European by design. GDPR-compliant by default.

Most annotation providers route your data through offshore crowds you can't audit. exhaustvalve is different: we operate from the EU, our annotators are employed and trained in the EU, and your data is stored and processed exclusively on EEA infrastructure. We sign Data Processing Agreements, support anonymization and pseudonymization workflows, and help you stay ahead of the EU AI Act's data governance requirements.

From pilot to production in five steps

A transparent workflow that lets you validate quality risk-free before scaling up.

1

Free pilot

Send a data sample and guidelines. We annotate it free of charge within days.

2

Quality review

You evaluate the pilot against your acceptance criteria and edge cases.

3

Tailored proposal

Transparent pricing per labeled object or per annotation hour — your choice.

4

Production labeling

A dedicated team annotates at scale with three-stage review and gold-set checks.

5

Delivery & iteration

On-time delivery in your format, with feedback loops to refine guidelines.

Quality you can audit, not just trust

Label quality is the biggest limiting factor on model performance. That's why every dataset we deliver passes through traceable quality gates — never a single pair of eyes.

  • Three-stage human review.

    Annotation, peer cross-check, and senior QA sign-off on every batch.

  • Gold sets & inter-annotator agreement.

    Continuous benchmarking against gold-standard references with measurable agreement scores.

  • Edge-case escalation.

    Ambiguous items are flagged, documented and resolved with your team — improving guidelines as we go.

  • Domain expert validation.

    Medical, legal, financial and linguistic specialists validate domain-sensitive datasets.

Tool-agnostic by principle

We work in your annotation environment or ours — CVAT, Labelbox, Label Studio, Datasaur, or your proprietary in-house platform. Your data formats, your export schemas, your MLOps pipeline.
