Aya Data

Who are we?
We are Aya Data, we provide data labeling services to companies with machine learning projects to
enable them to train their ML models.

create thousands of good jobs in data labeling, but to develop the first center of excellence for AI in

Much like how a human being learns from seeing and reading, Artificial Intelligence learns from visual
