not per-seat or per-license platform fees. Because the model is an operator rather than a marketplace, there is no per-task bidding markup layered on top.

Question 3

Can I get a firm quote?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Share your modality, volume, and languages through a pilot scope and Corpshore returns a firm quote, timeline, and team plan. Running a small pilot first means the production quote is grounded in measured throughput on your actual data rather than an estimate.

Question 4

How is AI data pricing structured?

Accepted Answer

Engagements are priced by four drivers: modality, such as text, image, or LiDAR, total volume, the number and rarity of languages, and required turnaround. More complex modalities and faster turnaround raise the per-unit cost, while larger, steadier volumes lower it, which is why a scoped quote is more accurate than a single headline rate.

Question 5

Why is Corpshore cheaper than US-domestic providers?

Accepted Answer

The 50 to 70% advantage comes from delivering through in-region hubs where skilled talent is available at fair local rates, not from cutting quality or underpaying workers. The same three-tier QA cascade and 97%+ accuracy standard applies regardless of where the work is delivered.

Question 6

Is there a minimum project size?

Accepted Answer

Corpshore staffs dedicated pods rather than one-off micro-tasks, so engagements are sized around a real program of work. A pilot is the standard entry point: it is small enough to validate fit and price, and large enough to produce a representative measurement of quality and throughput.

Question 7

How does a pilot lead to a full quote?

Accepted Answer

A pilot runs a representative slice of your data through the real pipeline, which establishes actual per-unit throughput, accuracy, and edge-case handling. Those measured numbers, not assumptions, become the basis for the firm production quote, timeline, and team plan.

Question 8

Are there hidden fees or long-term lock-in?

Accepted Answer

No. Pricing shows its assumptions, and there are no hidden platform or seat charges layered on the delivered work. Engagements are scoped to your program rather than a mandatory long-term license, so cost stays tied to work actually delivered.
