What our members are saying
“Wading through a list of 'data vendors' in the marketplace today is a daunting and time consuming task. The program provided us with a validated list of vendors that we could work with and that helped us hit the ground running. We had tried to do this project before and couldn't get the right partner. This time around we went from project plan to completion in a month! The labeled data is already being used in the next iteration of our model and is a huge advantage in us being able to outpace the competition.”
