AI data crowdsourcing platform Kled has raised $10M and launched V3, which can deploy custom data collection tasks to 500,000+ verified contributors within 72 hours.
The platform offers 108 configurable task templates across image, video, audio, text and annotation — from egocentric video to conversational speech in rare languages — collecting up to 8 million datapoints per day. Each contributor upload is automatically checked against task requirements, e.g. a hands-on video with no visible hands is rejected before entering the dataset.
On the demand side, buyers are increasingly requesting data for robotics, legal work, world models, and image/video generation.
